I've found that trapping with a big hand and catching the bully usually gets them to tighten up and let you see cards for reasonable prices. You sometimes have to let the bully have some success first and let them get comfy thinking they're rolling over you
I do the same thing on Friday nights when the drunk macho players come out
Catching them with a trape is priceless. Eventually if patient you'll catch them. Check check raise or reraise. Love it.
Agree
As a agressive player I can confirm trapping works
Yeah I love check calling playing soft or trapping. I like them to bet into me or semi bluff
I recently had an aggressive, big stack on my left in a $2/3 NL game. He was making oversized PF raises (~$25), shoving/stealing AIPF, and posted straddles every round and raise anyone who just called. So eventually everyone folded to me in the BB, so I called with AA. The aggressive straddler immediately shoved all in. Good times.
Well played sir🤭
I played an aggressive player that would do 17 dollar pre flop for 50 cent blinds
@@gregadams5642 I love your comment because it reminds me of home games and even some live games. Having "position" (with villain) to the right doesn't quite work when everyone else knows exactly what you're doing. Three-betting a 34xBB opener looks like an isolation play, even to a complete noob who's never considered such things.
What did he have ? … curious 🧐
And?? Can't finish story there he called lost folded or called won?
My strategy is to tighten up my range. In some games I like to play hands like 6/7s or K/rag suited. But when there's an overly aggressive player I tighten up and only play those hands in position if at all. Like you said, you can't beat them at their own game so play a smarter game.
Thanks brother
Horrible idea. I am an aggressive player and when you do what you are saying, I love it. Why? Because I just get to take, take, take from you until you play back, then I fold. You become insanely predictable and you actually increase my profitability while decreasing my risk when you play this way. If you can't learn to 4-bet, you will be exposed by an aggressive player. If you learn to play back, quite simply, I will look for an easier target. FWIW, I have run 9bb/100 for over a decade.
Can I learn from you@@TwoBlueScrews
@@OvechkinRbk9k ha! Sure
@@TwoBlueScrews Do you have a discord or telegram?
A check call is much more intimidating to an aggressive player, especially if you have a tight image. Probably goes check check on turn and you can bluff or check call river.
In my experience, aggressive players like to open every hand with big bets (30-40 big blinds), establishing a psychological advantage by saying "I'm crazy, I don't care about the money". These players are gamblers who really don't care about the money. I often play live cash games with drug dealers who are making 'easy money'. No pot is big enough for them. They'll call any bet up to the river to catch two pairs or trips with their crap hands, and if they're lucky on the night, they'll win tons of money by beating premium hands. The problem with these players is that you never know if they are holding premium or crap hands. This randomness is confusing and you simply can't use any "strategies" to beat them. They will call you with AA and KK and reraise you with 34 off. And if you're unlucky, you'll lose more in one night than you make in a month.
Great comment. People believe they can use strategies but there isn't NONE. 😂😂
All of these poker bodd can get you ready for aggressive player. The only thing I believe you can do is widen your game.
Great video. I have been watching a lot of your videos and they are a great help. Thank you
Glad you like them!
One thing you can do if an aggressive player is on your left is just limp your premium hands, watch them raise it up, they'll usually get a bunch of callers because they're always raising with air... then you just stick in a bunch of chips once action is back on you :)
Fantastic info and very helpful. I am going to be watching every one of your videos. And yes, I subscribed. Trying to tweek my game before the WSOP July events at Ballys. Thank you again, from Panama.
Ken Warren: Winners guide to Texas Hold ‘em. Fantastic book.
I've developed three questions to ask when facing a big raise: (1) what is the nut hand? (2) do I have the nut hand and (3) if not, what has to happen for me to get the nut hand. If the answer to the first two is "no" and to the third is "no idea", then I fold and it is not discouraging to me because I thought it through and came up with the best answer. And I never ask what my opponent had because (a) he might lie, and (b) it's irrelevant because I made the decision possible based on what I knew at the time.
