Your last question asks if it means you’re playing loose. Just the opposite is true – you’re playing very tight.

You are the only one that can REALLY answer this question well. The main thing you need to ask yourself is this – ARE YOU MAKING MONEY?!?

My guess is the answer is “yes”. See if after 3 or 4 months you are still making money with this strategy. If you are, then you should just stick with it. COULD you make more money by trying other things? Probably. But so few people are able to play on-line poker profitably in the long run, if you figure out how to do it consistently, I’d stick with what you’re doing.

My only advice is this: Your strategy of only playing high-quality hands is best suited to a SHORT STACK game. In other words, just buy in for the minimum at a table, or close to the minimum. If you double it, leave the table and buy in somewhere else for the minimum amount.

Sounds like your weakness is being too tight. Do you know what being loose means?

If you raise with Q-Q, I’m going to call you with any two cards, knowing I can just raise anytime an Ace or King hits.

“If you raise with Q-Q, I’m going to call you with any two cards, knowing I can just raise anytime an Ace or King hits.”

haha this is nonsense. He is obviously playing tight, which means most of his raising range consists of A, K if you want to c/r or bet into ot raise every A and K high board you are bluffing into the best hand alot of the time.

This strategy will work fine at the micro limits and possibly the low limits as people are going to pay you off but once you play against half decent players you won’t win. They won’t pay you off as they know you are playing a very strong range and will likely get your whole stack when they outflop you but you still have tptk or an overpair or whatever. They when you are in the blinds they will be opening a massive range to pick up your blinds a large percentage of the time as you will be folding alot.

You are playing very tight and I agree with pdg that I wouldn’t stay at the same table too long playing this way because if the other players are smart they’ll let you have the blinds unless they too have a big hand. Then there are other players who will come over top of you and reraise maybe 5 times your raise. What do you do then? If you are playing very tight I figure you may fold them. Just another reason from my point of view to change tables when people realize you are tight. As for they don’t bluff that often, well I play on a site where you can show 1 or both your hole cards and also see the unturned cards in the flop at whatever point everyone folds and people love to show their bluffs. One can’t say for sure but I think online there is a ton of bluffing along with tons of continuation betting no matter what the flop. But the secret is whatever works for you is what’s best. If you are a plus player you can tinker with your play but stick with your overall plan. Rakeback is another way to increase your profits. Depending on the table limits you play that can really add up over a month.

While playing tight is not necessarily a bad thing, if you never vary your style of play, you’ll probably become known for this (often referred to as a ‘rock’). This means when those good cards do come along, you’ll have a tough time getting action with them.

Playing tight is right.Tight and fast is the best way to play. Your style is on the right path. The main time you have to change your play is when play with the same people all the time. You should bet or raise 90% of the time.Calling once in awhile is o.k. But winning players do not call often.
