Avatars

#1 10th March 2017, 6:57 AM

Have you uploaded an avatar on your poker profile (WPN) or Card Chat? Do you read in anything into what people choose as their avatar? What thought do you put into choosing your avatar? While looking at player profiles on WPN, the majority of players have no avatar. I think it would be nice to have the avatar visible on the table while playing, possibly rep;acing the card room logo? Any thoughts?

Any avatar is a reflection of a person's psychology, how he wants to position himself as a poker player and only!

there is no psychology

I use the national flag as an avatar, I do not know what that means in poker )

Avatar kind of a carries information about you, your opponents, so I prefer to be without avatars.

An avatar definitely can be used to set a table image sometimes I change mine sometimes when I'm trying to set a different tone aka loose maniac etc

I really like ACR sometimes is harder for me to find out immediately an opponent who I have some history with. On the other hand you need to double-click on the name plate to find the info and the pic. I would preffered to be like Pokerstars.You hover the mouse on the image and pops out the country and the connection status.

I don't believe that is a con for ACR. No problem if it never changes it

I change my avatars, regardless of my mood, just because most of the users remember on the avatar.

I generally think that the avatar only interferes. Especially if someone's avatars are bright, then it distracts me from the game. Although sometimes avatars can use something useful about their opponent. I do not have poker coins (((therefore any information about opponents can be useful))
