Yea, you’ve seen it before. You have seen the players who buy in to a ring game with the minimum buying, fold most of their hands, and then when they do get a hand, they push it all in preflop.

 

 

This may be a lucrative strategy for some, but is it ruining the game for the other players at the table?
While it can get annoying having these players dictating the game, because you never know when they are going to shove it all in, you shouldn’t let it ruin your experience playing Texas holdem poker online at rooms like Pacific Poker.
Undoubtedly, these players think they are smart but what they are really showing the other players is that they are too weak to play online poker after the flop. They are basically saying “I only read the first two chapters of Sklansky and Malmuths book on playing poker and now think I am the next Phil Hellmuth” Instead of being proud, they should be embarrassed of their deficiencies against all the other players at the table.
The only thing you can do to get rid of these people is leave the table or wait until they bust. Usually, they don’t stay for long, so maybe when one shows up it is time to sit out a few hands and take a short break. Although these players will never leave poker, they should not negatively affect your poker playing experience. They won’t be around for long. I can guarantee that!