I had an aggressive player on the table today even with premium hands somehow they had better I waited patiently for the right cards but everytime I played them they would beat me on the river. Ended up losing my Buy in and walking away for the day. I guess it's just variance and on a good day the roles would of been reversed. Back on the tables tomorrow for a fresh start.
Aggressive player here, I love how you simplify and categorize “aggressive players”. There is a strategy to the style of play, picking certain players to bluff more(nits), semi-bluff nut or top draws, double gutters, and hands others don’t think you have.
You are more than WELCOME at our home game ☺️... You'll walk away with fun stories, broke, but fun stories nonetheless 😂
@@lazywallstreetnews7234 that’s doubtful over time given I’m cash positive for years, but ok. Times have changed, aggressive players win more. If you watch streams nits don’t win much while aggressive players do.
@@jakeh4273 Who said I was a nit? 🤣 Trust me, you'd end up broke dude, we basically turn aggressors into victims by the end of the night, it's literally too easy. Maybe you win a pot here or there, but you'd have one hell of a time as we took your money, I'll tell you that right now!
@@lazywallstreetnews7234 never underestimate your opponents, love the confidence but you’ve never played with me before…
@@jakeh4273 it probably wouldn't even be me that broke you is the thing. I'd take part of course, but these guys play a lot of PLO and will literally call out your exact cards like 7/10 times. It's insane. Very intimidating for people who aren't pros.
Actually had this happen last night. Aggressive player on my left was three betting every time I opened so left and went to another table. A little while later they guy sits in the spot to my left and was doing the same thing. Tightened up my range, played passively and let him lead and then stacked him two times in three hands. He left the table and didn’t want to reload a second time.
I've found it's best to fight aggression with aggression, but I'm also a fairly aggressive player. Also means I know I don't like it when I'm the one being bet into and check raised. There's also different types of aggressive players, good ones and just plain dumb ones
yeah, I agree you need to be aggressive to level the playing field.
Good - TAG , Bad - LAG
good advice.
You may not want a good aggressive player on your immediate left, but give me a psycho on my left every time. It's like being in position every hand pre-flop. Build the pots when you want to and keep post-flop decisions simple.
Brilliant, I was just making the same point. As I've heard it put, having the maniac on your left "drives the betting back to you".
Some good stuff guy , appreciate .
How do you play vs aggressive players? Also, here is how to beat your friends at poker! czcams.com/video/3nDS5Rgfj9o/video.html
Regarding your last point not having an aggressive player to the rest of you. Isn't there also an argument for this. That being you can see how the rest of the table reacts first. Eg limp in with strong hands, he bets, you see how the rest of the table reacts then decide whether to 3 bet him or not.
Alternatively if you are the right of the aggressive player. Other players have limped in with very strong hands, he 3 bets and you call after widening your range but then could be facing a very large 4 bet from those strong limping hands. Thoughts ?
This is what I do pretty successfully in tournaments…….
I play my cards. That’s it. I don’t bluff unless it’s a small poke at a check down to the river some times. I rarely even open. People love to bet and if you just let them do the work and put the money in….. you won’t be betting into a loss. If I do lead out and bet it’s usually an all in with the nuts.
The best option against an agressive player is play tight and in position, even if you got QQ and flop hits AK9, if he raises get out ...
when you got it, he's going to loose big
Thanks for the video! A very minor correction at around 11:30: When 9 of diamonds is already in the flop, the aggressive player will surely not have 9 and 8 of diamonds on the hand. But 9 and 8 of clubs would do the same trick.
It would be difficult to find a better coach than you. Consistently,excellent!
Thanks Paul, glad my videos are helping you!
If you could clarify, am confused on two of your youtube videos. (5 Poker Hands Never Play)-8-9 suited except in position.....Another video 5 (5 best hands don't fold)-10-9 suited and 7-6 suited has great equity....Love the videos...Thanks
Thanks for watching my poker videos, glad they help!
Given enough time and chips, I slow play them until they commit themselves on a weak hand. If I'm certain they're bluffing I will check call to the river knowing they are trying to buy the hand and once the hook is set I re raise.. use their ego against them.
