Default Re: Why do we hate donkeys?

The whole game is about adapting, not playing some set way.

If you're in the pot with a chimp, and you've flopped tpgk, and you know he will call with absolutely anything, and you have no real reason to believe his equity against your tpgk is any greater than, say 30%, why not just overbet, HUGE? EXPLOIT HIM. The animal MUST call, that is his compulsion.

This is not to be critical of you in any way, but I think you would do well to become better acquainted with the mathematics of the game. When you have an edge, any edge, push it. Bad players are bad players because they cannot help but to constantly be in situations where they are at a disadvantage. You, as a good player, will usually have a basic advantage in hand strength/showdown value, and be able to easily see when you don't. The more of the odds you understand, the more edges you will be able to exploit.

lol Play Money on Stars is a GREAT way to learn how to extract the maximum from tards.
