Since most poker players are guys I always assume they are unless they have a clearly female screen name (that I as an English speaking person would recognize). Most screen names are gibberish to me. I've long since stopped trying to figure out why people use screen names that only they would understand.

Natyvini has no meaning to me, male or female, so I will always assume it is male. Is your real name Natalie? Is Naty short for Natalie in brazil?

I've also seen a lot of guys using clearly female avatars, so that too is usually meaningless. Lots of guys are proud of their children and will use baby pics as their avatars. I'm quite proud of my gandkids and have thought about using one of their pics as an avatar.

To me Terry is cleary a male name. BTW, I think I'm going to change my banner to TheCanuckWithNoLuck. Ahhh, maybe not. I do get lucky once in a while so I can't say I always have no luck. Just most of the time.

Nickname "natyvini25" is just more suited to the masculine gender. The avatar says almost nothing about who this player is. It all depends on the model of behavior at the table and most likely you are perceived. Everything can be.) Good luck.:)

I actually just thought today that would my opponents be more annoyed if they'd knew that I'm woman and kicked their asses. My previous life experience has shown that some of men are not good at losing to woman.

Natyvini25 not a pronounced nickname. as a player from Russia, he doesn't say anything to me.The only thing that catches Vinnie's eye. :) My friend got that name. after Winnie the Pooh. Honey loves.

And at all not pay attention. First look at the opponents style of play. And if she than something stands out strongly, only then on nickname. In tournaments on early stages at all difficult to perceive all and immediately. Only closer to the final table.

And in General it does not matter what and who thought. Play your game and win. Good luck to you and good luck at the tables!

Because most poker players are male.
Of all the things that can frustrate you on the table, this should be the least of your concerns.

Someone speaks at poker tables online? I mean I see it ocassionally but it's just so rare. Unless you're the speaker.

Oh and nobody cares if you're male or female but you. You're just another poker player at the table.

A simple way to avoid the confusion would be to replace the avatar with a picture of your genitals :)

In different countries, names are written in different ways, so it is very difficult to determine the gender of a player by a pseudonym, and the child’s father can also set the photo of his child as an avatar !!! Set your photo and maybe then they will believe you more)))

I think this is absolutely irrelevant because it in no way affects your skills, experience or game results. Do not pay attention to it.

If it really bothers you. On CardsChat you could go to your "Profile" and edit your "signature" To something like "I'm a girl" or "I am a female" or anything you like to announce your gender, and it would be at the bottom of every post you make.

Haha this is good.Yeah it annoys me too,but not enough to try fixing it,Sometimes i get stuck because he or him is the only thing that fits and it would seem more out of place saying her or she when you cant even remember what player 4 or 6s screen name was.Sooooo ive learnt to live with the fact that this situation exists in our universe and gotten over it.The alternative would be creating a new word,now wouldnt that be something.gl :)

I understand that it can be annoying
but at most poker tables, online or onsite, there are only guys
so thats the probable cause for the players thinking it is only guys playing ate table

With my name they cant tell if im female or male(i use a female avatar). By now im sure they know, at here at Cardchat. If you want them knowing announce it if they refer to you as a boy(guy). Me personally dont play people any different if they are a guy or girl. Im looking for what they are willing to play and from what position they will do it from.
Good luck at the tables!!

I have never heard the name naty, so I wouldn't know if it is a girls name or a boys. I would probably think of it being a male name just the fact that it ends in y and not ie, or just i.

Even though I have my name as EvertonGirl, a few times people have thought I was male, just because I have put girl in my name lol.

If they seen me right now, they would be saying that I was male, as I have just recently shaved my hair. The last time I shaved it in 2018 I did it very short, it was a grade 2 a buzz cut, this time around I did a grade 8 hehe.

I prefer to turn off the chat during the game. Communication can't concentrate on the game. Everyone at the table is your opponent. Why should you care what they think? Select their chips and celebrate the victory. Everything you need at the game table.
