hopefully, you find "headphone guy" sitting next to "pokerstars shirt wearing guy" sitting to the left of "i read hands so good i talk about the hand thats in play" guy.
Wait...those guys play at your casino too? Well no shit.

LOL, those guys are all like the mega-donks you find online. Sadly, they probably squeeze a small profit in these games.
i LOVE these guys. i sat live once earlier this year, and had loads of fun.

i had a LAG three to my left, a regular to his left, a couple donkeys to my right, and headphone buy three to my right. headphone guy was also "i can read your hand out loud guy." i got in one mix-up with him.

i had pkt Q's and opened it up from mp. he called, and so did one of the donkeys to my right. headphone guy had the CO or BTN. flop comes J 8 K, and i led into them. they call. turn pairs the J. i lead again. headphone guy calls. river is a brick. and i get nervous and put in a half pot bet...i thought i was ahead based on how this guy played his other hands. the donkey to my right says, "he's got the boat. look at that size of his bet...he wants a caller." headphone guy says, "i've had him on 2 pair a couple times. but, he IS betting smaller than usual. you may be right."

i was thinking to myself, "WTF is all this hand discussion. dealer? wanna step in here?" but, what could i say? if i bitch, it alters their thinking. so, i just sit tight and hope he calls (because i thought i was ahead).

he drops and shows me the TRIPS! he had AJ, and thought i had KJ. how can you drop that, at these stakes, to a 1/2 pot bet on the river? but, whatever, thank you "i overthink, therefore i am."

but we've all been there before. and these guys are ALL OVER THE PLACE in a live game. spot them and take their money. if he will drop trips, you can sell any scare card to him....use it.
