If you're predictable and not adapting to your opponents you're easy to beat. This is why top players at very competitive tables change gears often. | |

Well, by definition you cant "beat good players" ...otherwise they wouldnt be good. However, solid players with a tight aggressive style can be beaten if you can get a fix on them, learn how they bet , when the bluff, what tells they have. Sometimes if they play too tight you can bluff them out of pots if the board pairs or a flush card hits on the turn, also if they are too aggressive wait till you get a strong hand and let them bet it for you then stick'em with a check raise if you know they will bet on the river. Often taking a guys stack of chips can throw off their game making them play according to how many chips they have and not according to what the cards are..... |

the best way to 'beat' good players is to simply go all in preflop. That way it comes down to more or less a gamble (assuming you choose your hands you go all in with) and they don't get a chance to outplay you with a flop. |

I don't know if I'm qualified to answer on this thread but I think that one or two good players on a table of 10 is not gonna be a big problem if the rest of the table is fish. The problem is to play good players shorthanded, but then again, playing short handed is a problem for many players (regardless of the resistance) and I'm one of them. |
