Dealing with a Bully

How do you depend against a bully? Someone with a 15k chip stack is raising EVERY HAND, stealing the blinds, While im sitting there folding A9, because I dont want to risk my 3k stack with this aggressive physco. What do I do?

ok first of all folding ace 9 probly wasnt a good idea, if u face a bully the best you can do and push allin with any "decent" hand and hope to dominate him.

patience is key. wait for your monster, then pull the trigger.

a little patience,and a little luck,will usually payoff.works for me most of the time.but then what can you do.

You need to be aware of POSITION on a bully and put him all in ahead of his bet on your normal playing hand for that position. Especially if he is one of the blinds. A few times of this and they MAY slow down.

I usually just get my dad to go to the school and beat him up GG NO RE!

Haha jk.... like buster said, it's hard to smash a bully especially if their running hot, simply put you must become the bully, take advantage of position and be aware of his position bets/raises

wait for the best hand less than 3 handed and punish him unmercifully

There are ways of dealing with a bully.1.Wait for the monster hand.2. Start telling him jokes to possibly throw his concentration off.3.sitout and hope you get moved out of his room.4.Get him mad and maybe throw his concentration off.5...turn your computer off..lol....so you do have a few options.If ya dont want to risk an allin,you better have the gift of gab and hope he s willing to chat.

Hey all i don't mind the bully player in fact keeps the boredom out of the game i love to listen to them and it never bothers me i love the fireing back besides there just some idiot who needs his mommie so go ahead bully if you want after all i can always mute your chat if i want to

I agree with what has been said.

To add my bit. Remember, it is not you against the bully, so don`t let it get that way. If u have say A9, he raises and you have not put any chips in the pot, just fold and wait for a better spot.

I could answer better regarding when to fire back if I knew what the blinds are relative to your chip stack, your position in the MTT (If u r near the bubble, etc)

Let me know.

It has been my experience that the bully will play any two cards, going all in, so you just have to wait for a decent starting hand and call. Any of the hands from group one will do.
I also find that as fast as the bully gets his huge stack, that is as fast as they lose it. It seems that once they lose half their stack, the bully needs to get it back and continues to push, then you have the fun of taking him/her out. They do put the whole table into "tight" mode as well, which remains after the bully leaves so you can loosen up and bully the rest of the table for a while.

Patience.....wait till he's in the blinds, you have a playable hand, push all-in pre-flop, and cross your fingers.
