Default Re: Putting Fish to the Flame. Harmless fun, or education?

You missed half of what I said. Even if the fish remains, he and everyone else at the table will play differently because of the atmosphere you have created. Instead of calling bullshit all the time, having fun when they hit, and enjoying themselves, they're now trying to beat you. They'll try to bluff, they'll try to pull funky check-raises, they'll 3-bet you out of pique, and that's all bad for you. They're not going to learn about the odds or correct technical play, but making a fish angry is only going to make him play better.
