I like when players write shit on chat. I know how to fish with poor mindset. I like exploit this players and they often give me your chips. Do not talk about a poker hand you're not in. Ofc this but not only when fold. When we play don`t write your hand in chat too! Sometimes this is good when I'm playing with only one player. IMO this is extra poker tells! Slowrolling of is really bad etiquette. Players play slowroling before satelites is end. I think that this is OK, because sometimes I play this slowrolling, when satelites is ending. Support once sent me, that this isn`t not allowed in a satelites too. Most players play slowrolling when satelites ending and ofc this is not allowed, but for me this isn`t bad etiquette in this them. I play now still without chat and my mindset is better when without chat. I only play with chat, when I want to write extra tells to fish :) When I play without chat I think that players sometimes when thay write to me "nh or gg, gl' thay can think that this is my bad etiquette, becouse I don`t write nothing to them!

Slowrolling is not the same as slowplaying.
You describe slowplaying, alas taking the time to sneek into the prizes in satelites or climbing the payladder......nothing wrong with that actually.
Slowrolling is about having the nuts when last to act against an all-in and still taking a lot of time before calling.
Quite annoying is going all-in and someone takes all his time, using the timebank, finally calls showing AA.

I do not like that when the player starts to lose his chips, he tries to destabilize you with words offensive against our country, then at the right time I make a point of eliminating him and giving a nice bye.

It happened to me once they insulted me and my style of play on the table due to my country of residence, that is, the country where I live. It really bothered me, because of the racist way they did it. As if the place was you born defined the kind of person you are. However, I have not answered and I kept playing my game. For my fortune, the aggressive was eliminated early because he did nothing but talk in the chat and annoy others. When something like this happens, I know it's not worth wasting your time or letting it affect the way you play. You should not answer and lower yourself to the level of the other. The best you can do is ignore it.

The article could be titled Poker Etiquette because there is nothing in it that only applies to online poker. It should be common sense that you should use the same etiquette online as you would live.

a Short time I was very uncomfortable with bad players and bullies, last month I just blocked their chat, and a quick and easy way to solve the problem since it is online.

I usually keep to myself and ignore chat.

I try and not take forever and get sit-out all the time.

These rules are so obvious... But I saw people doing all these things a lot of times. When I started to play poker I had to to learn how to deal specially with bad words and insults. I found that the problem was not with me, but with people who have psychological issues and use the internet to express their inside demons, whether on news sites, social networks or even online games.

It`s really very useful article! I often want to explain some players how bad was their game and it`s my big mistake! Another my weakness is to throw tomatos on 888 poker tables. I don`t wish anything bad for my #targets# , I do it just for fun)

I in particular go by rule # 3, there are many players who tend to be aggressive in the chat, when one wins a hand or we give a badbeat, I try not to respond to avoid temptation, but if I have many players tagged, and think that there is no opinion on a hand in progress is a lack of ethics like playing, and if behind a PC many think they own the world, but there are rules in poker that if you do not meet them you go ..

That's exactly what I do. Turn off the chat box. I am not going to lie sometimes I'll let a player get to me, but I have learned to control going on till or so-called trying to get revenge. LOL. Actually I lied about completely turning off the chat box if someone played a hand well and did beat me I will give him the respect by telling him nice hand. Or if we make final table in a tournament. I'll go ahead and tell the table good game and good luck to everyone.

I'm a beginner and I do not remember going through any such situations, but I think keeping a friendly game is always good. Everyone has fun. And I totally agree with those who are not accustomed to considering good practice for an online game. Very good this article!

I usually only analyze the chat, to see how bad the players can be with each other, I usually report aggressions, even if they are not aimed at me, after all, everything is good, education we bring from home, nobody likes to be in a place where his whole family is offended without motives, one day was at a table, when a player knew to say ... I wish cancer for all his family>
if they are offended, denounce, never permit

True but - if you include live poker the list gets a whole lot longer! :p

That it does... I once saw a guy who had been banned from the Casino for a month for trying to start a fight do the exact same thing his first day back. Some people never learn.

Yep - I have seen some atrocious behavior live. One guy kept putting his hand on my leg inappropriately and I had to get him thrown out.

Interesting read. I see some people here that say others talk too much. The problem with over-chatters.. is easily fixed with block chat. I rarely chat with people, but when I do, I make a pretty good conversation and every time there's someone at the table saying "stop chatting, you're annoying". Yo, just block me. If I'm not saying anything interesting now, I ain't gonna say anything interesting to you later.

Flaming, I do it, but it usually comes at a reply and I hate people giving 'poker lessons' on each hand. Though I occasionally laugh at 72o alliners.. :)

That’s messed up. I never understood how some people think all social conventions go out the window just because they’re in a Casino gambling.

I rarely use the chat box unless it’s a CC tournament, as the people are always friendly, but it does make me laugh when you see people arguing and tilting each other.

I don’t mind if people sometimes take a while to act because they are playing multiple tables as I do this myself.

Actually, I think opening up the conversation to include your thoughts on live poker has revived this conversation and made some interesting points! I am interested in hearing what others have to say about that.

in most cases on tournaments I see a soft-spoken chat, but sometimes meet villains, which are beginning trolling all consecutive, and even very it's a shame vyskazatsya on national origin. there are people who join them in a skirmish. read very interesting, for fun I can write a few phrases, but not a lot, because it takes time and distracts from the gameplay. mostly my communication boils down to emoticons. but I am so well-mannered that I do not write dirty insults.

I think that in general it is necessary to remove a chat with online poker
