Recognizing that u are actually among those donkeys u are talking about goes a long way. Because someone who is winning longterm in Poker has figured out already how to deal with those issues.

Ok so mostly mild sarcasm so far. I'll try and give you some real advice.

1) Learn to love them. These people are your bread and butter. You should be happy to see them.

2) Never bluff them

3) Don't try to isolate calling stations with marginal hands

4) When you do hit a monster, raise very large, go for full value, but don't tilt when they fold.....they didn't connect and were folding anyway.

5) You can viably limp behind with playable hands in position, but don't get embroiled in a silly pot afterwards.

6) Read lots of help on Tilt, If other players making mistakes Tilt you, you have a lot f work to do on this!!

I don't understand the concern with limpers. Pretty much everybody does it. Not every hand for sure, but it happens a LOT. I consider myself a relatively aggressive player but I limp a fair bit too. And why not? If I have a mid-range drawing hand in mid position, I have to hit the flop to go much further, which is unlikely. But I don't like sitting out till I catch a monster either. So, I can either throw in an opening bet followed by a c-bet or two (likely bluffs) followed by a likely loss on the bigger side, or limp for cheap, or muck pre-flop. I usually choose to limp in those circumstances unless I 'know' I'm going to be raised and re-raised. Every hand and every table is different.

Take it easy, play the A game and let them fall by themselves.

If you react to the game of your opponents and lose control of your emotions, the problem is not with your opponents, but with you. If you can't control your emotions yourself, you shouldn't gamble.

They tilt you? They fill me with elation and excitement. I will make a butt ton of assumptions and then say My only suggestion would be to hang in there and tighten your range. Don't be a limping donkey to fit in haha. Enjoy winning massive piles of cash!

For limpers punish them with a good raise 3x to 10x and donkeys You should intelligently ignore them I guess.

Apparently I'm just at the stage of recognizing them, I still don't know how to deal with them.

It's normal to limp sometimes, depending on the position and stack, but I was referring to the root Limper, which gave rise to the name, he only knows how to play like this.

This happens a lot, I end up getting into their game, and that's why I love the game of poker, because there's not just the luck factor, there's the fundamental part which is the mind (controlling emotions, thinking and deciding clearly)...glgl

Yes it’s normal to limp sometimes - in playmoney games. In real poker limpers are losers. But off course there can be situations where limping is a sound decision

I have already taken a screenshot of your response and will reread it often, I really appreciate it...glgl

Well, it's probably the number of people. They also have hands that they don't limp sometimes, so aim for those times.

Do the same when your turn comes later . Limp and make some donkey moves against them . One of these hands will be your lucky hand and you will take their chips , I am sure they will attack you in the poker lobby chat or at a forum , complain about you , that you are a donkey )))
