Heres the thing, passive players can be exploited cheaply with low variance. Exploiting aggressive players is expensive and high variance. Most people wait for the nuts v's the aggressive players but it just takes too long, might not happen, or when you finally hit the nuts they might not pay off. Part of the problem is being prepared to take the risk v's them. I'm not entirely sure thats a bad thing, its not a terrible idea just to avoid them if you're not prepared for it. For instance in last nights tilty session I pulled the trigger twice on a 65/40 with 35% 3-bettor; he had AA and AK both times. Obviously sucks and unlucky, but I had a choice to stay on the table giving position to this guy, or just leave and find easier money.
