Steal blinds from the guy on your left. Problem solved.So the guy to the right of me has over 60% blind steal and I have a pretty big sampling of his hands. How do you deal with this? I'm waiting for even a somewhat decent hand to re-raise, problem is, if he calls he'll still have position over me. Any thoughts?
Steal blinds from the guy on your left. Problem solved.
I run into annoying people like that. Then I learned to shove, problem solved.
Then he started limping in. So I shoved. I did that until he learned to fold.
It's a great feeling when you give somone enough of a beat down that he is now YOUR b*tch !!!!!
At tournaments there's another story when blinds are high.
You cannot fight back without a hand when a bigger stack steals from you.
That`s not necessarily true. You can if your stack is large enough to do some damage to the stealer and if you have a reasonably tight image.
Avoid re-stealing with a weak Ax, use small pairs and suited connectors.Shove it all-in, when you have fold equity, around 18-35 blinds.
As long as the guy is not a maniac, he will back off stealing in future, because your raise will be uncallable to a wide range.
