you like to play with kamikaze players, I see in many tournaments people bet everything without having any game, I think this is a mess, because we never know if these players really have a good hand in the game.

Such players are present at the tables and they piss me off. Play with them unpleasant.

My advice, be patient and they will destroy themselves. With these players I always wait until I see the flop before putting in a lot of chips. If I have something good then I play their "all-in game" and hope to get then out of the game.

And yes, even if I have AA or AK-suited I don't play with them. If it is not cheap I throw out great starting hands when 2-3-4 people go all in on the first level. Bad for me? Maybe. But that's what I do.

you have to wait and in your best hand, go all. you can fail once, bu it works most of the time, or wait till someone kick them off.

Hey. It is genious and stupid. If the player is just not balanced, then it needs to be exploited. If in the tournament the player raises from the BTN 4 times in a row, then I'll make a 3-Bet with any cards. If the player betting (cbet) 4 times in a row, then I'll check-raise with any cards. Or check-call with any pair to the river. You must resist them. Otherwise it turns out that these "monkeys" easily overplay you.

Just have a little patience and wait for the best moment to act. Most like to play recreationally. Once in a while, is interesting to make some notes to be able to identify with more clarity these types of players.

Yes some players do it, they play like crazy, without any logic!! I think that when we get a good pair, after the correct actions, we can make them retreat or to collect their chips!

I find that crazy players can win you a lot of chips if you just play tight and let them push the chips to you. I have lost to that type of player but as long as i had the best hand when i called bet or went all in then i made the right move. Play the odds dont beat yourself up if you lose to a worse hand that gets lucky, you made the right move and should win most the time. Just my advise.

You will never ever get away from players such as these (at any level). Play in the fashion that you normally would and weed out these so called players.

If you're talking about freerolls, then I often see that. Especially in tournaments where a lot of people are playing. They just want to get a lot of chips at once or not to waste their time. In ordinary tournaments for money, players do this less often.

I play the best I can, but sometimes I end up making wrong plays, I've already lost to countless hands worse than mine.
Worse is not only to play against bad players, but rather between bad and good, I get lost in the middle, otherwise I getting involved with the wrong players.

Its +ev to lose some pots here and there, when you know you will win the big one!

It may get frustrating losing pots you feel that you are ahead, but sooner or later you will find yourself with the nuts and he will handle you all of his chips.

These players have no patience with poker. They only trust in luck, they do not take the game seriously.
I think they're real hobbyists, play with money, because they can afford it.

Oh, I completely agree. Especially in large GTD rebuy tournaments on-line. Its complete bingo game till the Add-ons kick in....

In all reality though, I've been able to make the money in most of these types of tournaments with only 1 or 2 buys and the add on. Now, its not that easy if your impatient. The sad truth is, you gotta wait for your opportunity with a premium hand and either entice a jam, or jam yourself to get a respectable stack. After that its about not losing it, and focusing on picking off the players that are still willing to play passive during all the chaos....


Like I said, its not easy, and can be very frustrating. But if you have the patients to just sit back and wait. baring a crazy suck out, or an unlucky set up. You will double, or triple up the first hand you decide to play. That normally is enough to ride out the storm.

when I'm in a game with players who choose to bet crazy I just hang on I'm bound to catch a hand that beats them I do not call and hope I wait for a couple of cards then I call. sometimes I still get beat ,but in the long run they always lose.

If your goal is to be successful over time, playing with bad players is to be desired. It is ev+.

just play your value hands and bet bet bet or call call shove with value. sometimes they will win but more times than not they will donate their stack to you.

I think it's wrong to say these types of players ALWAYS lose. Some of the best cash game players are super aggressive. being able to win a pot without a showdown is a good weapon.

Saying that I play like what you guys are describing, quite like to shove. don't like folding K8.

Don't try to bluff these guys and you will be okay.

I do not like playing with such kamikaze players, there are a lot of kamikaze players in tournaments, especially in freerolls that play all-in on all the cards in succession and do not watch the flop, and do not allow many players to collect normal -combinations-, but in such cases I have to wait for only a good card and play with such players!
