help with aggressive players, hundley728, 8. Dec 2003 18:04 | ||

| I play a small NL cash game with friends weekly. One player is overly agressive and plays practicly every hand so it is almost impossible to get a read on him. Some of us who play are easily bluffed including myself. This one idividual bluffs almost everytime and steals practically every pot. and if one of us do call him after the flop he will continue re-raising with absolutely nothing and try to bluff you out. There is sometimes when people call him down when he does have a hand but will call with ace high due to his style of play. How do i play a player like this? thanks in advance for your help. | ||

| Tighten up big time, and try to get heads up. Hammer him when you do. Either that or just don't play with him. | ||

| Make sure you are seated to his left. Play only the best starting hands. Check raise and hammer hell out of him when you flop a good one. | ||

| Great question! One a book can be written on. Go to WWW.CardPlayer.com and read the article by me (Roy Cooke) on Playing the Maniac. I hope this helps! Life is Good :-) Roy Cooke on 8.

| ooooooh the power of the checkraise. Sit back, watch, enjoy the scenery, get something to drink and WAIT till you got the right hand, then check to him and let him go nuts and BAM! right over the top, man i love the checkraise. Just let him walk into your trap and bust that sucka out. | ||