Check calling A9 through the river may be a bluff catcher or heroic, but for me, that's a sure way to maximize losses..I only play Live..2/5 and 5/10 and this is surely how people go broke...there are better spots for patient players IMO...btw, I'm not knocking the advice, I appreciate it...but doesn't add up for me..thanks for all the videos
Good stuff
Online Poker is so rigged that these useful tips don't really work.
Wow! The 2nd hand happened to me a few hours ago, the exact same hand, the exact same scenario, i had A9 s and had been forced to fold playable hands because he was betting waaay too much, finally i had enough and ended up stacking him, he had Q3 off.
A9 spades.
But the board was different and i turned an Ace.
I really hate aggressive players. I usually play tight / conservative. And I will not play other hands that I might play without aggressive players.
10:11
If the aggressive player shows up with 9d 8d under, then we have much larger problems.
Yeah, there are two nines of diamonds.
Nits and recs love this guy.... don't expect him to have any attention to detail. Lol

I had 469B chips and started free falling. I stopped at $255B in chips and said “what am I doing wrong?” Then I looked up online which poker hands to play. Following your 6 hand 20% and 9 hand 15% in less than 3 days I went from $255B to $904B in chips
Hi I don’t know who you are but you’re videos have great 👍 info, I actually had this situation (1st ex.) happen to m just few days ago and I folded just as you suggested however I was on the button in that hand. Was that a mistake? I play conservative and usually wait for better spots to put my $ in.
No prob, glad my poker videos are helping you!
At sitting go tables you can get up and find a new table.
👍👌Very nice!
Re Pt3: No gd aggressive plays is gonna bet that 7 if they hit with 78! No flopped draw ( Except A4 and 24) without showdown value misses with that 7 on the river. So u have to put the guy on complete air, turned draw that missed or him overplaying specifically k9/j9/t9 to.make that call.
✔-- I will admit that I have a favorite seat at a table. I like seats 1,5, or 9 (9-seat table). I knew about this for years, yet I sit in the wrong seat many times. You can also take advantage of the aggressive player on your left by letting him raise for you. Example: I have a hand that I like to raise pre-flop, if the person on my left likes to raise pre-flop on every hand he is in, I simply check and let him do the pre-flop raise, and then I re-raise. If I decide not to re-raise, the strength of my hand is well hidden. You are 100 % correct about seating arrangement. From now on, I am going to try to get the seat to the right of the most aggressive player at the table.
This is a great video! Keep up the good work!!😃
You want the seat to his left, not right.
@@danielbentley7117 Sometimes you have to take the only seat that is available.
@@bobroth1951 But you said you want to get "the seat to the right of the most aggressive player". That's the exact opposite of what the video was saying. He said sit to his left or find another table if you can't sit to his left.
@@danielbentley7117 Ok, i know and always want the seat to the left of the most aggressive player. You can't always get that seat. I am saying that if you have to play the seat (no other seat available) to the right of the aggressive player you can disguise your hand by letting him do your bidding for you. I have done it many times while waiting for the better seat.
@@danielbentley7117 The more hyper aggressive the player, the more it pays to have them on your left, because they'll bluff when you have a hand, and it drives the betting back to you. Suppose you flop a set or the nuts, you can always C/R the maniac. When you C/R, other players "with position" on the maniac may raise-to-isolate b4 it gets back to you.
I now understand ranges better and accepting bad beats are going to happen.
I have seen world class players get beat when their opponent gets a low set on the flop( like 3s or 4s)
and they have 2 pairs.
When your opponent keeps raising and it doesn’t make sense, it is sometimes best to fold as you
point out, especially with an aggressive player to your left.
So you want good players and aggressive players on your right so you have position right?
I handled a big aggresion factor in nl5. Had to call a overbet allin of 130bb in a 110bb pot with KK on 7822A board he had TJoff
thank you master .....:))
Glad this one helped you Tawee!
It all depends on how you're running.
If you're on a roll, loosen up your range to catch him off guard. If not, just stick to good hands, folds and hits.
That's what I do. No matter the player I fold when I'm cold. But a aggressive player sooner or later he's going to get felted
I learn and earn a lots of chips from your lesson black rain.❤
Depending what kind of aggressive is?
