oh this is a good one
gotta remember that next time
poker is a little bit about odds so comes in handy

also what i know and learned(even if your a tight player and this is only for tournaments)
at the beginning when the blinds are so low and you got nothing just limp in if you can for 10 or 20 chips thats nothing and later on when you see flop, you can hit a straight or something else big(think of fullhouse, happens alot to me)
and if you got nuthing on flop and someone raises, just fold it only cost you 10 bux
later on when blinds get 100 maybe 200 you can play your usual tight game

PLUS players will prolly think of you as a loose player(and will be more likely to be trapped by you when you play real tight)
