I have a picture of myself hitting a filled up bong. Try to take me seriously.

I really hate people who have pictures of babies or dogs.

Me too, that's why I always block them.

My pic is Timmy from South Park. Whenever I put a bad beat on someone and get berated, I just type TIMMEH! in the chat box.

I have a cow with her tongue sticking out. I have no idea if it has any effect on people nor did I select it based on any effect it might have.

I just like cows.

something thats offensive, not saying I believe it, but something politcally incorrect, racist....I can't believe I actually put thought into this...just go with the puppy.

I have an incredibly offensive party name, I think it causes people to take lots of shots at me. I'm not even kidding.

I think there is a line that you shouldn't cross in getting people to hate you.

Default Predictability

Predictable opponets are easier to defeat. Opponents that don't remember you are easier to defeat. Why do something that would negate both of those.

Wow. So do I.

I think it stems from being disgusted with their petty sense of pride.

Default Re: Predictability

Personally I don't care if anyone thinks I'm predictable, because my game is fluid. If my pic/handle makes it easier for them to remember the guy who only plays premium hands or will go all-in on anything, good for me... and if you remember me as the guy you can't pin down, even better.

If they're good enough to take advantage of trends in my play, they're probably using more efficient tools than a simple mnemonic anyway.

As for other peoples' images, I don't care. I may think your "superstar" pic of a dude with shades and hat brim pulled low makes you look like a poseur, but it doesn't impact my analysis of your play. It won't make a difference to a pro, and in my opinion if they're stupid enough to be influenced by a pic from Rounders or some such it's just as likely a fish will think you know what you're doing as they are to think you're a goober.

Just played with some guy who had "White Pride World Wide"-Logo. I quess that might put some of your opponents on small tilt, im also surprised pokerstars allows a logo like that.
