Fish are fully annoying when you lose to them, as is often the case.. you have AA on the big blind, UTG fish goes all in, 1 other know fish calls, you obviously call, runout favours one of this fish's weak holdings. Next hand a known fish raises you, you call with good holdings but they actually have the goods this time and you end up losing.

Yeah you see it mainly in free/micro stakes,but what I don't get is people making out they are super smart sharks and these fish are thier food... BS! Most times these fish suck out,worst hands mirically win ... sure a fair amount of the time you win against them, usually heads up when you have the nuts and they bet into you like crazy. But the odds definitely favour one of the fishes, makes the game just as difficult to play as the higher stakes... of course when your on a heater for the day fish really do become food.

And that nonsense that play correctly and over the long term you win is just nothing how it is in the real world, nobody I see ever plays fully correctly, quite the opposite! That's why 85%+ are losing players.

Most of your aspects are absolutely right but i have to say it is always difficult to play against hundreds of players online like in freerolls and micro stakes. There are always 30% or more players who are maniacs, loose calling stations, or villains who just wanna have fun and excitement @table - they dont care if they loose 99% of their poker games :).

There's a little bit of everything, I try to have fun and win everything at the same time, I guess I'm not that taid I think they call him, although I only stop at microlimit tournaments
