Default Hold\'em Scumbags

Hello, anyone else out there automatically hate all the other players when they join an online hold'em table? In particular the lowlifes that inhabit the 6 man tables?

It may not seem like it, but I sort of mean this to be a serious thread. I don't feel this way when I play Omaha8b, Stud, or Stud8b. Why do I hate the hold'em players so much?

Maybe its because I always think I'm losing a pot to some goofball who learned his craft solely by watching WPT reruns?

Maybe its because its alot more obvious in hold'em that they sucked out?

Maybe its the great deal of luck in between starting hands and what happens on the flop?

Maybe its because I don't consider a person to be a true poker player unless they play a game other than hold'em?

Maybe its because I consider the other games to be more skillful?

Maybe most hold'em players are scumbags and lowlifes, and I'm just really good at reading people?

Maybe I have issues? lol

Chesspain, I looked at your past posts, you seem to be strictly a hold'em player...

Are you alright? Sounds like you need a good cry. That or Jesus. You decide.

1) You have issues, [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] 2) it is easier to see that they beat your KK (90%) vs their KQo (10%) and they do not understand that it was a suckout and 3) nature of the game.

A natural inborn misanthropy can be leveraged into a career in terrorism. Think about it, you could go boom boom at the B&M.
