Intentionally trying to put people on tilt
Be it 'ty' 'nh 'thx' 'sorry, can't talk, i'm stacking your chips'.
Is it immoral? Intentionally trying to get people riled so they blow a couple of stacks. Which they maybe can't afford to lose. |

As long as you aren't being annoying to everyone else, go for it.

Re: Intentionally trying to put people on tilt
I dont think theres anything immoral about putting your opponents on tilt. The only thing is, you need to know exactly how they go on tilt since you'll need to adjust your game to take advantage of their new 'tilty' play. Since i usually dont know enough about how an op. will play if I taunt him, i usually just keep my mouth shut.

Re: Intentionally trying to put people on tilt
A nice portion of my earn at the 10/20 came from singling out fish and berating them and challenging them to hu. It can backfire though if they leave. I consider it part of poker. So under the scope of (online) poker, it isn't immoral.
Live games might be different though because you can get into actual confrontations with people and it could get really nasty. I think online anything goes though. |

[/ QUOTE ] Regarding that last part, putting them on tilt and stacking their mortgage payment is no different from being polite and stacking their mortgage payment. I'm not entirely comfortable with it in either case, to be honest, but there's no difference between your making them stupid and their sitting down stupid to begin with. I'm something of an etiquette Nazi, but even I think that that's just part of poker. |

Re: Intentionally trying to put people on tilt
Immoral? Would you think even for a split second that it was immoral to bluff into a massive pot, potentially one that your opponent "could not afford to lose"? How about to value-bet the nuts?
It's not immoral. I'd be careful where I go with it, though; sometimes for the sake of your action with others, you want to maintain the moral high ground (esp. in a regular game). As for live games, baiting and berating are two VERY different things. |
