Turn their semi strength into a weakness. If HU check raise often even some check raise bluffs to neutralize their aggression.

I tend to get caught up in aggression, especially if there are players that appear weak like 17 or less Vp. when they start defending and playing back it puts me in my place.

They fly very quickly at the beginning of the tournament, do not rush to play against them ..in bespredelom hold'em against them rarely work even AA ..if you go with them in the flop ,then be ready to put the VA-Bank ,in the end, in the hands of must have a monster or a couple karmanau least 8-8 ,and not a variant of that defeat ,as the aggressive player can drive the map..his job is to steal the blinds.

Being an aggressive player often brings a fairly wide advantage in a closed game

Raise. If you've got the cards, why not? Remember their goal is to control the action so do something so that YOU take control.

If it is only 1 player that is realy agressive he/she will walk in to a setten trap eventualy. If there are more real agressive players, stay patient and let them take out eachother, and the first line i typed is gonna be active again.

Against aggressive players, it is desirable to play in a position and with a narrow range of hands. In general, make bets with strong hands, check - with weak hands and not bluff.

the only way is, first identify them, later, only wait, and wait, if you have a monster hand go for it.

I let them play for a while alone, depending on the size of the bet to my stack. I am talking from a tournament point of view. You are not the only player at the table at some point someone will call or raise with a premium hand and with any luck you will see their cards. No one can have great cards time after time, however, and you don't want to get caught and lose your entire stack. Protecting your blind is often a good place to start your calling or aggressive stance, although they may be out by then.

play as agressive...sometimes

How to play against aggressive players? I don’t know how to play against them. Can someone tell me?

Playing "tight" and not getting suqqed into early all ins when someone is being aggressive is a decent way to get further into tournies. Hard to try and "guess" when to play a hand when someone is playing EVERY hand and pre flop raising, etc. Patience is the key :)

It is always difficult to play, when an aggressive player is sitting behind you, it is difficult to guess how he will play with the next hand, you do not have to go to the bank with a weak hand, you need to wait for a good hand.

I think that playing aggressively is a winning strategy (remember of varience). However, when you’re at a table of equally aggressive players, this can actually be a losing strategy. Identifying the tendency of the table as a whole is crucial when you’re trying to make money.

Take notes on them focus more on their playstyle when do they bluff againts other players? How much does he raise with a bluff or when he really has something? I always take notes on such players makes it easier to catch them in a bluff or weak play.

If a player is aggressive, this does not mean that he always has two aces. I think that at some point his aggression can be used against him !!! you just need to wait for good cards and not be afraid to play aggressively against an aggressive player !!!

Sometimes I realize that I lack a bit of aggression, yes.
If we are not aggressive, the aggressive will become our opponent.
Especially in a HU this gets very explicit.
In a 200-person tournament I got to the final table with a lot of determination and a bit of aggression as well.
When we stayed in HU, I lost that aggression and let my opponent be the aggressor.
The result of this was already written, I finished in 2nd place.
