I believe in a lot of that, Rippy, which is why I play 6 max NL tables primarily. Those places are great hunting grounds for predators, and I know I make a lot of my money from buying pots. Hammering away, like Brunson would say. It's not just position - if I see a pair on the board and only 1 or 2 other players in, I'll bet at the pot from any seat and see if it sticks. If I get called or raised I back right off, but overall it makes me more money than it loses. Sometimes I'll bet huge with just outs - middle or lower pair, a draw to something good like a flush or gutshot straight - and make people fold better hands than mine. I do get burned but when I do, I only lose the one bet usually. Two times out of three or better, I take down the pot. And since I like pre-flop raising, it's usually a decent pot.
