"Do you like Daniel Negreanu?"

Never met him, so how would I know?

"It's called small ball actually (you were close). Basically what rytciaq said is what it is. Stab at small pots and raise a lot. Apparently, he said 75 was a good hand for flopping full houses. When you catch cards playing so many hands, you can get paid a lot".

His playing philosophy is very close to mine. I never bothered to give it a name other than that's how I always played it.

It's basic arithmetic: if there's 1.5BB out there and you raise 2XBB, you're laying 2 to win 1.5 ( 4 : 3 ). Raise it 6XBB like a lot of fish do and that's 6 : 1.5 -- really horrible.

It also allows for cheaper c-bets when you miss.

"Apparently, he said 75 was a good hand for flopping full houses".

Actually, I'd rather flop a straight or bottom two with a king or queen. Having (7,7,5) or (5,5,7) on board looks threatening, and puts you in board lock. Those are hit or miss flops that I don't fool with in high SPR pots.
