Message: [QUOTE="theANMATOR, post: 5293267, member: 377741"] [b]The Poster?[/b] *) The Poster: Could you expand upon this one Dorugremon? I'm not familiar with this? *) The habitual limper: Yes - these guys play like 80% of hands and are usually fit or fold on the flop, OR they are the min-betters on every street. If these guys are in front of my - I just totally ignore their bets, they are meaningless - and you can play straight up ABC poker against them. Pre-flop I will normally 3-4x re-raise their donkey limp and post flop if hitting the board in any way, I will 3-4x re-raise their min-bets. This breaks them of the passive aggressive style quite fast. They either have to commit to the hand or get out. *) Bad bet sizing: Yes this is a very good tell imo. Those that shove preflop light hoping a suited Ace or two suited broadways get through. I can understand if short stacked, but at the micros TOO MANY "lags" shove pre in hopes of sucking out or getting it through. I think half the field is quasi delusional thinking they have the best hand, are surprised when they are called and loose, then complain in chat they were sucked out on - "do the math bro". LOL No need - I called your shove with my A/K - you shoved pocket 3s. The entire table had you beat. Poker is a 5 card game, not a 2 card game. Thanks for the double up! I do however think their is a legitimate discussion about bet sizing and preserving your stack with modest (not min-bet) bets, that exponentially increase on every street. Hitting a set on the flop doesn't automatically mean shove 150bb into the center of the table - maybe 1/3 pot bet, and increase as we evaluate all streets after the flop. Much more equity can be gained from playing a hand out - instead of shoving pre/flop. I love to see players get a walk when they shove pre - and turn over KK/AA. It's quite fun to needle them - "You sure did get a lot of value from that premium hand" lol [/QUOTE]
