Here is how I see it.
When there is a terrible, loose player or two at a table with tigher, medicore to goodish folks, they're getting stacked and leaving broke at least 8 times out of 10. Think of it as a big raffle for their stack. I want to stuff the hopper with as many raffle tickets with my name on them as possible and try to get my opponent's tickets out of the hopper. I do this by picking intelligent spots to gamble with the table action. In addition, the table coaches who don't understand my strategy will read me wrong and make some pretty big mistakes when I play them in pots.
When someone is throwing around lots of money, the correct adjustment isn't to tighten up and wait for a big edge, the correct adjustment is to get in there and gamble!
That's a pillar of my poker game that's worth a thousand hand histories.
