Playing against loose-aggressive players may be tough, they often either accumulate massive amounts of chips (or cash in ring games) or go bust quickly. It means that if you're playing online gambling agent (click through the following document) against one, he's probably got enough chips to start bullying you. You will find certain changes you can make in your play-style to make this sort of opponent a source of profit, as opposed to a source of broken keyboards and laptops (yes, it really may be that frustrating sometimes). Here are 5 tips for playing online poker against loose-aggressive players.

Call for information. If you have been betting for a drawing hand (like a flush) but did not hit anything on the river, it is often beneficial to call the loose-aggressive player's bet - just to gain information about what hands he is playing. This really is only viable if you are on the exact same table as him for a reasonable time frame - so if it's at the beginning of a Multi Table Tournament and players will be going to be re-seated at different tables soon it's probably not worthwhile.

Play lower value hands. I would normally advise that you fold hands like Ace Ten, King Queen and pocket 8s if a person makes a reasonable raise pre-flop, but if it is a loose-aggressive player you are playing against these hands are probably better than his. Should you have a good table image you may re-raise him and he will fold - if he re-raises you, you may need to assess just how loose and aggressive he is. There are a variety of chips to be made from standing up to loose-aggressive players.

Check-raising. Loose-aggressive players will often bet if the action comes to them, whether they have hit or not. Should you have hit a monster hand, just check it and let the loose player get the chips in the pot. Other players within the hand may call him because they think he's bluffing, and when it's your turn to act you may make a big re-raise - getting the most chips you can out of the hand.

Play in early position. If you can seat yourself so you act before the loose player (you may only do this in cash games) you could possibly get one benefit at the table. Normally 'in position' is to act last, so you may see what everyone else has done before you act. If you position yourself in front of the loose-aggressive player you may check your premium hands, allow him to make the bet - and re-raise once it's your turn to act again.

Towards the end of a poker tournament, when you are near to the final table or paid positions, let other players challenge the big stack loose player. Even when he is playing less than average hands, with his increased chip stack he will eventually knock some of these players out, allowing you to climb up the prize ladder.
