888Poker: Exploitative Poker

February 23, 2022


An exploitative strategy in poker is when you look for imbalances in your opponent’s game and craft strategies to take advantage of opponent's poor play. In contrast, game theory optimal (GTO) is about trying to find a perfect playing style that cannot be exploited.

The best thing about exploitative poker is that there is no entry requirements, even beginners can use this strategy at the table. Players at low stakes have so many weaknesses and tendencies that can be taken advantage of, and exploitative poker is almost always going to be more profitable than GTO.

Exploitative poker is not really a new way of playing. It's just that the poker world have now come up with a fancy name for it.
