Hey everybody,I really how a problem being agressive. I dont when to be agressive and when to quit etc. You guys got anything? How many hands should I be agressive with? When should I start being agressive? Against who? In what possition? Calling raises with junk or just raising with junk?- All that is some of my problems. My tight/solid play works fine, but right now I'm playing some small stakes SnG's, just to test my aggresive game, but it doesnt work for me yet.Thank you very much. (Sorry about my bad english, but I'm from Denmark :D)

way to o vague. Go read Harrington on Holdem volumes I & II and Sklansky' Small Stakes Hold'em, and then come back with case-specific (or at least a little less general) questions.

SSHE for tournament strategy?Selective Aggression in tournaments is all about position, stacks, position, card reading (especially flop texture), position, knowledge of your opponents and position. It's almost like astrology...all the stars have to be aligned, and its more feel than book learning. You can't be multi-tabling SnGs and expect to be successful with adding aggression to your game. Continue to test it out at low stakes, and be very observant of how each opponent reacts to various size raises in various positions.

It may cure the flu, but its useless for tournaments at any stakes.

I get aggressive in spurts, like changing gears.
