If you can determine who the regulars are, it is totally valuable to exploit their tendencies. I cannot agree more!

If you're playing in a DON game that has 6 players multi-tabling (not that hard to find in the $1-$10 range) 3 fish, and yourself, by the 50-100 blinds you're probably going to be looking at a 7 player (ish) game. MANY times I find myself in this situation and realize (seemingly before anyone else?) that there is a huge opportunity to steal when the game is full of regulars. In fact, I find this situation to be almost as profitable as doubling up early (and far more common as i rarely go in without wired Aces early). Often I manage to take my average stack (1500ish) to 2500 before people begin feeling the crunch. Not only does this strategy allow me to coast to the money very often, it also helps me avoid having to steal as much when the bubbling short stacks are much more likely to call.
