Hi all.

Something I think I am comming to terms with is either the aggressive player, being card dead, getting sucked out by the short stack.

I go back even only a few weeks and I`m sure I was thinking "They are picking on me so I have to get them back"

NOT THE CASE.

I have found that I try to ignore the table bully and wait for the right time, being patient - the cards will come, not pushing the shortstack unless I have a good hand or read.

Just an observation have made, don`t know if u all agree?

Poker is a game of gentleman or is supposed to be. I notice many players are complete jerks after they win a big hand by sucking ot on a rag hand and it sickens me.

Poker used to be a game of respect and honor and now it has just gone to hell

It IS personal...when some loser calls you a donk because you bet him.

That's so frustrating:)

I don't take it personally

I know there can be Many reasons for the Beat I just took, or gave

I tell most every player to Enjoy it, while it lasts that is :cool:

It's part of the game :)
Getting a player to steam a bit and tilt away is fun sometimes.
When someone tries to do that to you, just stay cool and smile.

I find its always best just to say gg and click out if you lose and if you win, just let the person tilt away more chips. People get reps for having horrible manners at the table and it is that much sweeter when they get it.

It is all about timed aggression. My whole game style is pretty much to get people like you to fight back. Don't get in that habit of picking wrong spots.