3 bet a lot and then playing careful post flop or just keep c bet F and c bet T... best way fold until you study them and apply specific strategy against them. But offen is best change table or get the position on them and now you abuse them, but smart way.
Position vs. an aggressive player can work counterintuitively. Having a maniac on your left can drive the betting back to you. The perfect example is you have AA in the BB (or straddle), the maniac raises UTG, everyone else calls.
Great job 👏
Push all in, make sure you have 100 bb or more. That is a perfect situation. If maniac makes bad call and gets you, then God bless him. And keep playing with him and you will take everything from him. Maniac playing for fun. They pay as to entertainment them.
but what if you have 5 of these at the table, calling any 10bb or even 20bb pfr? At times even a 60-100bb reshove will be called 4 way if i have qq+
I don't really like the last tip because it doesn't actually talk about real strategy. Also, I don't even think it's necessarily a good tip. We never said that this so-called "aggressive" player is a good one. If I had an aggressive player to the left of me that wasn't a crusher, I would still play and continue to use the "let him hang himself" strategy. If you end up hero-calling this player with middle pair, he will give you more respect from that point on and will think twice about bluffing you as well. Also, sometimes an aggressive bluffer can be a huge donkey at the table. Like we said in this video, the strategy is to use their aggression against them and trap hands. Unfortunately, in most cases, in order to win against aggressive players, you have to pick up real hands with showdown value to let them bluff and you can call. But there is a difference between an aggressive player and a good player who knows how to effectively use aggression.
It feels so good to limp/trap them and make them look like morons. The problem with this online is it'll end up being a suckout bet and they get you on the river. I lost 5 all ins in a row last night that I was ahead on to a freaking straight every time. Dude called me with pocket 7's, draw comes 5,6,8,9. You can't make this shit up.
Play tight play in position hit flop or semi hit flops this will help against all types of players cause many players are gonna be playing wider ranges when they play against you they will get smash by better stronger range of hands in the long run and im talking about long you will be ok
One time I played 5-5-10 at the Garden! I had to fold the winning hand twice to a young , very aggressive Korean player! Later I stacked him with a $4000 pot. Nothing felt better!
@blackrain79poker - How would you handle this during a tournament? I play mostly tournament games and you normally don't get a chance to move tables.
Only call them with the nutts, and fold All the garbage. Let them shoot themself in the foot 😉.
One of the first things i learned..don't call a bluff with a bluff
There is a difference between an aggressive player and a maniac, and there are good and bad aggressive players. A maniac is putting big raises in with little care about his hand, opponents, or the board. A bad aggressive player to a lesser degree will play too many hands, does not care about his opponent(s) or the board much, and barrels too much. A good aggressive player is better at taking into account opponents, the board, and situations. I might stay with a maniac or bad agro on my left, but if there's a good agro, the advice to leave is sound.
How many 9D do you play with?
i am new to poker...i've played live 1/2 about 20 times in my life...can you make a video on "when to change tables"???
It’s something you have to sense. Is the table too tight? Too loose? It’s probably time to change tables
Basically you should'nt play where most other players are better than you are. But of course when you begin that's hard.
Change tables, or just seats, when one or more big stacks are on your left. Try to sit with the money on your right. Another idea is to buy in short, ~40 BB ($80 in $1/2), particularly when you're starting the game in a bad seat. You can always top off your stack when you change seats. When a player leaves the game, the seat you get is likely to be bad, either because someone else already changed to the better seat right b4 you sat down, or because you're in the seat which just lost to whomever's now sitting to your left with a big stack.
@Nikita Orap it CAN be a great thing. It introduces a ton of variance though
I play in an online home game tournament and many of the players are hyper aggressive pre flop, they bluff a lot and I find myself folding with missed flops. Next time I’ll try this method… thanks!
The example he gave had a made flop. If you miss the flop and they bet, you should be folding.
