Whats the best way to beat those lucky donks? U know the ones who call raises of 5 and 6 times the BB with a Q3off and miss the flop and then catch runner runner for trips and stuff? Just want to get some other suggesttions.

Tighten up your range and wait for the perfect moment. If you have patience, it will come.

I don't know if i see the subject a different way, but I open a lot lighter and value bet lighter against these types of players. Tbh you only see the suckouts because thats the only time they get to SD with you.. the other 48 times they fold the river and you pick up 2 streets of value. Playing rags like Q3o only results in reverse implied odds (I think I've got the concept right?)

Remember, we like fish.. thats why Englands main dish is fish and chips, we cook and eat them on a daily basis :)

yeah I know, I hate it too. But you gotta take poker with a pinch of salt, if luck wasnt involved and the donks never sucked out, theyd never play, and the pros would just move the money around between themselves. I love it when donks suckout, fish with big stacks are gonna lose eventually when I have the flush and they stack off with middle pair.

Just multitable a lot and the variance will happen less, and in time as you grow up as a player the beats will just get shrugged off. GL

Just multitable a lot and the variance will be compressed into a smaller period and you'll get through it faster, which makes it appear to happen less, and in time as you grow up as a player the beats will just get shrugged off. GL
