Don't run off bad players!

If someone at your table is playing poorly don't verballly assualt them, just sit quietly calmly play your cards and exploit there bad decisions.

Another reason you shouldnt abuse other players at the table is there we are all from very different places with many different stlyes. Everyone has the same fundementals but anyone who knows anything its the players will to step out side the box make adventerous creative plays, Those are the most dangerous because of unperdictability which as as a player is exactly what you want. I don't know how many times I can say it aggression is key and position is way more powerful then cards if you have the proper table image.

Not sure everyone has the same fundamentals, but then again, define fundamentals. But totally agreed, use their poor play to your advantage and play your cards. Also agree with position, but I'm not agrgressive enough to use it to the fullest advantage that others do. That is my weakest link. But when I got the nuts, well...nevermind. lol

Yes, I totally agree (except for the fundamentals part). I wrote a blog article about this very subject a little while back:

omg I love it!

If you start running your mouth, you'll do 2 things. 1) get better players watching you, to see if you're on tilt. If you're not, then they'll still see what kind of player you are more clearly then, and you'll lose out from that, but they won't care that you're running your mouth, and 2) players in it for the fun of it may get put off by the bad atmosphere, and leave.
So calling people donkeys or whatever tends to elicit the worst response from both good and bad players.
It's possible that you can make people expect you to tilt, and then catch them out, but since the main profit is from tapping up the pond life rather than going against the big guns, it's probably better to be polite. If you get a good hand and lose to a lucky draw, then a little NH may make them feel even better about being at the table, and hopefully they'll stay long enough to give the chips back

yea or stay atleast long enough to have a sahot at getting your $ back.

totally agree.

I to agree don't run the poor players out of the game. Poor players and their mistakes is what make good players their profit. As well please DO NOT educate the fish, be polite so they keep coming back to the tables.

These are the players i say nice hand to if they win a pot or unlucky if they lose a pot!! Be nice to these players.

There is nothing worse than when someone gets rid of the worst player at the table by mouthing off!!

Actually, the guy mouthing off is usually the worst player.
