Nit Fungus

Poker has a curious property where making a less profitable decision reduces the profits of everyone else. For example, a table full of nits that only limp premium hands and fold the rest - how do you make money there? Well, you can’t draw blood from a stone. And the counterstrategy is to raise an even tighter range, thereby becoming a nit yourself. It spreads like a fungus.
Excuse me, dealer: can you wipe the table? There’s some nit fungus growing here.
