Message: [QUOTE="-Phil Ivey27, post: 1486697, member: 19294"] This is merely summarizing my general strategy in games. I play tight, and give myself a tight image. It makes no difference to me whether I get action on my aces or not, because if I pick up the blinds and show the aces then I am creating an impeccable image. This opens me up to raising with suited connectors and stealing blinds, as well as pots. As well as it opens me up to 3betting powerfully and playing low pairs and such and creating profit. On top of this image, yes I will get action sometimes on my big hands. Low stakes many people do not pay attention to image, and if I notice this I stay tight and take advantage. Also they remain believing AJ is a great hand and that is where they get crushed by my AQ/AK holding. Whether I am tight or not, many players will see this AJ/A10/KQ/suited connector and give me a quick call and a nice pot to take home. I am tight, yet very very aggressive, and adapt to the field.
