1. Someone's a fish if they are loose. They play too many hands with little chance of winning even if they catch
2. they're a fish if they have bad positional skills. I saw a guy limp 98s utg in full ring. So nxt time he bet his flus hdraw from utg i moved all in with top pair and slaughtered his odds.
3. Passive players. A lot of good players bet in marginal situations where they MAY or at least THINk they are ahead. Aggressive players here have a lead on passives because passives run the possibility of being outdrawn.
4. Calling stations. Anyone who calls down is a fish. Basically you raise or fold you ont call, unless you flop da nutz!
5. Players who cant fold. Its easy to set up a player who cant fold because he thinks you/I bluff. These players are ATMS's and i love em. They beat my bluffs then pay my monster
6. Chasers. Anyone who cant do their pot odds is a gold mine. Overrating a draw is imo the worst thing a poker player can do, besides call with teh nutz.
7. A player who thinks im a fish. 50nl the other day. bibfish says '44 dude. why u calling my raise with 44 muck it' i laughed as id broken his KK with trips. He thought ever play i made after that was a bluff so i made 3 buy ins from him. And he said i was a fish!
8. Players who tilt. It can take 4 days to get AA. But AA at a table with a tilter is the promise of a buy in!
9. Mini raisers. Noone mini raises unless they hve teh nutz and even then you shouldnt really. But mini raiser is a fish who hasnt found the drag bar yet. You want to play against them

These are the nots i keep on players and anyone who has 2/3 or them unfortunatly has to play with me a lot.
Great post Miffed! I like to think of a fish as anyone who's a losing player.
