Message: [QUOTE="nabmom, post: 1868602, member: 63826"] I think what we need is a combination. Playing a very ABC style, because that's what works best. Then adding to that situational play based on the player type you are facing. I guess it could be dubbed "thoughtful exploitation" (just coined that myself and I like it!) To piggyback on what Alaskabill said, I think a HUD is essential for all but the most casual player. That helps with getting a handle on player types when you're moving across multiple tables. I find that I'm most comfortable with 4-5 tables max. I can keep an eye on various players and get a sense of what's happening on the tables. I have my Carbon tables cascaded on my laptop screen (left side) and then pull out any table of specific interest at a given moment to the right side of my screen. I also find that more tables is less fun for me-- I like to keep an eye on the chat (helps to see when someone is on tilt and I'm assuming that players that are chatting are not likely to be multi-tabling). Sorry. I should have indicated why I wanted to have some of our discussion be about this. I wanted to see if you and others here agree on the categorization of the types, the general stats that apply for 6-max (since BR's section on this talks about stats for FR), and then perhaps we could post some HHs that show some of this theory in action. I had thought about linking to this post and making it its own thread, but I wasn't sure if that would simplify things or just make them more complicated! You're very welcome. I don't want to rewrite the book here (folks should go out and buy this one if they're playing at these levels) but I wanted to have a meaningful discussion with enough "meat." [/QUOTE]
