Playing against nits

by remoh

Especially on the micro limits, you will not only run into complete
maniacs, but you will also often be confronted with the exact opposite
player type, the so-called nit. Those players distinguish themselves by
the fact that they will usually only put a lot of money at stake if they
are convinced that they're holding the best hand.

playing against these very tight and prudent opponents through the
following eight questions.
