I just cant help but notice all these loud mouthes running around the micros,they post minimal to moderately decent rois but carry on like they are the next phil ivey.they berate players everytime they lose,they always seem to forget all the times they got it in bad 2nd pair vs top pair and sucked out.they get angry when they get all in with their weak 2nd pair against a monster draw that is actually the fav.they carry on about how awesome they are and how everyone else is just a fish.and despite all this some actually do have impressive records and rois,however,i notice that few if any of them ever ever have the stones to actually move up. I just finished playing 14 matches against one of these wanna uber jocks,8000 games at the 6$ limit on carbon poker with a 8% roi,he talks like he is a world class player with a coaching site yet has never even tried to move up once.he had absolutely no class,in game or in the lobby,the man would just open sit every available table which is so irritating to me....do you really need to sit more than 3?needless to say I went 12-2 against him only ever got it in bad once.but it was a good play vs his range....the other time he hit runner runner ftw. what ever happened to gentlemen or ladies sitting the tables.....you know,GL,NH ect. sometimes i wish they would invent an app that allows you to back hand people over the internet.
What's wrong with haveing 8% ROI at the $6 tables? What's the problem with a fish berating a fish?I really don't see the problem.And about class at the table..... in the internet......sorry, but I really see no reason why I should post something like GL because I simply would not mean it and so would 99% of the population. It's the same with NH....most of the times when I've seen someone writting this in chat it ment "nice sucking out, pigface". I generally see no reason to talk with my opponents unless I can tilt them off with the chat / convince them for a rematcht, other than that it is just distraction and therefore -EV.
Hi.
there is nothing wrong at all with posting an 8% roi at the $6 level over 7k games....its quite impressive.but when you overtly berate people who hit a draw or call down your obv bluff,calling people stupid mofos cuz u didnt like their open when you should have just kept your trap shut.acting like you are some super hero big shot that knows all there is to know about poker and who could crush the nosebleeds but have never ever had the balls to move up even once i find it pretty funny.yet the biggest irony is the stakes these people play,they are amazed to see such poor play at the micros yet the reason they play there is exactly that. i dont mind at all personally when these people go on their tangents,I just wonder where it comes from.pretty obvious however that most of them had swingsets facing the wall as kids.And internet or no internet.i suppose some people simply have some class and others have non.
Just block all chat, problem solved :) Unless if you want to talk to other people... Maybe just ignore them, or block them specifically once they start arcing up
Always block chat unless you can use it to tilt. +1 for above poster
When juveniles are still winning, you know the games are in no danger of dying. Always look at the bright side of this stuff.
I've suffered a lot of abuse lately... I wonder why people even bother.
Don't tap the glass guys.. Berating players in the chat is bad. It gives fish bad experiences and might make a fish not come back.
lol I read something like that in a Phil Gordon book, "don't tap on the aquarium" :)
