Hi.
I saw the retribution thread about rigtards, and I invent topic.
So, how do you think - players from which country are the worst - play like kids, play with nothing and win , play like crazy, like fish, steal blinds, etc. etc.
I thought about create a poll - but there are so many countries, that I don't create it for now... Maybe some answers will be the same, so I make the poll with the most frequent countries.

for me players from russia suck out the most, but i guess its just because their are alot of russian players on full tilt. getting called near the bubble for their 75% stack with hands like 7-9 offsuit and they hit their streets vs kings of mine etc. i always hit tilt then

I often see 4 or more Russians at the same table. I can't say the same for any other nationality. So naturally a lot of them will be terrible players. I have seen bad players from every country I can think of. Can't really say any one has a higher percentage of bad players than the others.

Good day everyone There are good and bad players everywhere ... i dont want to brand them by worst players in the name of their country ... and i see a lot of russians everywhere ... they are a big majority in all tables as i have seen i see atleast 2-3 in every single table at all point of time ... so as the players are high people may may say they are worst but i have seen some of the best among them too !!!

Hard to tell which country has the worst, guess they all have bad players but since Russia has so many players all over the sites and alot of them play a super agrotard style i would say they are the most annoying of them all, when they call a raise with 28 off and hit it's hard not to get mad on them. The Russians who are good are really good tho.

I don't really think that you can say whether a country has good or bad poker players. You just have very experienced, good players and players who have little experience. Although there are indeed a lot of Russian poker players around. Although I did lose a lot from Russians and Germans lately..

I realy don't kinow who vote Germany... They are good players and they play for value. Maybe he/she had a bad experience with an DE player... Every country has bad players. The most are from Russia and former Russian states. Don't know why..they have something in their blood...and i say this b/c the most bad experiences comes from them.

i think in general the most bad players to good players ratio would probably be russia because most of them are just learning, poker is becoming really popular over there now, but u gotta be careful if u play like they are all fish then the russian sharks are gonna bite u in the arse lol
also i dunno why you'd put germany up there, almost every time i encounter a german they usually play pretty solid, some of the general best european players in my travels of the poker tables lol

Hello, I definetly choose Russians on top. ( i don't know if it's because from vodka or something else on how they play poker. ) Then the others: Romania, Canada( there are alot of good players, but they are annoying), UK, Germany.

Posted by zeroster: Whichever country has the largest number of players. I really think it's that simple.
Agreed - which is exactly how it panned out in retributions thread about countries most likely to be rigtards.
not exactly sure about that- i'd say an average players from usa (back in the days when they could play anywhere) is/was way better type of player to find yourself playing against than an average player from russia, and not just russia (and not just russia- eastern europeans (that would be me too) are generally way poorer in all terms: money, behavior, quality of play etc.) i'm not saying it's black or white- there are plenty of morons everywhere...but still believe typical us/uk donk is way better than typical russian donk (no offense russians, just my opinion/observation)

G'day mates
Well I personal love to hate Russian donks. Please do not get me wrong I know some Russian poker players who are great players and nice to be at a poker table with as well. However I have had so many negative experiences while playing Russian players on PStars that I cringe sometimes when I MUST play a hand against them. The suck uts are unreal and many of them calling stations just can not find there fold buttons ever and somehow they keep sucking out wins by the river card.

As I stated in a previous e-mail I really hate to choose a country that represents having the largest share of donks, but if I have to I'm going to have to be honest.
I only play on Carbon poker and most of their players are from the U.S. so I can only pick the country where I play the most donks and that's right here in the good old U.S. There's a lot of donks, but there's a lot of good players.
Since I rarely play against anyone from another country it would be unfair to pick any other country to take the donk role.

russians are just so unpredictable(not all but the bad ones) whereas even like pochui said, the english/american ones are at least a little predictable, id say there more of an atm whereas russians its like playing bingo, never get it in proflop with them, wait for the best hand by the river then shove it down there throat

i dont pay atention or care about a players nationalty while playing poker, i think that making such assumptions really doesnt help you game. i know what players to look out for but couldnt tell you where they are from.
, play like crazy, like fish, steal blinds, etc. etc.
