Summary

Agreeable Players are the most common type of low-limit player.

You call too much and fold too little. You bet and raise too little and you seldom bluff.

You generally do poorly in cash games, but by playing a large group of other Agreeable players you can help each other by making the pot so large that even long-shot draws become profitable.

Good players beat Agreeable you by waiting for good hands and then betting aggressively; you'll call and pay them off.

Ways to Improve

CALL LESS! This is the best way for an Agreeable player to improve.

Selectiveness is a key to poker. From preflop on, you should only be playing hands that have good odds of winning, blindly calling "because you never know" just isn't good poker strategy.

Tilted Donkey has many tutorials teaching players to be selective.

BET and RAISE MORE! That is another way the Agreeable player can improve.

When you call there is only one way you can win--that is by seeing the showdown and having the best hand. When you bet you can win that way, and you can win if everybody folds to you. Aggressive play is critical to success.
