Every now and then, there's always a chance of meeting a poker player who's always too aggressive whenever he's playing. They are always in on every hand and he will raise half of them. Whenever such a player make a raise, others end up folding. He always dominate the table.

Have you experienced playing against such a player? How do you deal with playing against this player?
 
I've met a couple of them, but how I always scale through is by staying calm and always smiling. I do not like a situation where I end up losing because of how a rival is acting.
 
You can't let someone bully you out of a hand, yet at the exact same time you don't want to play with a losing hand so that's where strategy come into play.
 
I generally try not to think about how other players are playing, I just stick to my own game and take it from there.
 
I would go to a different table, I rather not play someone who makes the game so heated.
 
I tighten up starting hands, wait for strong hands, and trap aggressive players with check-raises or all-ins. That's how I deal with them!
