Re: Love it when they insult you after hit n run
Online poker is full with all kinds of racist dirt-bags, who feel very comfortable about speaking their minds. Relatively often I have to read antisemitic comments, for instance, or to sit by someone with the ID "Gestapo-SS". I always report them, and I don't think it is weak to do so. They deserve to get their chat permanently off, and some IDs are way too offensive to be allowed (on Stars there are such icons too, I have personally made support block few icons).

Re: Love it when they insult you after hit n run
leave the chat off if you cant handle it...
it seems like all online players like to talk smack... so thats what i do. there is a tremendous amount of information in that smack. as a matter of fact, it is really only one of a couple of reliable online tells. you don't have to engage in the conversation. you can pretend it is off, but imo, one should never actually turn chat off. i have been playing alot of live poker lately and when i get home and decide to play a SnG to unwind, i realize that internet poker is really a math game more than a traditional poker game. the reason for this is the absence of reliable tells. turning chat off is similar to blasting your ipod so loud at B&M games because you are tired of all the trash talk. many pros say they pretend they can't hear to avoid having to be brought into the fray, but they never miss a word that is spoken. |
Re: Love it when they insult you after hit n run
last week i was amazed at what i read in the chat.
i'm in a hand with this other guy i flopped top2 with KJ, then check raised the turn of a T. he thinks then calls. river is an A. in the chat i see "i have a Q, i'll check if u do" so i do and sure enough the guy shows Q9. he later said he read me for AQ but didn't say y he called if he read me for the nuts on the turn. |

Yeah, I never turn off chat. Forget about tells, it's just plain entertaining.

Re: Love it when they insult you after hit n run
Online poker attracts the best and brightest, all right.
