Against weaker opponents i play openings that create an imbalance in the position, because stronger players will generally find the correct battle plans to win those type games.

Against stronger players i will play for an ( OPEN)  game making for dynamic play, because ANYBODY can fall prey to a well planned COMBINATION !  Smile

Hmm, this is the biggest mistake you can make.

I've seen ~1100 play like Houdini rated at ~3000.

So, better safe than sorry.
