There's no reason to be afraid of anyone

We all love poker and that's why we come here to get a portion of pleasure. However, the game does not always work out as we would like. And all because the opponent has once again outplayed you.
Sure, I get outplayed all the time. And I outplay other players all the time. It's just part of the game. There are times I play extremely tight, somewhat loose, and totally aggressive. It's usually based on the size of my chip stack (often compared to my opponent's stack size), size of the blinds, and the amount of time left in the game.

Hello😉
The worst opponent is "maniacs", they go for everything with any card and sometimes they are lucky 😞
Oh, yes! This season of the Cardschat autumn league, I am very "lucky" to have such opponents. And I can't think of a decent antidote yet. Apparently, something should be changed in the menu for opponents.

I see no reason for this to happen.

Hello, I love playing poker so I'm not afraid of any type of player, on the contrary, the better I like it, the more I like it, since I learn from them and increase my level of play... although playing at cash tables I like crazy people who go anything but $$$$ for me they give me the money

The hardest thing for me is to play with people who enter the hand with any two cards and do not discard any hit on the board.

Wolves are afraid not to go to the forest, there should be no fear, otherwise there is no point in playing, you just have to play at those limits on which you are not afraid to lose and you can go online at any time, let them fear you

I'm afraid of Brazilians because they are Varyats. I'm afraid of the Germans and the British because they are secretive. But most of all I'm afraid of the distribution system in online poker. Because they always hand out cards to rivals. You need an out, even if the reliability of this is 2%

the most dangerous player for me is the one who goes to All-in every turn you can't predict and he can beat you even with garbage in his hand:)

There's a guy called Josh and he always calls me and if he's behind he always hits the card(s) he needs. Makes me afraid!

Sitter limpers are the worst players you can have at your table, they are like an unnecessary tax on all the active players. They hurt everyone's chances at the table, all while wasting everyone's time.

I'm afraid of maniacs early part of a tourney.

The kind that irrespective of you holding AA....they put you all in with their J4 off and hit trips.

I'm not afraid of any opponent, because I have a lot of confidence in my way of playing and yes I respect everyone because nobody is better than anyone else and experience also helps in the game.

I fear the opponents who call everything without fear regardless of the cards they have in hand, they usually hit games like a lottery.

I'm afraid of loose-aggressive players. They are unpredictable...

For me personally, there are no opponents that I am afraid of. There is no point in simply being afraid of something. I try to be patient, disciplined and avoid hasty rash decisions.

I'm afraid of any opponent that sits to the right of the players 'sitting out'.

Yep...just flew out of a tourney like a falcon in a dive.

AA... two shoves before me, the worst I can have it is both having A,? maybe suited.

Nope, first guy was stealing from early position with 7Js (or wanted to go out to the pub)......second guy calling with 56 off (I have no explanation).

Flop came 6, A, 10... phew JACKPOT!

Then 6, 6 came out turn and river.

That isn't variance, and I'm not religious!
