A table captain is an aggressive player that seems to be in every pot, dictating the way that you – and the rest of the table – plays.
The way they do this is through intimidation, which makes you want to avoid playing against them. You’ll throw away marginal hands out of position and you won’t try to make moves on them, as you’ll worry that they’ll come back at you.
Although they can get into trouble when people slow-play hands against them, it’s generally a huge advantage to be the table captain.
