If you don't get abused in chat at least once a night, you probably aren't playing optimally. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I push, BB folds, Captain calls with A3o! I catch a 5 and win the pot. He says, "LMAO. How can you go all-in with A5 you idiot?" I resist the temptation to tell him that only an idiot would limp with A3 in his position.

[/ QUOTE ]

What's substantially more bizarre is that he apparently views A3 as a calling hand, but A5 as not a pushing hand. I guess this is that reverse gap concept that Scuba mentioned a couple of weeks ago.

Table captain to my right has been criticizing everyone during the game.

Are the table captains in online games? Or just loudmouths?

Its not real witty or anything, but if im in a lull in action on other tables, and have time to argue/chirp the guy, i like to say something like:

"For all the beats you and your clones put on me..."
or
"I see the poker gods hate you. Prolly cause you're ugly."

Have the nuts: "Say hello to my lil frenn" (sound like Pacino)
Lose the hand: Ask the small stack if they play the 109s because they are really good, really so much better than the guy who just pwn3d you...

Mostly Slacking

I'm pretty sure I was in this game with you. Was it a 20+2 at party? I was cracking up at that guy the entire game. I always find players like that entertaining.

I just ignore the abuser for a about 30 seconds...then I type:

I'm sorry, did you say something? I wasn't paying attention because I was stacking your chips.

I like the people who abuse. Poker can get dull at times, so i find it entertaining when someone livens up the game

Default Re: Getting verbally abused on PP - thanks to 2+2!

From a recent SNG where I had been pushing quite a bit as the big stack, we are now heads up and I think I had pushed every hand so far (I had actually been getting pretty good hands):

tard_magnet: r u really this bad not?
nott0m: yup
tard_magnet: y do u even bother playing?
tard_magnet: how much u lose in an average month?

tard_magnet: i limp
tard_magnet: u all in right?
nott0m: I'll push
nott0m is all-In [4040]
tard_magnet folds.

As people here like to say ... if you don't get called a lucky fish at least once a night, you are probably doing somethign wrong.
