So the blinds are 10/20, stacks are 1500. I open any button to 40, he clicks it back to make it 60 total then bomb the flop. What do I do?

 

People who bloat the pot blocking a smallball approach. These people bomb every pot by betting the pot on any street for 3 streets. How do I tackle this?

 

What do I do about people who donk bet pot after the flop hits? It seems like heads up is so full of fish, yet they keep taking my money because they make such unorthodox play and I'm not deep enough to counter their play without getting commited. 

 

Poker hasn't been profitable for me lately anymore, because of these players. I need to know how to tackle them. It's so frustrating knowing you have an edge, then having to play a guessing game because their bet sizing makes no sense. I need help, and I need it bad. Someone who can go over a HH of mine would be just great if they'd be willing.

I moved this here because it's more of a strategy question than a question about being a pro.

“What do I do about people who donk bet pot after the flop hits?”

 
some counter strategies:

         click back flops with your air. nice price on the bluff. Villain strugle to 3b air with flops,
         even teh pros need to muster some courage for this line.

         stop opening hands that get pwnd by his weird 3b CIB range (middle suited connecters/gappers etc. that
         make middle/low pairs which cant stand heat)

         4b wide, small bet sizing. Make 1/4 cbets and barrell off scary cards. (CIB 4b for lulz and watch him think 
         “wtf” with a tank)

         be creative. think outside the box, be prepared to do weird shit (click backs, overbets, turn pairs into bluffs,
         abuse time bank)  

         Orthodox play gets abused, be the abuser.

 

make villains life hell. 3b him constantly. min raise the button and min cb flops. Try everything, throw the kitchen sink and really think outside the box. 

 

Watch Money Maker vs Eric Seidel in the HU tv series for the championship. Moneymaker throws every trick in the book. Fortunately for us we dont play Seiborg.

Thanks man, I'll try everything. I took a break from HUSNG, but I'll try playing them as weird as I can, lol.
