Stupid question for a Sunday morning...

What's it take for you to block a player's image on Poker Stars.

If someone's image annoys or distracts me in any way, I block it without a second thought. I would block all of them always, but when I do I can't see my chip count when I have cards (which is more annoying than the avatars).

I often spend the time before a SNG starts blocking 1/2 the images at the table. The first to get blocked is any close up of an eye. Then distracting faces, couples, or semiclad people. Then any children. Then sports stars or jerseys I don't like.

Later, I block the image of anyone who sucks out on me, especially if they raise their gutshot on the turn. I laugh maniacally while I do this.

Dogs, cartoon characters, chips, cards, and abstracts I'm usually cool with.

Without further ado...
