The key is making it tough for your opponents to put you on a hand and anything less than 30% is a recipe for being labelled a camper and you wont see as much action when you do catch a 'real hand'...its all about position babyyyyy :P
You are gonna have a hard time beating a true TAG if you are simply "not giving them action"
The essense of proper no limit play is to know not only what real hands to play, but what to do without a hand.
So when you pick me out as a 20% camper, I am going to take a lot of pots from you. Don't think I am weak because I know when to fold preflop.

*I actually play between 15 and 30% of hands, depending on table texture.
If you go back through my sessions, the ones I won the most, I was playing more than 25% of my hands. This is not because this is a more profitable strategy, but because these were more profitable tables that allowed me to play more hands, or I was getting a good rush of cards.
