When you're speeding Mr. Weak/Tight isn't a problem, you'll give him fits! It's Mr Plays-Every-Other-Hand-and-Calls-with-Ace-Kicker that slows you down.

Ahh, yeah they'll try to zag to your zig. Good players will start with the check-raises, (check-)raise bluffs, loose calls, delayed re-steals, betting out of position into the raiser when the flop is bricks, etc. Now we're playing Poker and not so much of a card catching contest!
