Default Re: How do I overcome the bad and lucky players?

Neither. Just adjust your attitude. If the bad plays never yeilded a win the bad players would stop doing it. Just like keeping folks at the slot-machines, these losing plays need to win to keep them doing it.

Your objective to "never get outdrawn" is rediculous; as is the correlarly "never outdraw the other guy". You ARE going to get outdrawn, even by clearly bad long shot hands; and you are also going to outdraw the opponent even when you wouln't have called had you known what he had.

If its a bad play then its good for you in the long run when he does it. Wait until you go a session betting top pair 10 times and getting 4 callers, and never losing a single one. Cha Ching.
