Default Re: Gabe Thaler = Class Act

"Why not? Please elaborate."

It doesn't demonstrate class to shake your head in dismay when you suck out on someone.

It's not classless, it's not a bad thing, but it is unnecessary in this game. It's not tennis and these things happen. In fact, acting apologetic in these situations is sort of like when you run into someone you just broke up with and say "how are you" in that sympathetic tone that automaticall makes the other person feel bad.

I don't expect my opponents to apologize when they suck out, and it's always a bit awkward when they do. Like if you want to apologize, give me my chips back.
