It really depends what kind of game we would play. Personally I wouldn't even want to go against them with my money, it's always better to play against worse players from financial perspective... but if I had to play against them I'd most likely play tight-ish and get destroyed by them. :D

When I play against poker professionals, I try to analyze their style of play and adapt to it. It is important to be flexible and make decisions based on observations.

You should play the same way against pros and amateurs
in my opinion, bluffing is not a good thing against professionals

Slightly tighter than normal (pre) as the marginally profitable hands will become losing if you are at a skill disadvantage.

It will always depend on the situation, however, it is more profitable to bluff against them, because they will know how to fold, but it always has to make sense, because if it is a bluff without any sense, they will usually call you

It all depends on the player. For me there is no difference who is playing against me: a fish or a PRO. My main target is to win every tournament I take part in. If a professional player gets on my way to the final table, it's even better. And if I get knocked out by a PRO, it's an experience. You have to look for the pluses everywhere. Even in defeats. :cool::unsure:

My game depends only on the cards on my hands and on the table.

Playing against the professionals in tournaments is what it’s all about! It’s the reason I go to Vegas and play poker, to match wits with the best players. You better have a good A game, if not you will be the target. I keep my mouth shut and my ears open and just make the best decisions throughout the hand. Good luck!

A perfect balance between TAG and LAG.
