you can't win against them! I suggest just sitting out as soon a donkey sits at your table and wait for shark to get there so you can play some real poker.you're welcome.

DO YOURSELF AND FRIENDS MIND IF WE START USING THE DONKEY PHRASE AS WELL TO DESCRIBE BAD PLAYERS?

heh.********OP,Beating bad players is impossible.They end up winning every time.They end up with all your chips.But they are the bad players.Poker has a strange way of keeping score, apparently

Read up on "small ball" strat. Literally, it's how I've neutralized the donks and placed fear in their hearts....well at least until they leave.

There is only 1 way to play weak players... PUNISH THEM FOR EVERY MISTAKE THEY MAKE. If you don't know how to do this....your one of them!The doors this way

I tend to play more snug against these players and wait for them to make a mistake that will cost them a lot of chips. Straightforward poker is the way to play against weaker players. Forget about making moves on them the only way to beat them is to simply showdown the best hand.

Play ABC Poker against them, get your money in while you have the best of it and you should be fine. These "donkeys", as you and your friends call them (what a witty name, I wonder if it'll catch on...), have provided the base for my bankroll. They should be your bread and butter - they're the fish who expect to lose their money by the end of the night; be pleasant at all times to them and make sure they keep returning to give away more money. DON'T catch feelings if they outdraw you and start to talk shit to them; always remember it's fish who fuel the poker economy!

Dont listen to these guys saying to play ABC. They are trying to confuse you. Against players that call with too much garbage simple bluff with bigger bets and bluff more often and truly put them to the test. And with real hands do alot more checking so that when they suck out on you on the river you wont lose as much. This strategy increases your wins and decreases your loses ultimately increasing your profits. Good luck.BTW is gsambray your sn on most sites?

On any other board, everyone would be assuming this is a highly transparent level.And yet I too am convinced that this guy is for real. :|

I've never had a table of all Donkey's yet. Mostly it's a mix of ABC, Donkey's, and Grinders. When faced with such tables I join the grinder's, until the Donkey's are out, I get a primo hand/flop, or I get sent to another table. Donkey's will all/in and pray flop so much if you grind your bound to catch a few, if you bluff a Donkey you become a Donkey.

You have to play aggressive, but the last thing you want to do is gamble with bad players. It is a recipe for disaster. Never make a play at a bad player, against bad players, patience pays divendends. They will donk off their chips to you. If the pot is a heads up pot, yeah you can take a stab, but if there are 5 to 6 ppl calling a pf raise every time, there is no need to make a bluff at the pot. It is stupid, solid play will get their chips plain and simple, push good hands against them and they will pay you off. Punish them for a mistake and don't bluff them, most of them are calling stations, do not bluff them.

Patience will pay you in mtts in the long run, you have donks that play in 10k buy in events, just as you have them in small mtts. Make sure you are playing solid aggressive, playing position correctly, suckouts will happen, most donks will be superloose, so generally, you want to be solid. Not like a rock that waits for AA and KK, I've tightened up quite a bit and have some much better results. Patience is a boring thing but it pays off in the long run. Impatience has costed me alot of money. Just be patient, they will give you chips and double you up and set you up to win.
