I think everyone plays this big volume (10k+ matches) slight losers who like to 4-table and timebank almost every hand. I found this kind of players most annoying. No game dynamics at all, but the worst part is that you can't get enough reads on them, cause they play so slow. Eventually it comes to shallow stack game which is i guess what they need to lose less cause this stage is obv easier for dumb-multitabling. The whole match appears to be a one long boring coinflip.

Any advice on that? May be I'm missing obvious solution.

First of all 4-tabling guys with 10.000+ games usually are not losers. They might have big leaks and beat only fish, but in generally this guys can be found mainly at 30s and they are doing this for a living.

If you really found one play him, exploit his tightness, don't give them credits for big bluffs. And if it is too boring open a second game yourself.

This guys usually play to tight in and out of position, and more ofthen than not they don't multibarrel. Respect their raises to be for value and not bluffs.

You're right, I play 30's. This guys are all around this limit making -0.1 per game or so. I don't think they are too tight. Sure they have leaks, just not enough time to figure out what exact leaks they have.

you are trying to deal with two things at the same time, although you need to view them seperately: playing bad regs and playing people who time down relentlessly.

the latter is easily solved: either use the additional time for extensive thinking or load up another table. the second option is my preferred one against people who are really slow, those guys you can play on the side while focusing on another table.

the way you have to deal with bad regs is pretty straight forward: try to play a standard game that works against the "average bad reg" and adapt as you get information.

i intentionally avoided the term "unexploitable" as you should actually play an exploitative style against the aforementioned category of regs. for me, this includes raising 100% as soon as i see that they play 4 tables. usually they are not able to deal with this in the right way. either they keep playing less than 50% oop, or they start 3betting ridiculous amounts, remember they are playing 4 tables and few players are able to play marginal spots oop when 4 tabling and hence avoid flatting oop.
