Aggression in your betting is an important component of any winning poker strategy. Being the aggressor means you have two ways of winning the pot - either showing down the best hand or having your opponent fold. The real key to developing a winning cash game poker strategy is the use of selective aggression. Knowing when an opponent is weak will help you to get this right. This article looks at both obvious and disguised weakness from opponents.

Also lower stakes players tend to limp the button open up for 4BB maybe 5BB half pot on the flop then full pot on the turn works like a treat ... in pos to a river check always worth a bluff at low limits ?

Yeah, but that is a problem...cause if you're tight in cash games and agressive in freerolls, it's because your're affraid of loosing money...So you become a easy target for those who plays a lot of cash games! You can't play with fear! really!
I'll use a recent quote from Mike Caro about hyper aggressive table bullies.
"Poker bullies rely on the likelihood that their weakness will go unexploited. What's their weakness? To be a poker bully, you must bet and raise too often". "The solution is so elementary that if you follow it for the rest of your poker playing career, you will never be taken advantage of by a poker bully. In fact..your profit expectation will often increase,not decrease. Check more often into him, call more often when he bets.....Because the bully bets too often when checked into, check/calling often lets him hang himself."
The moral of this story is that aggression is a critical part of poker, but when you become too aggressive, a solid player will easily take your money away.

correct. Hanging in for the bubble to burst won't very often see you to the final table. And if you want to be a winning MTT player you need to be hitting some final tables and getting some decent cashes. Reaching the bubble is often not even double your buyin. And since you can't even consistently do this, it's not a good strategy for making $

This very good strategy, but it is necessary to do it skillfully. It is possible to scythe a lot for example opposite an aggressive player, we grant his increases only if we play with our winning sheets very passively, and his end we raise. If our adversary is never aggressive with weaker sheets, this can be used, if we become an aggressive player at this time.
The shortie-gamethe big part of his profit comes from those parties where two people are three people it is granted the shortie the increase of pf, then the flopon the betre (even value bet, even cbet) for a drum. So (preflop cool, later weak-tight one) playerek nowadays already in NL50 neither there are too many people. moreover pl. Ipokeren NL100-on within 4-6 shortie are sitting, and the full stackek burns nitek (typical pf. stat from 8/3 until 12/8). Fact, that the shortie game (particularly the ipokeren) is training the soul.
