Default Re: beating the beginners

I'm not sure how you could tell who the beginners are. Just observe the players and if someone is raising a lot more than normal, attack them. If someone bluffs a lot, call them down lighter.

A lot of beginners start out weak-tight, just playing their cards, and complaining when they don't get any cards and end up losing a coinflip. Only later do they start stealing and making resteals and bluffs, knowing that this is the way to survive droughts in cards. I know this was my progression. You can take advantage of these guys too, by pounding on their blinds.
