The "all aggression, all day" comment was after i gained the big chip lead. I decided to just go with the momentum and chip stacks; image didnt matter at that point.
This passive image seems to work best once it's down to 2-3 players, because they already want to be aggressive and I just give them permission. Typically, players will try to develop the loose/aggressive image, in order to get action when they bet with good hands. I played my strategy in two SnGs last night, when we got short handed. I got more action from 3 different players with crappy hands, than I have ever gotten with my previous monsters. Such as:
*********** # 123 **************
Seat 2: RDU $teve (5150 in chips)
Seat 6: Conejo13 (8350 in chips)
RDU $teve: posts the ante 25
Conejo13: posts the ante 25
RDU $teve: posts small blind 200
Conejo13: posts big blind 400
*** HOLE CARDS ***

RDU $teve: calls 1525 and is all-in
*** TURN *** [Qd 6h Th] [Tc]
*** RIVER *** [Qd 6h Th Tc] [Kd]
*** SHOW DOWN ***
Conejo13: shows [5c 5s] (two pair, Tens and Fives)
RDU $teve: shows [As Qs] (two pair, Queens and Tens)
RDU $teve collected 10300 from pot
Again, no normal player would play a pocket pair, with two overs on the board, this way unless he thought I was afraid of him. They lose the game to me, and go away thinking "wow that tight dumbass just got really lucky and hit some major hands against me" So much fun
