the signs a player notices that indicate a weak opponent
At 1-2, its pretty easy to pick out the clueless. Playing K3o, any two cards pretty much. Last to act and checking when they have the nuts. Some would say "Anyone playing 1-2 is inherently clueless."
3-6, its the guy calling A-10o to two raises cold or 89s UTG at an aggro 2 or 3 to the flop table. But at the higher limits (80-160+), while I'd guess there is the occasional donk who wanders in, I'd assume the signs that a player is vulnerable for exploitation are a little more subtle. For the higher limit players, what are some of the subtler plays that an opponent may make (or may not make) that cause to you think "I'm going to be picking off this guy's chips eventually"? Does it just come down to cataloging a player missing bets and the chance to save bets and realizing he's going broke eventually? |

Sounds like you're not the greatest player either. |

It's a reasonable call in late if first in or just a small field with no tight players in, and a call in SB to similar field. It's a raise if you're SB and first in. But that's about it, IMHO. |

I agree with this. Most preflop errors are open limping when they should be raising and cold calls when the should be raising or folding.

In party 5/10 the easies way to spot a moron is if they ever open-limp or cold-call preflop.

Re: the signs a player notices that indicate a weak opponent
This topic really interests me.
Uh, no, it's not the part about that [censored] 'I coldcall with ATo'. Everyone can be smart about ATo, it's not THAT tough. -pix |
