It may be. But it is necessary to play ? The chipleader.

To play against the chipleader you need to have patience. He will not always get good cards.

Simply by becoming the chip leader yourself. The chipleader.

It depends on how many BBs you have, amongst other things.

Poker is far too complex of a game for such a vague question to have an answer.

#11 September 11th, 2018, 11:40 PM

I try to avoid the chip leader. If he doesn't play every hand, you can wait and pick your spots where he is not in the pot. You will also need a good hand to play a pot.

#12 September 11th, 2018, 11:56 PM

Tight a lot, playing for value.

#13 September 12th, 2018, 12:05 AM

I figure the chip leader is most likely playing weaker cards than normal. So, I try to trap him or her when I get a strong hand to hopefully increase my stack. It doesn't always work because sometimes the chip leader does have a stronger hand then I thought.

Cautiously but aggressive if that makes sense.

#15 September 12th, 2018, 12:17 AM

tend to avoid as their usually fish on heaters or got the power of zeus or worse.. both together.. soon their stack will usually crumble and the heater will burn out though but i dont wanna be seeing to many flops against him or her when he s in this mode so better i keep out of his path

#16 September 12th, 2018, 12:27 AM

Patience and caution I have to feel confident that I can go all-in...even when I shouldn't ;>)

#17 September 12th, 2018, 12:53 AM

Many people think that as a chip leader it is better to play with fewer cards. i thought so.
You have to play differently if you have the most chips. in many situations, mathematically it is worth risking, (against small stacks), and pressure on the table.
If we do not do that, we will miss many opportunities.

#18 September 12th, 2018, 1:10 AM

I suggest never going allin against the chip leader online with anything less than the nuts. Online poker always seems to favor the chipleader- I call it rigged but many people don't like that term.

#19 September 12th, 2018, 1:20 AM

Final table, patiently. Mid range of tournament. Try to stay out of scuffles with chip leader unless heavy handed or cheap flop. Don't try to steal hands, just bail because it was cheap. If you do have a lot in pre flop, then you better make that steal bet scary. or your chips will be eaten.

#20 September 12th, 2018, 1:26 AM

Not with run-outs if they have multiples of your stack. The nuts aggressively. I'v seen people lose chip leading stacks 400BB and more in MTTs in 2 or 3 hands.

#21 September 12th, 2018, 4:52 AM

I try to exercise patience and pick my spots. Often the chip leader will get a little too aggressive so I will battle aggressively when I have decent hand. Sometimes you have to put up some fight so the villain knows you won�t just fold your stack away to any raise. Bullies do not want a confrontation. Trap the chip leader if possible. Inevitably they will raise one too many times if they have been stealing many pots. When the time is right, use your good position and hopefully winning cards hold up.

if I have a big stack I will not contact the leader in the fight without having a good strong hand. my task is to put pressure on the medium and small stacks

Can be but as the You play against him ?

#26 September 12th, 2018, 7:57 PM

I'm interested in any opinion . After all, everyone plays their own way . So ?

#27 September 14th, 2018, 4:33 PM

for me it would depend on which part of the tourny you are at early still want the best hand but probably play looser on the bubble with small stack a lot more careful but when it comes right down to it its still how the cards fall sometimes with sometimes not a game of chance

You must be careful against a chip leaders because he call you a wide range against you if you shove on him or bet him or 3bet,what ever he gonna be loose against small stacks....

#29 September 19th, 2018, 8:51 PM

Play tight since you don't have many chances to get basck on your fits (assuming the blinds have gotten quite large comparead to your current stack)

#30 September 20th, 2018, 1:48 PM

As I see many try to play with the chip leader carefully . In principle, I try to play the same way , but quite often I try to beat him . And you know I lose more than I win !

I liked it and I agree with you.

I usually play in position and with a more adjusted range, when I hit value and he is the aggressor, I let him get stuck.

Perfect plan that I agree with. Sooner or later you can trap them and hopefully benefit.

#33 September 20th, 2018, 6:07 PM

pretend not to be a fish, but an excellent player with a small stack

#34 September 20th, 2018, 6:27 PM

The worst combination is when the CL is the best player on the table.Whenever that happens I play super carefully but when a CL is a weak player I try to play exploitable whenever I know I beat him. And yes I believe the universe -not the RNG- favors the CL The chipleader.

Be aware!

Are you saying online poker is rigged and that if I know how, then I can beat the system? This means the deal is not random and if I am the programmer I can really benefit. Or is it an innocent mistake in the programming that just results in this phenomenon. Either way, sounds a bit improbable. If you look long enough it seems you can always find a pattern .. or can you? Maybe we should just agree that "poker games favor the chip leader".

#36 September 20th, 2018, 6:33 PM

You can not answer a question like this without some more details. As always with poker the answer is "it depends". Which stage of the tournament are you in? What is your stack? What are the payouts etc.

#37 September 20th, 2018, 6:48 PM

Online the answer is yes we can agree.

I play carefully against the chip leader, on the map, if it is an MTT tournament and there are still deep enough stacks. If he often steals the blinds, it will be easier to take part of the stack from him, you can spin him thoroughly. I prefer to play against the chip leader when there are few opponents left. The push / fold strategy is well developed.
