    Default Is there a blind limit that is fish-proof?

    SERIOUSLY ....I have yet to find a NL game home/online etc. that wasnt full of people playing 8,7 off suit. Do you have to play 5000/10,000$ blinds to not get caught in a suckout?

    no... there are fish everywhere..... The problem is, the higher you go, the more the sharks follow them. So if you find a table at 5k/10k with a good fish, theres 8 other sharks to eat you up. So it's even worse than the low levels.
    Marm is back, maybe. Been off for 3 years. Rusty as Hell.

    I thought we were playing poker because of the fish? Why run away from someone willing to give away his money?

    In the OPs case, and also in my case, they take OUR money instead of the other way around. Fish mostly win big pots when I play against them, it pisses me off I'd rather not play against them.

    I agree that it is frustrating when the fish shows something totally unexpected at showdown or hits the river for a 2-outer suckout. Stuff like that makes me tilt

    But that is poker. Sometimes the fish wins a big pot or two, and the fish might be winning - Short term. But we win long term by making less mistakes than the other players, so I don't see why you would not play against a poor player unless tilt is really killing you.

    Nah it doesnt tilt me too much unless if its a guy whos consistantly getting lucky then steals a huge pot from me that shouldn't have been in the hand to begin with.
