Their game is no different from others. There are good players, there are bad ones, just like in any other country.

Russian players play well, even some of them are cool. Belarusian poker players are not far behind!

In terms of number, Russians play more poker than Belarusians, but Belarusians are more skilled than Russians. lol

Hello.
In my opinion, the nationality of the player does not affect his skills, experience, patience or luck. I think that the style of play of any player is primarily formed on the basis of his psychotype, temperament and character.

About half of the players from these countries play really well.

In micro and low stakes games there are a much higher percentage of players from Russia and Belarus, who are regulars and playing for profit compared to higher income countries like UK or canada, where you see far more recreational players. I dont have any particular "feeling" about this, but its how, the online poker universe works ;)

From my experience, I think Russian and Belarusian poker players often play pretty aggressively. But there are also some players who play super crazy, it's hard to play against them.

I myself am from Russia, and I think that nationality does not play any role in poker! In every country there are good and bad players, it depends on the person himself and his experience, nationality has nothing to do with it! If a person trains hard and does it efficiently, then he will achieve good results, and the style of play comes with experience! Good luck to everyone at the tables and big drifts!

there are strong and weak players among all of them, but since there are more Russian players than others, you remember them more often.

I have the belief that the platform is always going to favor them and no one is going to make me change that idea no matter how much they want to explain to me that it is about variance. Too many times I have lost to them including the Ukrainians having much better hands that fall apart when the river comes to favor them in one way or another by winning the hand or having a chop pot :(

Think it doesn't matter if they are russian or from belaruse, that country just players more poker, you have players from each country and super bad players from each country it's because more russians play you see more bad russians than you do good russian players

Greetings. I myself am from Russia, but I think it doesn't matter at all where the player lives. His whole game depends on what is in his head. I mean knowledge, character, habits.

Let's not judge players based on their nationality. Where you are from does not indicate how strong or weak you are as a poker play.

I have had tough and weak players from all countries on my tables over the years. :)

The same question can be asked about Brazilian players as there are also a lot of them on freerolls. It doesn't matter what country you are from. Each player has a different style of play.

I think because in some poker rooms it feels like 50% are from Russia you think all of them can be aggresive. When I play a tournament at pokerstars or 888, I have always 2-3 players from Russia. But some are good, some are bad, you just need to be prepared and learn how they play.

Poker players from Belarus play very well for the most part. I do not know what this is connected with, but there are more good players from Belarus than anywhere else.
They play aggressively, but at the same time they know the measure of aggression and do not overdo it, like Brazilians and Romanians, for example.
And as for the Russian players, there are different types of players. Weak, strong, aggressive, tight.

Russian / Belarussian

To me they play in a different ways most of the times.
When it comes to Belarusian players, they play solid poker and with value hands most of the time.
Russian players are more bluffy, they play 80% bluffs and you can tel when they have value.
