Problem is, if the 10% of the time you're not playing solid poker is when you're calling all-ins with no more than TP and pushing all-in with ill-judged out of positoon bluffs, then that's going to eat away the profits you've got from playing well and then some.

You need to master the basics (by which I mean anything from not playing Ax to knowing when to fold an overpair to betting for information to taking advantage of position to giving your opponents bad odds etc. etc) and play with absolute, stone cold discipline.

If you are contemplating a non-tight, non-standard move, you need to know WHY you're making that move before you press the button, and you need to be convinced that it is at least as good a move as a more cautious, standard alternative.
