At an aggressive table what's the best way to play?

[lalinha]

I got into a table where most players just raise high and always go all-in on most plays and the vast majority are bluffs. How to play in this case? Expect premium cards and go all-in preflop? What would you do?

My strategy is to ply opposite of the table. You have it figured out, I do what you suggested, I wait for good hands and then play aggressive. If I pick up a high pair in early position I will limp, let the rest of the table go wild and then shove when it gets back to me.

Hi
The most important thing is that you do not rush or get upset, and also do not care about the winning hands that you will have to fold, try to convince them that you not bluffing them, then you will see respect on their part, use the skill of the submarine with strong hands only.

If it is a cash game, it's almost like playing shortstacked at a different stake level. If you're not comfortable with it, choose another table.

play very tight at such tables !!! and when you hit something good dont be scared to bet aggressively !!!

also position is VERY important . you want to have position on an aggressive player / players as much as possible . therefore be even tighter in the early and even mid positions .

Wait for strong hands. Then play them hard.

This will usually happen in freeroll tournaments, especially at the beginning of the tournament, in the first few hands.
If you fall on an aggressive table, it's no use wanting to invent, the villains will pay with everything, the thing is to have patience and wait for a strong hand and try to win as many chips as possible and hope not to take any bed beat.
Trying to double your chips is your goal in a situation like this, so play it cool, be patient and don't try to confront these villains, or bluff, usually at tables like this it's hard to pass.
Good luck to you at the tables.

It's best to play with a good hand if something goes okay if they can't decide which cards you have in your hand. Moving all in with a low card is a mediocre idea, but when the players are hitting high there is always the possibility that you will make a hand that is stronger. It is then more of a lottery game and the players always beating this way, sooner or later they lose.

I'm limping the monsters

In this case, I am waiting for a good hand to enter the game and punish the aggressive players. With a good hand in early position, you can make a small raise and wait for a reraise from the aggressors.

 

[wavetune]

you just need to get into the flop to begin with and if the table is aggressive, you will snatch a good jackpot, I never feel discomfort at such tables, there are high stakes here and you need to accept the rules of the table and not play passively, you will not be lucky, so be it, playing passively we have also never been insured that we will not lose

 

[darkvick]

in that case you must to look the SPR.

If it's low then play more hands and bet more on posflop

What I do is wait for good hands and then place my bet or raise yours.

Hi.
I'm just patiently waiting for a good situation, for strong cards. I don't play with junk, and I only take risks when there are appropriate reasons for it.

 

[whitetailbuck10]

As most people have mentioned be patient, have position and play your cards. I love it when I am in this situation and can just wait it out. Occasionally I may need to limp in on a few hands just to show that I am playing then fold when they go over the top...... just setting it up for when I do get a playable hand....... Then I will let THEM do the raising/all in move and they will think I am just going to fold anyway like the previous few times I limped in.... But of course this can and will lead to some bad beats, but that's the game.

 

[RustyRed83]

Trap them, use their weakness against them. Aggressive players just cannot help themselves. Check/Call, let them bluff their chips away.
Tighten up especially with aggressive players on your left.
Play them at their own game, bluff- re-raise them. Don't let them push you around, playing this way does take a lot of courage and experience.

in these situations, wait for premium hands and high pairs, If you pick up a high pair in early position you limp, let the rest of the table go wild and then shove when it gets back to you.

 

[Recreationalplayer]

Trap more with strong hands on boards that favour your oppenents range.

Let them bluff and pay you off.

 

[demibar]

Hmmm i have been there i played the strong hands but to aggressive table you have play in the late position to gain some chips

Play for value.

 

[Igor Popadyk]

a tight-aggressive style is fine for this table, but be ready for anything preflop with a premium hand

 

[ga25x]

mostly TAG, but in poker very often you have to play by your gut.

 

[juan1579]

Play with a rank and of course when you have very good hands play aggressively
