do you feel like the big stack gets the run of the table and nobody seems to play at them?

Yeah no he didn't say this. But that is what he is trying to get at. Because every table does this.

I didn't even reply to any of your comment. Stay in your lane buddy, and stop highjacking our conversation .

Are you the same guy that had a turd for a pfp. If it is you then I already know what kind of a person you're. I can't remember which threads they were but I specifically remember you having stupid arguments with other people on here. I think you were involved. Anyway I'm not gonna waste my time with you.

The op asked why people aren't going at big stacks. And do you go for them.

Some people have commented about it and I replied to those comments. That's exactly what they're doing. Literally they will not attack the big stack even if they're in position. Till I bet and all of the sudden they would rather call op and inflate the pot. It happens all the time. So I don't know why you say"he didn't say that" yeah he didn't say that but that's literally tendencies of the kind of player he is referencing.

Again stay in your lane and don't hijack our conversation. Stick to beefing with other people on here and keep us out of it. We don't want to associate with you.
How are you making this converstaion about you? Are you OK?

You did reply to my comment
I will not stay in my lane, I will use any lane I see fit.

YOU highjacked my potential converstaion with the OP, who incidentally hasn't replied to any comments, so you are not having a converstaion with him at all!! Maybe you have somewhere else, but I can quite clearly only go on what I see in this particular thread, which seems to be mosty turning into a thread about a bee and a bonnet.

In fact you are hi jacked my potential converstaion with the OP as I commented 2nd in the thread!!!!!!

So, I'll try and make sure I only agree with everyone in the future, would that suit you buddy??

For someone who doesn't want to assoiciate you seem to be doing your best to do the opposite....have a lovely day

Alright my bad my bad. You did indeed. The op literally asked if people went up against big stack. Then I explained to you how people don't do it enough. (Insert your original comment here) When I would raise to attack the big stack/the blinds. All of the sudden they call op. So they're willing to play out of position. Which in your mind is bad strategy to go against the big stack... I am only stating the fact that people aren't willing to go up against the big stack. But are willing to give the big stack pot odds to call.

Your argument was that it wasn't worth the risk to go up against the big stack. Then why would they call op? When you or I would raise. You're just giving the big stack pot odds to call.
That is my counter argument with you.

This always happens in freerolls, and I think you should re-raise them much more aggressively, since with so many blinds they’ll often call anyway. At the same time, you should play tighter than usual so you can have an edge when you do get involved against them.

Well, sometimes yes and sometimes no. We know that in this game, it only takes one hand to lose a large part of the stack or even all of it. I think it's a condition that changes position from one player to another.

Not sure who you're commenting too about the re raising part. But for the tighter part. This is the only way to play these kinds of table.

I usually run bad when I take on a big stack who plays almost every hand and aggressively pressures the table. I try to fight back, but most of the time the luck is on their side, even when they have a weaker hand or an unmade draw. Still, I keep trying to stand up to them.
 
It depends on the situation. Big stacks can put a lot of pressure on the table, so I try not to play weak hands against them. But if I have a strong hand or think they are playing too aggressive, I don’t mind challenging them🫡
 
The best and easiest way to make money in poker is by targeting the weakest players at the table. So personally(in cash games) I don't care too much about what villains stack size is. If he's a weak player I'm targeting him........I hope he has a big stack for me take. In MTT's you gotta a bit more careful about villains stack size but in the end if stacked villain is the weakest player at the table one would be foolish not to target him every chance they got.

Cheers!!!

Is this thread your own private conversation? I thought we have a messaging feature for this? I'm pretty sure anyone is allowed to respond in a thread. wtf
 
As a rule, this player will win against you if you play a combination of two aces and he plays 27 of a different suit, but fortunately, there are exceptions.

Appreciate the back track.

I can't really comment on other peoples play though, escecially when it seems pretty illogical, my opinion remains the same, that its not good to overly risk your stack against the big stack at the table....you need a very good reason.....escpecially around the bubble of other high ICM spots.

If other players seem for some reason more willing to do this after a call AND OOP, well good luck to them. Unluckily for you they seem to be doing it at your tables.
 
In multi-table tournaments, players with a large stack often do have a position of strength. Their advantage is not only in the number of chips, but also in their ability to apply pressure on opponents, especially those with medium and short stacks.
However, this does not mean they dominate completely without resistance. On the contrary, their aggression usually leads to adjustments from other players. More experienced opponents start widening their defending ranges, looking for re-steal opportunities, and using ICM considerations against overly aggressive chip leaders.
Thus, a big stack provides an advantage, but it does not guarantee uncontested dominance. Success against it depends on discipline, understanding table dynamics, and choosing the right moments to push back.

You have a massive trust in people to adjust. How naive of you 🥰😂
 
yes, it happens because players become more cautious around the big stack, short and medium stacks avoid risky spots since they don"t want to bust, so the big stack often gets more freedom to steal blinds and apply pressure, it"s a mix of strategy and psychology, but the advantage only really matters if the big stack uses it well.
