Guy on betfair now, after 60 hands at the table he is 97/61. Raises every pre flop and bets every time after. only 0.5/1 NL but he has 450+ stack

I have position on him, hes small blind, im big. I have AKs, he raise to 9, i call. Flop K 2 Q rainbow, he bets 20 i raise to 60 and he pushes all in. I call and he shows Q 4 off. Rivers a 4, the Bassa.

Few mins later i get KK, he raises to 9, i reraise to 27, he pushes all in. I call he shows 8 9 d , flop 4 8 9, turn x river K, lol.

then i get QQ he raise to 7, i flat call, heads up and flop is Q 7 4 rainbow. He bets 7, i raise to 30 and the fecker folds!!

Dying to stack this guy, hes up and down between 250 - 500 stack like a yoyo.

He left after an hour, won 2 buy ins during that time. Fecking lunatic, yet he only lost about 30 quid according to PT Stats, was outdrawing people left right and centre, showing his cards all the time for a laugh when he pushed people off hands.

Everytine he lost a pot hed say "wopps, lol". Obviously just a piss take level for him. Was fun though.

I come across players like that pretty often and often wondered whats the right plan against their game. I'd appreciate any advice on it and I guess so would the op.

Im sure the op is appreciative of your help though.

If you are isolated in a hand with him, push all in with any pair or high ace?

You should be +EV against any random hand he has, and theres a good chance he'll call with anything if he is just having a laugh at this level

If you come across an uber aggressive player, it is often useful to have him sitting on your left. You can let him do the betting for you.

Normally you like aggressive players on your right but if they are over-aggro, they will always bet when you check, it is very easy to sandbag your good hands.
(Top pair good kicker is a good hand against these players)

Yeah, was just thinking how do most play against this type of player.

keep calling his bluffs

I waited for decent hands and let him bet into me, then pushed on turn or river depending on the board- or maybe flat called if I had a marginal hand.

Not sure there was any other way to play him as he could have dog**** or the nuts and anything in between. And he will not fold 90% of the time.
