There are two major errors players make. They either call when they should fold or fold when they should call. Most players tend to have a MO and stay there! It is better to try to make players who call too much call more and players who fold too much fold more. The play of your hands and the plays you make against them to gain/lose more/fewer bets should incorporate this concept. Also psychological edges can be found with many of your opponents, and can be a major factor in these types of decisions

Life is good :-)

Good advice Roy. I currently have one player in my home game that I aply this to. I beat him a couple times early on with big hands and now he is hesitant to play in a hand with me. I find I tend to bet lower when I have a big hand sometimes just so he sees it. I have bet him out of many pots that I couldn't win at showdown. This is on my list of things to watch with other players.
