When I first started playing occasionally I would get some verbal abuse, especially online, but that seldom happens now. I think I've played long enough that I don't have someone calling me out for playing 28 offsuit from under the gun and hitting a fullhouse on the flop. Since I play a TAG style and don't play just about anything I think the players that I am up against respect my game versus the luckbox's who play anything. I still see verbal abuse now and then but it's always directed toward someone else. As it is I just ignore it although I will read it. I use to block all chat but that I found it helpful to keep the chat on so that I could actually see who was going on tilt and then I would try and target that player.
