I couldnt agree more, its all about knowing your opponent. If they are gonna call a huge raise and c/f when they miss, by all means raise huge.

People limping doesnt need to become a problem and its really easy to combat. Its great because you can overlimp all your implied odds hands, make a big hand then smash the pot.

When you have a strong hand, simply raise huge, if you find “the family” coming along for the ride you need to either be raising larger, just shoving preflop (yes i said that) or not doing it at all. The worst thing you can do is make a medium size raise and get 5 or 6 callers, then when you goto the flop you will have no idea where your at.

Remember the saying “to get action you have to give action”
Folding all the time and waiting for aces is not a real good strategy in live poker cash games. (However, it is a good early strategy in poker tournaments)

The best defense against a player who never folds is to play “small ball” and let them get there at the minimal loss to your stack. Then if they miss the river when you know they are on a draw, you can pounce them on the river!
Experience in live poker casinos is the best teacher to get a varied education in the game of poker.

Realy helpful post! I tend to tighten up if there is someone who will never fold because i had many bad beats against such guys but i think you are right that this is not a good play. If he plays all his hands bad you should play against him as often as you can… i will try this next time .

One of my weaker sides of play is reacting to the folding players, i then wonder and even consider their reasons. It strains my gut feeling, if someone raises the pot, everybody folds and i know i should get involved as my chances are improved. Yet i suppose i also get scared.

Some good information here
