I'm pretty new to poker, but I've been playing regularly in cardrooms for a couple months now.
I just started moving up to higher limits and played some 6 hours of profitable poker today. I dealt with my first couple of dickheads. One guys kept cursing at me and the dealer when he lost.. I talked him out of it by saying "sorry I got lucky man, better luck next time" or something of that sort. I kind of got sick of doing it after every pot he was involved in, though. Another guy told me to %#%# myself because I called "time", I replied by calling him something back, I nearly wanted to hit him after he ran off his big mouth for another good minute, but eventually I just ignored him. I'm amazed I had the self-control not to make some condescending remark to him once he busted out about 20minutes later.
This game wasn't as fun as the low limit tables--where everyone's drinking and having a good time. :/
