Some heads up advice ?

the more hands you play the more you will be on the losing end of some pretty gut wrenching beats. not necessarily bad beats, but ones that make you say "he called my check raise with that on the flop?" my suggestion is to make notes and focus on what is going on entirely. it is great to have a tight image full ring, but when it gets short you will be playing more hands and the hands and situations you call and raise in will determine your table respect. i see nothing 3 betting A7o on the button playing 5-6 handed, but how i play after the flop will make or break me when playing that hand. post flop play, IMO, is a helluva lot more valuable than pre flop play when playing short. in regards to the luckier player winning, sometimes you can play your hand face up with these guy and they still will call you down. look for loose passive players when playing short. i try to be the aggressor at the table, the one that nobody wants to phuck with.
