The reason is: when playing a tight/agressive player you only want to get involved when you have a MADE hand. I emphasize made because youll be in need of a definate hand that is strong enough to win a showdown ( considering the cards on the board ). Pocket pairs are good because against a tight/agressive player if you have, for example, pocket 6's and raise about 3x the blind and he calls from late position and the flop comes A J 6- in which case your set becomes a big favor to a pair of aces ( which all tight/aggressive players love ). Big overs are good cards because tight/aggressive players will play suited connecters and consider open ended straights and flushes great drawing hands. They'll try and limp in cheap with draws like that, and try and see a cheap turn and river to make their 4 card straight or flush become a 5 card straight or flush, which will have strength in a showdown. Therefore, its important on flops with ex KQ, a flop of K of clubs-6 of diamonds-7 of diamonds, to put the pressure on him to fold his drawing hand, or call and never catch his sweet little 1 in 5 shot. While the table is 5-9 handed, only showdown good cards and bust the table up with some solid hands, then when its 4-2 handed, you can switch gears and become more aggressive and grind his ass to the ground with semi-bluffs and hands that wouldnt win a showdown. Because you showed down quality starting hands everytime before ( like the pairs and overs ), he'll assume youre a tight player, and when its shorthanded and the blinds are large, you can steal pots with subordinate hands. When it gets to heads up with this guy - any two cards will do the trick. Poker is a matter of picking your battles.

Rebuttle- Assume you arent catching pairs or overs in your hole hands, and on the rare occasion you do, you hit nothing on the flop? Well, in this situation you'll have to start making plays and if this guys is such great player, do your best to avoid him, and try and steal blinds until your hand comes your way. WHATEVER YOU DO- dont showdown a complete bluff. He'll chew you up like bubblicious even if hes a 6 month amatuer with mediocre potential if you do.
