I'm on a cash table at the moment and he is raising 30BB brfore the flop and wned he is miles behind he is catching everything he needs.

I have doubled up by waiting on cards a couple of times but he has also busted me so I am currently even, now should I just continue to wait for the cards or is there another way to beat this guy?

depends on the type of table you are playing, if its a full ring of 9 or 10 players then you can afford to be more patient, wait for the big hands then stick it in and hope that it holds up.

If you are playing at a short handed table then you may have to find spots to gamble with him - if he sees you are willing to gamble then it may slow him down a little.

If thats not an option then it may well just be a case of finding another table.

This guy is VALOOOOO.

Stay wait for cards and bust him :) seriously tho a cash game with a guy like this is +EV

That is, as long as he sticks around!!!

What you may find is that you gamble with him say twice, he busts you twice and then leaves!!!

Just find another table ;)

I thought this was gonna be a story involving flushy  :D

would you rather play with a bunch of tightassed nits?

stick around, obviously.

I love maniacs.... but with them you have to be patient and usually you will win. 

never leave

The bugger pissed off after he busted a few people, I was gutted as I just got Kings when he buggered off.

Now this is should be qualified as bad beat ;goodvevil;

50p on its way to the tin then lol

I've cancelled dates to stay in games like that.  :D

yeah but you can always take them for a walk later ;)

Add them to Buddy list and follow them around!

the tribecca name was im_loosing, just so you know to look out for him

No one has pointed out the cons of playing against people like this. For example, your variance has just rocketed off the scale, which might be dangerous if you are playing on a short bankroll. One guy I knew sat at a maniacal £50 PLHE and spun £200 up to £2000. The maniacs looked like they were going to be donating all night, but the guy decided to leave, as now a significant portion of his roll was on the table (and he was covered). The value is irrelevant if you can't take the swings.

Also, beware of running straight into someone else's nuts. For example, maniac open raises to 30BB. You call with TT. Next guy along moves all-in for another 40BB. Look what trouble you have got yourself into.

i play like this maniac
i rathole my winnings
i buy in for the minimum then pupupuspuspushhh
i find it works if u go for short blasts then super passive then leave or pushpushpush again

for starters, show the hand. What did he beat you on. Your raises 30bb ... blah show hand history. Describe the game, the seats. And yeah u probably got outplayed. I know im_losing and hes very good player. DONT FUCK WITH HIM. He's been on my table and usually he runs the table. Go ahead follow him. Track your fish, but soon you will find that your actually chasing a shark. I dare you Follow him. I DARE YOU!

Hey Ch@d, you seem like a nice bloke.

playing someone now who's stats are 95/59/3.26/100. It's scary but fun.

He's playing now.. Go get him.. he's on rainmaker table..


Can't see Ch@d though :D

I go offline for the weekend and we have this on the forum.  lol

Opinions aside mate, I dont rate anyone that moves all in everyhand regardless of the cards, thats not a good player thats a Gambler.

One last word.

MUG!

I come across players like these now and again. The key is to remain composed and not to get frustated if they either suck out on you, pay off someone else, or bugger off in a hit and run.

Also, be very aware of the players behind you when calling big pre-flop bets.
