All is fair in love, war and poker. As long as the insults don’t get to the point of being racist, sexist, etc I got no problem with it. If you can get your opponents frustrated then you are ahead. You can always block chat online if it disturbs you.

I often do not pay attention to what others say, I have my own position and goal in the game.

I also think it is ugly to curse, but when I see it I already curse, it is not really intended to make me tilt but rather it is a symptom of my own tilt.

In poker, all means are good for winning. Where there is a game for money, there is no place for gentlemen. But this is my opinion)

I want to curse the players that run out their time bank every hand in the freeroll tournaments. I don't think it improves chance to cash.

it is going to happen specially live and there is not much you can do it is part of the game. so I learn to play a bit better because of that and I let my playing do the talking. you can always put on head phones on and not really listen to any music or nothing just so people wont talk to you and there has been times when I get information because they think I cant hear the table talk. also ignore them act like they don't exist in this world. this life is too short to worry about people like that and give them any attention.

Poker is a game that uses the mind too much, so for sure many will try to destabilize the opponent psychologically. Playing online helps a lot.

If they feel the need to call you a fish ect, then that means you are frustrating them, and they need to resort to name calling to feel better about why you stacked them the hand before.

I take it as a compliment :) .

I also don’t like this attitude. I prefer to block the chat and ignore everything that other players say.

Good afternoon.I totally agree with you mate.Ther is no reason to be rude with your opponents,no matter if your playing for real money or a freeroll.If you can´t stand that, just close the chat box.Then, you can focus your mind on what really matters....your game.

Respect above all things. Main rule of online poker because probably live you would not do the same, such as insulting or throwing things

Some of the best players in the world are real asses. I wonder why that is?

Hello! I completely agree with you, you need to play correctly, respecting each other. If you have been moved, this does not mean that your opponent is a fish, sometimes you have to look at your game, maybe you are the fish yourself?

The poker rooms seem to be enabling/playing into this type of behavior with the "throwables" such as a box of tissues, pile of dung, dancing donkey lol

All if fair in love and war. That being said being a ass in poker is not needed. People really need to be more respectful of each other. Sadly it does happen on and off the tables anymore. I normally just keep the chat off.

Everyone must learn how to block out and not allow things to influence there mindset, decision making, strategy or game play.

I agree with you. I generally think that any insulting remarks at the table are unacceptable. In any case, I recommend that you do not pay attention to the statements of your opponents, but rather focus on your own game.

I agree with your opinion. Whoever uses this strategy is also harmed.

I share what you say

I share what you say, but since poker is a mental competition, it is natural that opponents try by all means to deconcentrate the other in order to win. Greetings

Yes, I don't understand the need to berate others. Drag chips quietly, it is not that hard. It all boils down to "don't be a jerk, phil"
