Why you NEVER make fun of other players!

The following documents why you never berate or make fun of another player at a table.


A player "Tuner" shows down a hand and looses against "MontesChuck" at which point the following conversation ensued.


MontesChuck said, "lol, tx"

Kreyszig said, "the moron kept check raising with no pairs lol"

Kreyszig said, "he paid you off lol"

Kreyszig said, "yes lol"

Kreyszig said, "hope he pays me off soon"


It is also worth noting that Tuner did not suck out on MontesChuck but lost the hand, therefore tilting can not be used as an excuse.


Lets follow what happened after that.

Tuner then left. This to me is a demonstration of players who need to satisfy their egos by berating or making fun of others, therefore causing their targets to tighten up and play better. The sad thing is those who consistantly mouth-off don't learn.

P.S. If "Tuner" happens to see this post, then I hope you don't infer, that this post is intended to point out any poor play on your part. In fact I would like to congradulate you on taking the high road and letting your play speak on your behalf.
