Chat Window Tactics.

I think it's -EV to try to use chat to gain an advantage. You may gain Vs one player, only to find that the information you give to the other 8 is to your detriment. Why give the good players any info or reads?

Saying funny things is +EV and saying nice things is +EV.

If someone is prone to tilt saying mean things may be +EV, but there is also a -EV risk there so it's best not to.

I was playing with a guy who said "hi, i like poker." about once a minute. I don't think it helped him much but it gave everyone a chance to make fun of him when he busted out.

I rarely ever chat. If you have time to chat you have time to play +1 more sng then you are currently playing.

And if the numbers say i have to play it, i welcome your move.

Theres a difference between no gain and negligable gain. Ultimately i agree that its just shouting into nothingness most of the time. But for that 1 in X times, thats money you make by definition.

I only singletable, so yeah, when i start multitabling i know this is something i wont be doing.

I always talk about how I read "play poker like the pros by Phil Hellmuth". I find that I get a ton of respect at the table after letting them know.

I don't know why I'm finding that so funny

I was sitting at a table earlier in the week when the poker prophecy spam came up "is the player to your left a fish? find ou(. . .)" Someone at my table quickly typed in "whats a fish?" Anyone remember that thread a while back? yeah, I said supbro and got a supbro back

This was live, but it pertains to the topic, so I'll post it anyway. This is copy and pasted from the EPT Deauville Report on my website

I was down to just under 60,000 chips with the blinds at 10,000 and 20,000. It was my big blind, and I was in awful shape. I told the table, “Just so you guys know, I have to call here with any two, so feel free to fold.” I placed my chips on top of my cards before I looked at them, to show the table that I wasn’t joking.

I think saying this line was hugely +EV.
