Default Re: What gets under your skin when playing a poker game?

People who berate, coach, or make snide remarks to the bad players.

Rudeness in general.

That's about it. Oh, an throw in players who multi-table and don't care if they slow down the game. Yes, I'm at three of your tables, and I see that you're in the middle of big hand on this one. That doesn't mean you have to take 30 seconds to fold your 84o on the other one.

Along this quote I got a good one, this guy hits a 1 outer to beat me, yes a 1 outer, so anyway I dont say a word I figure whatever it happens. Some other guy hits a monster draw on him some sort of straight flush draw type of thing, and he snaps at him, hes like "omg you stupid fish, you dont even know what your doing etc..."

The most annoying opponent in the history of poker, a fish that gets lucky and hits 1 and later hit me with a 2 outer, and then yells at the other fish and tells them they suck, now that annoyed me.

Default Re: What gets under your skin when playing a poker game?

Happened just today: some maniac zaps in, plays almost every hand for about 20 minutes, stacks up a huge gain by cracking AA and KK a few times with rivered straights and trip deuces (calling down raises and 3-bets the whole way), then flees like a little girl before I can take advantage of his eventual regression to the mean.

Mind you, I DO immediately add him to my buddy list, but still...

I can deal with the suckouts, but you just know that's the kind of player who brags to everyone about how well he does at poker.

Default Re: What gets under your skin when playing a poker game?

People who complain about people staying in and hitting basic draws.

Last time I played live, some young 18ish kid loses to an older guy who had just hit his flush and check/raised him on the river. The kid starts verbally berating the old man for staying in with a flush draw. The saddest part was this was at 2-5 spread limit.

After I hit my flush draw today, the chatbox reads:

riverloser: XXXXXX lucky XXXXX

Flush draws are like 2 outers, right?
