Hi, I'm going to be playing at an underground game in nyc today.

This place is full of donks who will call any amount preflop and chase literally anything, with anything. The thing is that there will be 5 callers no matter how much you raise preflop, and one of them is bound to catch.

How do you take people's money in a game like this?

I wish I could play in those games since it will be easy to get money.
To take their money you need to have enough money, so maybe wait until you can pay the biggest calls.
other than that just play tight aggressive, they might get lucky and you will be writing stories about bad beats. :)

If theyre inelastic to bet sizes preflop, don't bloat the pot and wait till you hit big post. Don't bet massive pre, just wait till you hit a set or flush. Possibly even TPTK depending how many are in the pot. Don't bluff.

Be careful. You don't want to come across as a jerk or a "pro." If they don't like you or get some bad vibes, that could ruin your experience real fast, not to mention what you're doing is illegal.

Best of luck to you!

Last summer i was in OC and had the same game with a lot of donks who calls every hand so my advice to you is wait for your good hand double up and start to destroy them one by one and sometimes lose a little amount you don't want to lose your fishy players :)
btw : sorry for bad ignlish :D

The advice to have enough money to play is solid, with that kinda play i feel like you might lose hands to a lot of weird hands. Also just keep it small until you have it and then punish them

Underground game? What if they beat you up and take your money if you win? Well, I'm interested in the results if you can report back.

Could be like in Rounders tell them all what they have and how they missed and they all fold.

Yeah if everyone is really loose maybe you should try to play tight and make big raises when you have good hands and see if you can smash some big pots.
But be careful if its an underground game that you don't piss off anyone and get jumped in the parking lot lol. ;)
