I agree with the general notion of playing tight early, but there is one big downside to this.

Assuming Party, its so much cheaper to play suited connectors or low pairs early...it only costs you 15 in an unraised pot. You know, those hit or miss kind of hands: flop it and win a huge pot, or miss the flop and fold cheaply. You know youre gonna get paid off, so might as well play those hands while theyre cheap.

Thus, my strategy usually is to play tight AFTER the flop, not so much before the flop (still shouldnt call any raises with those hands though).