Dumb Aggressive you widen to top pair n hang em n make a squeamish face like you have reservations or are scared
Smart Aggressive you revise a massive outer or 2 pair because they usually don't raise without equity somewhere
The only way to make it in poker over long run is to be super aggressive: do not call always raise, if someone reraise , go all in. Always play the opposite way your instincts tell you to do. If you are not a millionaire or billionaire playing poker by now, it means everything you did was wrong, then the opposite must be the right way.
Are you a millionaire poker player?
lol, yeah, that works until someone has something and then you stepped right into it. Aggression has its place but not ALWAYS, lol. I love playing people like you. A great way to make quick money.
Playing smart is better then aggressive

Enjoying the videos. Suggestion: take it easy on the use of "literally".
Thanks for the tip!
i ain't fallin for no banana in the tail pipe
I mostly beat aggressive players by being passive with good hands and letting them bet and give me a whole bunch of chips, and just fold the bad hands.
And yes, it sucks having an aggressive player right after you. I prefer to have as much of a picture of what the bet is going to be before I have to put my chips in the pot for each round, rather than just thinking about how many players are after me. Problem is, if someone makes some small or medium bet before my turn and there's still an aggressive player right behind me yet to act, then I hate betting anything on so many hands since I'm worried it'll be entirely wasted since they'll likely make some ridiculous bet that my hand isn't nearly in an acceptable range to stay in with most of the time. So yeah, I mostly just have to play a lot tighter and just wait for them to bet big when I have a great hand.
I'd advise becoming the aggressive player because It makes it much harder for players to play correctly against you. A smart aggressive player will notice you are tightening up your range against them to trap and will proceed with caution. I am this aggressive player that the video talks about. At least once a session ill makes a big bluff betting 2-3 streets and most of the time the guy folds... I'll show the bluff to tell the table I'm a maniac and then proceed to tighten my own range looking to trap people willing to call me light. Had a dude ship it in on me with middle pair with K 10 and I snapped with AA and took his whole stack lol. He was the guy I bluffed with 34 suited a few orbits beforehand. set him up to take his stack later.
@@XxxSucks4UxxXif you suddenly tighten up your range the other players will notice it
tapping the tank over here 😅
In your example, you have the 9 of diamonds in the players hand, and on the flop. I call for the floor.
Your personal strategy is a tight and aggressive play style. So you’re basically shaking the counter. Let’s say you’re playing aggressive and encounter a player following the tips in this video. How do you adjust? Just stop being so aggressive and tighten up?
I go all in preflop with them
Then the have it lol
I never raise in mp with this hand, when i know there's any aggression behind me. I don't like kq unless I'm in bb or btn or cut off. Changing up your play doesn't mean you should do so by putting yourself in bad position.
How do you tell who's on a table if you don't know the plsyers?
How does one estimate what hands the opponent have? Do you have a video explaining that
I’d say to sum it up it comes with experience , when you played enough you will notice the things going on at tables as mentioned in so many comments with aggressive players , bluffers , fish and so on , (The gambler) song by Kenny Roggers sais it all , know when to hold ‘em , know when to fold them , know when to walk away , know when to run lol 👍

I overplay my top pair top kicker hands by putting them all in on the flop/turn
I would say trapping aggressive players gives me the most satisfaction playing poker 💯
The following ABSOLUTELY DID HAPPEN.
I was in a tournament in Bally's in Atlantic City. Two seats to my left, was an operator who would limp any two preflop, then get gonzo when the flop came down, whatever fell. I'm in the big blind, I see I have Harry Potter in hearts. It's limped around, I check.
Flop was a Queen of Hearts, a Ten of Hearts, and some rag or other, I forget (you'll see why). I check it to Gonzo, he bets his usual, everyone else ducks out, I call, and it's heads up on the turn.
It missed. Bigly. I check, Gonzo sizes it so that I'll have a tough decision on the river if I miss. Well, I'm not dumping 15 outs, so I make the crying call.
River was the Ace of Hearts. Royal flush.
I trap checked, and Gonzo casually asks, "How much you got?" Music to my ears, because he had me covered, and I was therefore about to double up.
I make a disgusted sigh, wave at my stack, and say, "Count it." I'm rubbing my temples like I've got a blinder of a headache, and hoping Gonzo doesn't see right through my act.
