Many players struggle when they face overly loose, aggressive opponents who are capable of showing up with any hand at any time.
It’s hype! Players actually win by finding a game they can beat, playing it a lotĪnd keeping a proper bankroll. That leads casual players to think that the creative, aggressive plays-or conversely, the gigantic folds-are how players win at poker. Viewers rarely see the routine, mundane hands where someone steals the blinds or when someone raises, continuation bets on the flop and then wins a small pot. Televised poker tournaments show only the most interesting hands in a long final table or cash game session.
