It's important to do everything you can to keep your opponents guessing. If you have been raising a lot – whether because you've had great cards or because you've been stealing – sometimes it's a good idea to change gears. That means to switch up your style and start playing conservatively for a while.
*This is especially effective in no limit hold em, where one missed read by your opponent can cost them a lot of money – and win you that money! Also remember to keep an eye out for an opponent who knows how to shift gears.