Dealer gives him my chip count, and Gonzo OVERBETS IT. There was thus no way to raise, which I would have been required to do in that situation.
So I immediately said, "Well, I'd like to the Academy. I call, and you lose. Let's see 'em." It was junk. I casually turned over my hole cards, stood up, took a bow, waited for the dealer's okay, and raked in a monster pile of chips.
And then everybody stood up and clapped.
and then you went on to win a wsop

What happens if you do have something and you think your chances of winning is quite good but the aggressive player keeps raising especially on big blinds?
When you playing a tournament
My 1/3 games are full of hyper aggro players. I usually just call then 3 bet big with premiums cuz they usually raising 15-20 everytime I limp
I've noticed that when a player raises and I Call only, he will raise again
But if I re-raise instead of calling then he will check only that's how I can tell how strong he thinks his hand is,
if he raises even more then probably he does have something
But it all depends on what cards are on the table
If you raise he checks? What do u mean? He has to call or fold to u
I read "Be prepared for Variance" as "Be prepares for Violence"
I aint prepared for no fistfights.
Flop check, turn, check, river bet, reraise, and then just call throughout until the river. Had
A 10 and JKQ came up on flop.
Won $500 that pot.
Traps, check raising, and range adjustments help me against aggressive players. I like going against aggressive players.... they lose the most chips - but ya gotta be smart!!!
So you're looking at a table of 5 players with 3 or 4 seats open. 1, 2 or more of these players have stacks. All of them hold more than double your buy-in. How do you pick a seat? I choose to sit opposite the biggest stack. I know I'm the fish. I want to hit the biggest guy first. But... your thoughts?
By opposite do you mean to the left of?
If you know that you ate the fish, I mean the weakest player on the table, then you should just stand up and leave this tavle immediately. A little strategy trick won't allow you to do lon term profit against better opponents. Just find a table you can beat. Table choice is very important if you want to be a winner.

If theyre call boxing every bet make sure to always juice your decent hands. Make weak hands pay over time. Stay cozy missing flops and not blowing up. As long as they keep making terrible calls and youre competent thier money will get put on the table. The bully will blow up. The bully will crack someone whod never give you a big pot. Plenty of manipulations to take advantage of
Is this "aggressive" just TAG? I suspect you mean LAG but how aggressive are they really - if they are just flatting your raise preflop??
Could you make a video teaching how to deal with nits that rarely fold, bet or raise? Yes, the Calling station nit. And even worse is they only play like a nit when they have a made hand of usually two pair or better. That's when they finally decide they can bet, but they'll never raise, lol.
Speaking of aggression, mull this over, ". The KEY to poker is aggression, the SECRET to poker is folding"!

Another time i played the opposite, a tight weak player i had aces opened 3x in utg+2 button made a big reraise to 14bb. I decided to call. Flop QQ7 he not comprehended he rarely can hold a Q, but i often. Checked three times he checked the flop but started half a pot on the turn. When he made 3/4 on the River i went Allin with aces, comprehended his kings and he paid. He went very furious with me just to avoid the thing he played this flop the worst way, checking on the flop but trying to recover value against me.
When facing aggressive players to my left, I just play a lot tighter. Hope to let them hang themselves later. Totally agree with moving though. Lol
Tough for your opponent to have A9 of diamonds when the flop included the 9 of diamonds
my luck is i call that aggressive player when i have AK and an A93 off the flop, and he has pocket 3's. 🙃
Got eliminated with that exact scenario in my last tournament
I remember such an aggressive player, who targeted me personally in an online tournament once busted me, when I went all in pf with A,K and he had 10,3.....
Hi sir...
You've got two 9 of diamonds in that deck.
I would open up the "direct left" seating tip to a few more seats. I want the aggressive player no closer then 4 or 5 seats to my left, if at all possible.
An aggressive player gets a knuckle sandwich, a noogie and a lot of my chips.
BlackRain is awesome, but this one time I believe he has a deck with two 9 of Diamonds
👍💚✌🏼
Position is important because this is how life screws most of us.
