| donkey, fish, noob? not sure where to put this post so starting it here, does any established or players that have been playing awhile still use these terms? I remember when I 1st started playing I used to call people this stuff all the time but after awhile it just seems lame to me. Maybe it is because I play so many tables that I don't have time to type out some witty "nice call donk". or maybe it is just because now we realize that stuff happens and get over it. I just don't see a point in sitting there screaming and calling someone a donk or fish. To me it just sounds stupid anyone else? |

| If some fool beats me with a dumb play that hits lucky, I`ll usually say nothing. If I say anything at all, it`ll be "NH". After all, I don`t want to warn him that he`s playing stupid. I need him to keep doing it, so I can get my chips back. |

| Id like to not say anything, and i agree it is pointless. But i just cant help my self when you play a $5 sitNgo and someone goes allin 1st hand with Q4, you call with KK and lose, and then they call you a donk (before you have even said anything), for going all in with kings in the 1st hand. |

| The problem with insulting a fish or donk when they make a bad play that pays off is that you may make them realize that you're right and they'll play better...that's not good. I like to express comedic frustration then congratulate them on a good play with subtle sarcasm |
