Do you say hello to your rivals when you sit at the table? What is your attitude towards the rivals? Like to enemies or as friends or is it neutral?

P.S. What is your attitude to them when they take you everything?

The first five years of playing poker - it was a lot of nerves, discontent, and rivals with enemies))) But then I met in my life a person who completely changed my attitude to such situations. If you want to succeed, be above all this, strive to be the best in everything, and nerves, anger - they do not bring positive results.

I try to take things a little less seriously than some. Rivals and competitors will push you to be your best. Pent up animosity towards people you will inevitably spend quite of bit of time with won't do anyone much good.

I really love my rivals, because they came to give me their money, although they could go to the race :): D

I love playing poker and people who play poker !!! At the table, when I play poker, mostly people who do not know me, and everyone has their own style of playing !!! It looks very stupid if you hate the player for his style of play)))

In principle, I treat rivals normally, neutrally! But frankly speaking, of course there are negative feelings when opponents move, especially if these opponents play very loose and their level of play is very low. I understand that you need to control emotions, but when you sit in the tournament for several hours and get hit "under the train," it can not pass without a trace)

I as well as the majority treat the rivals neutrally. Sometimes, when long you plays at one table the impression about certain players who are allocated against the background of the others begins to develop. Inadequate I try to ignore, and I just play with the others at one table. It is pleasant to meet the acquaintance, or the person from the city. I try not to answer and treat on rudeness the others with respect within limits.

As to the opponents. When you're angry when neutral...different.

Poker is as much public relations as it is about anything else. Greet the opponents, make them feel comfortable, and take their stacks. You could be the mostest, bestestest player ever, but you won't win diddly if you're such an unpleasant person no one will play with you.

"What is your attitude to them when they take you everything?"

It happens. It's supposed to happen. That's what keeps the fish coming back and back. Consider it a temporary loan that they will repay with interest later on. Absolutely never cuss them out, or whine about what a bad play they just made. You don't want to be wising up the fish. Just say "Nice hand" and move on.

Being able to define and summarize would respect.

I'm competitive and I get involved in games, but I do not like disrespectful mind games that exist and a lot in live and online games

If you behave rudely or mockingly with you, how do you react? Do you think this is a tactic of some players to tilt you?

My attitude to opponents in poker is neutral, regardless of how they behave at the poker table (insults, delay time, etc.). I'm more focused on the game. I try to understand the style of play of the opponent, so that in the future the game was easier.
