When to play conservative and when not to., FUTRPKRSTR, 3. Sep 2003 11:09

When playing in home games we often play for the same amount the entire time. So I play conservative the whole time never changing my game. Is this the way to go or do I need to turn aggressive some time in the game.

I thought you were a 15 year old kid? Do you go to school? You've been posting on here all day.

Oh, c'mon, stop attacking him with personal insults or demeaning remarks.

Oh, look at me: I'm still defending him even though he's tried to insult me...

Craig,

It seems like you keep asking the same question looking for the "perfect" style to play winning poker. Regardless of how the question is asked you are going to get the same answer. Your play should be determined by the feel of your opponents. ie play the strategy that is going to win you the most money. This takes enough patience to allow yourself to become experienced. I don't know you but you seem to have the typical patience of all 15 year old young men, myself included several years ago, which is none.

In the absence of this I think there is a general consensus that Tight - Aggressive is the best. Hence, you continual questions of whether or not to play conservative or aggressive are missing the mark.

I suspect your inability to quickly latch on to this and many other relatively simple concepts at this point in your life is why many on this board have suggested that you A) wait on playing for real money and B) stay in and excel at your education.

And to save you from typing your typical response, yes I am an amateur who has only been playing for two months. But #1) I am not begging for money on the internet (thanks to my education) and #2) I am able to use correct spelling & grammar simultaneously.
