this was just an exceptionally bad table
I flopped nut st8 once, and got run down by 10/4 offsuit who went runner/runner I had QQ and lost to KK - I had KK and lost to AA after a while, I just quit...I figured I was good enough to beat it, but ya know....God wouldn't let me...LOL RB |

"whiskeytown: I learned from watching the WPT"
LMAO! Classic. Yeah I had a run in with someone of the same mental calibur yesterday on Party Poker myself. I was in late position with K 9 suited with no raises behind me. Flop hits X 9 9. Everyone checked and I bet. Everyone folded except for one guy. We play to the river and he was in awe that I beat him with a set of 9's. Insisting that playing K 9 suited was a horrible call and blah, blah, blah... The only time I ever say anything is when someone makes a horrible call, like reraising me with 8 4 offsuit in early postion. Of course I'lljust say, " you reraised me with that?". |

[/ QUOTE ] Don't do this. Don't ever, ever, EVER antagonize or question a fish. A fish, like a customer, is always right. |

I'm not saying I put them down. I'm just pointing out that the mistake of reraising with 8 4o in early position. Now you might say don't give them any advice but I doubt they'll listen anyway.

[/ QUOTE ] Only two things can come of you giving them advice: 1) They don't listen and instead get mad -- not a good thing, despite how many people like to try and put people on tilt. When mad, a fish may play better to spite you, may take shots at you when you least want them to, or may even leave the game. 2) They do listen, even just a little, and play just a little better. Neither is a good thing. I understand the desire to say "WTF?" at some of this stuff, but what good does it do YOU, personally? Do you really want them to stop playing 84o like a retard? If so, you have a bad understanding of how money is made in poker. If not, then you shouldn't say a word about bad play. Nothing personal, but this is easily my biggest pet peeve. |

If you're playing shy because God/variance/LadyLuck doesn't like you today, then you're on tilt and need to stop playing -- you definitely shouldn't keep playing in weak-tight mode. |

Yeah just use 'nh' instead of insulting people.
This may induce them to play in the same predictable manner. Predictable is good. nh = WTF?! nh = You played THAT?! nh = You suck! nh = frickin suckout! nh = nice hand (for those royals or straight flushes) |
