Love the Meek and Weak

Poker players generally conform to certain styles of play. Some are always loose and aggressive as a way to intimidate others. There are players who are continually solid rocks who stick to sound A-B-C online poker, only playing premium hands aggressively. These players tend to be predictable though and most often don’t win big pots because no one will call their bets.

The best player to find at your online poker table is the one who is weak and meek. What that means is these players tend to call a lot rather than initiate bets, and even when they do get a hand, they are unlikely to make any big raises. They are always conservative in their calls and bets.

These are typically newcomers to the game, and you won’t find many of them at any one table. But when you do, these players offer good opportunities for you to build pots through their calling, and when they do you beat you, most likely you have not lost many chips to their low bets.

When you do spot someone who is weak and meek, target that player. Be gracious about winning or losing - complimenting the weak one’s play or crediting your own win to random luck.

When there are other savvy and aggressive players at the table, then you must try to add an element of erratic play to your style to chase the aggressive players so you can isolate the weak and meek player at opportune times.
