Thought Of The Month:

I'm playing against the players not the cards, I must identify who can be bluffed and who can't, who will pay me off and who won't.

Fight Fire With Fold.

I've done quite well this past week - cashing in about one in two - and those cashes have all been a 1st or 2nd placing.

However, I have noticed that when I've not been cashing - it has very often been through a mistake of my own - and one I have pointed out to myself on many occasions.

It seems I simply can't believe that anybody in the big blind can be dealt a decent hand - I bluff into them - I don't believe them when they show strength - it is costing me chips, often my tournament life and in the long run; money.

I need to play against them honestly - not try and trap when I pair my nine!!!! Just play it honestly and if they put up resistance or show strength keep it cheap or get out of there - I don't want to have to raise this point again! I don't mind stealing blinds but I have to respect any resistance and show of strength as I would from a player in any other position.
