With the holiday season coming up, the action online in particular always starts to heat up. The weather keeps people indoors more often and they tend to have more time off work and more disposable income. As a result, this can be a great time to take advantage of some games that have more recreational players in them.
Even so, many people fail to react profitably to bad players. I even have people tell me sometimes that they prefer to play against better, “more predictable” opponents. This, of course, is crazy on so many levels, even if such an viewpoint can be understood.
