  • Call or raise with thin value when you're likely ahead
  • Fast play strong hands to maximize value and protect against draws
  • Apply pressure to capped ranges with aggressive 3-betting
  • Study theoretical concepts but adjust exploitatively against weaker players
  • Consider investing in poker training
