I don't like when ppl do that either. I think its some sort of ego trip or something.

Of course it has everything to do with insecurity. Perhaps they should replace the berating with "my dad is stronger than your dad".

Re: so many regular 2+2 posters
 

there is nothing more annoying than this. you should thank people who make bad plays. personally i think anything sarcastic, rude, abusive, etc. is just stupid. why do you want to rile up the people you are trying to take money from? most people at the table just peg you as the jerk to take out and spend the whole game plotting against you.

personally i turn my chat off so i don't have to deal with any of it.

but really - show some maturity and restraint and be thankful there are people out there that make bad plays all day long.

meanwhile, there is nothing wrong with a nice sarcastic:

nice call.


when someone calls with a better hand than yours that they shouldn't have called with.

I'm afraid the sarcasm is not always clear, too many think they made a nice call......which is long term +EV however...

I think a better response is nr
nice result

It showed up on Atlantic Trout a few weeks ago. I like it.

Re: so many regular 2+2 posters
 

If someone is really a jerk, I'll usually start berating myself. "Dumba*ss Slacker, you shoulda folded that garbage." Slack's an idiot!

That kind of thing tosses them for a loop especially if you really get over the top in kicking your butt on every play.

Try it, you'll like it.....

Well the guy who did the KJ suckout, later on folded 99 in his SB to my button push, and as I had A8o, I was very thankful for it. He said "anyone but you and I call" so hey, being nice to the "fish" can have a positive result.

Re: so many regular 2+2 posters
 

I've seen 2+2 posters berate fish at the $215 sngs, and then say stuff like "Don't you know anything about ICM?" "You didn't have any fold equity", "With my pot odds I was going to call regardless" and things of that nature.

It's one thing to call them morons, it's another to clue them in to the fact that maybe these SNGs aren't so straightforward.

Re: so many regular 2+2 posters
 

Yeah its unbelievably stupid. I lose so much respect for someone when I see them berating a player like that.

Re: so many regular 2+2 posters
 

lol, the 2+2er is still at it, just called someone else a fish. So pathetic.

Re: so many regular 2+2 posters
 

Slacker, you have got to be the dumbest piece of dog sh*t i have ever met.....berating your self, gimme a f'n break. do us all a favor and quit posting here.
