Default do all the assclowns play 20+2 ? (no poker content)

I started playing the no-limit SNGs fairly recently. There seem to be an awful lot of comments from opponents at 20+2 regarding my all-in bubble pushes. I am apparently: A) the worst poker player ever; B) the luckiest SOB ever; and C) a complete f_ing rookie. My opponents would also like me to be aware that the all-in play works every time but once. They also frequently counsel others at the table to call my BS.

I don't believe that this is putting me on tilt at all, but it does make the game less enjoyable. I don't remember this from the 10+1s, and I don't remember it in the limit SNGs either (anywhere from 10+1 to 100+9). I understand that the comparison to limit isn't so valid, since the all-in push isn't available.

Do I get to look forward to this continuing as I move up, or is this a feature of the 20s, or is this simply a small sample size of assclown clumping?

Depending on how they say it this is borderline collusion and should be reported.

Sounds more like, "Let's you and him fight!"

Congratulations, you scored 100% on the "Am I a winning player" test.

Yeah, I'm not sure I played very well yesterday. I wasn't called an idiot or a moron once. The best I got were a few "lol's" and few people saying "call".

I had about 5x the BB so from the button I pushed the blinds with garbage and got called and lost. A guy not in the hand called me a dummy. It didn't bother me much, and if he adds me to his buddy list, I'll be glad of it.

I once called a push with T7 and after they panicked " it was offsuited " was my reply.

I sometimes argue this point, explaining that I've had it fail 2, 3, even 4 times in the same tourney before.

You should be worried if you AREN'T getting comments like this.

I just happened to come across a classy simp on the 20's. HU 250/500 blinds and he called me gutsy for pushing with 94o. I think he was just being nice though... I then told him I'm only cool and brave when $40 is on the line and that I'm a total wimp in real life.
