Russians are like everyone else, some great players and some horrible players and some average players. :)

yes ,but not yes exactly . I just want to add that they seem in my opinion to 1) have the greatest numbers in all tournaments in most of the big well known poker rooms which shows their big interest for the game 2) the weak donkeys tend to be more lose aggressive and the strong players are much more aggressive than the average strong player of other nations . That's my impressions .:)

Very loose and overly aggressive with weak hands. Usually russian means easy money.

Usually when they win it is because of blind luck but it balances out in favour or the tight players like me!!! :)

Basically it adequate people. But the worse qualifications player, the more players are inadequate. After every bad move start a political flood. Of Course it isn't all russian players, but enough .

I think every country has its players, good and bad ... I do not fear neither the Russians nor the devil playing poker.

The Russians seem to be very super aggressive which doesn't necessarily mean they are good, but so are the South Americans. It seems like they've taken aggression to a whole new level lately so it requires some adjustment.

Every day there is a bigger percentage of Russian poker players on my tournament table, altough with all the respect to Russian members here most of them pretty much suck at poker, but the thing that irittates me the most is them speaking russian on the table, I always have to report the chat to stop them from doing that.

The Slavs are not as pragmatic as the Germans or the Americans. We love to bluff. What can you do.

this question is interesting. For poker stars vc find a lot of them. Already lost much to the Russians, however in most they have luck. Sometimes you are with a premium hand and they give all-in with hands meaningless. And still win. I see more Russian players lucky than skillful

In my opinion, Russia has a lot of good poker players such as Ivan Demidov and Mikhail Shalamov. It is interesting to observe them as online poker and live tournament.

share your opinion. Also I think there good players, but in any industry, the best are minorities. If u play tournaments with buy-down, the tendency to find these players is huge.
