Jerk on Party

[SomethingClever]

Ok, I'm gonna out this guy's screen name because he deserves it.

I was at a very nice table when this guy began berating the other players after nearly every hand.

So, I try to defend the fish a bit, which leads to this guy challenging me to a HU match, offering to buy me a plane ticket to his house (presumably to fight him????) and making obscure threats.

After he left the table, he even threatened me through one of those table invites, saying stuff like "I've got a surprise for you... you shouldn't use your real name on you poker account" etc.. I think he was referring to my screen name, which is a person's name, but not mine.

Anyway, should I report him? Should I be worried about him trying to hack into my account?

His username is Gotohellmuth and he's a real prick.

When dealing with table a-holes, there's no such thing as taking prisoners; fire your guns at once - always report to Party when in doubt. He'll get his chat banned for some (short) time. Chances are he'll learn his lesson.

Here's the email I sent to vip@empirepoker.com

Hi, I just wanted to let you know that I was
threatened through chat by a player on the site today.

His user name is Gotohellmuth, and we were playing
together today on table 11336 at $5/$10 6-max.

I have kept a transcript of the chat if you need it.

This player made vague threats against me, and my
screenname in particular. Is there any way I can
change my screen name? Also, is there any way this
player's chat can be banned?

Thanks,

XXXXXXX

They'll probably just ban his chat.

He's a clown. There were people at the table that were like 95/0 and he was screaming at them.

Played 100NL 6 max with him on Sunday ("HE" has a female avatar).

Funny thing is, after he runner runnered nut flush vs a flopped broadway, the guy he beat behaved exactly as what you described. He was actually well behaved during the entire session, of course he was sucking out pretty hard so maybe "all was well" with him.

Nonetheless, I certainly wouldn't worry about anything he said.

This also seems to describe about 1/20 players I encounter.

If this is on party itself, look around in the account options there, you can change your screen name, but not your account name, I'm not sure about the skins.

I say write an email saying he was threatening but that's it and I would totally forget about it.
