Default How would you react? B&M Confrontation last night

I like to think that I am very respectful at the poker tables but i dont care if i was in a church, if someone says something i dont like i react.

Last night i am in the middle of my third S&G (was going to be my last). I am short stacked, weak player raises from mid pos, I see 88, so I move all in for my remaining chips. He flips over KQo, he catches a Q on the river. He jumps up, leans over the table and says Bye Bye while waiving his hand in my face. I say "what did you say?" he repeats it. My response is "Go FCK Yourself" He jumps up out of his seat and starts talking like a punk, Ill whip your ass yada yada. I fire back some verbal insults. It def was a scene.

I am curious how would you react if someone did that to you?

I am not looking for a debate on whether I reacted wrong or not, I would most likely react the same if it ever happened again. Just curious of our reaction.

I would just repeat his action back to him. Wave and say Bye Bye. Then wish the rest of the table good luck. Take the high road and it'll be even more frusterating to him.

I would smile, walk over, shake his hand, and wish him good luck. I'd show him what it's like to be a gentleman. Never understimate the power of a good example. Even if it doesn't change his behavior, I won't have to make a post about how I told somebody to go f*ck himself.

But what if you go to shake his hand and then he pulls away at the last moment and slicks his hair back? Can you really risk it?

No. You can't.

The only option is to kill his whole family, his families friends, and even the people that owe him money. Then disappear.

this isnt right. if you kill him, the people that owed him money now owe you money. you dont kill them until after they pay you. killing people that owe you money is -ev

I never said to kill him. Read it again. Just his family and his families friends. You also have to burn their homes to the ground. Death would only end his suffering. You must leave him alive to tell his tale of despair. To make sure no one ever dares to mock you again. Ever.


HIs happiness in life, in his own words, was simple: "To vanquish your enemies, to chase them before you, to rob them of their wealth, to see those dear to them bathed in tears, to clasp to your bosom their wives and daughters." --Gengis Khan

I don't know if I would go as far as to shake his hand (I'd probably pretend nothing happened Tommy style) but this is a great answer.

On the ride home I thought of better ways to handle it. But going over an shaking his hand will never be an option for me. If he had just said bye bye, its one thing, sticking your hand in my face is another. It is something I don't tolerate.
