Online, I don't say anything, as some don't speak English and I know they want to socialize too. Learning how to play the game for the first time is one thing, but sharing information is cheating.

But live, while I'm in a hand, I have said English only please, as in the past players have table talked about what hands they folded, etc., in their own languages, (Japanese Russian, Chinese, etc) during the hand. Its hard to enforce English only at the tables here in Korea, as sometimes none of them speak English at all.

One time in a trny, the table chipleader was always having a conversation with her Mongolian boyfriend who was standing next to her. Come to find out, he's telling her what to do, but not only that he was caught looking at the other players cards at the table. I told the dealer, and he was told to move away, no wonder she was the chip leader!

i wonder if you could ask your dealer to share any information that is revealed in korean with you in english?


but yeah, online, if youre really suspicious, you can copy paste the chat into google translate.

As far as I know all rooms are allowed to communicate only in English. During the game I don't pay attention to chat.

English is the only language allowed in the chat box according to most poker site policy.Also not all words can be translated properly using Google Translate.My suggestion is to capture a screenshot and paste it in this thread so all our CC members could help to translate,even if it happened in the CC freeroll.

Have you ever notice some player help another at the game?would you do that? Have ever been rude on the game and for what raison?

It is forbidden in poker rooms, only english is allowed. If you see such things, after warnings you can report it to the room since players cant help each other (or playing against others) by discussing cards. OFC I talk about big tournaments or cash games, not private tourneys.

Firstly there ar more sorts of tournaments then u think i see i can prove u with screens thath not only eng language is avaible there Private tournaments there countries torurnaments and manymany more thaths why usually there is info at tournament lobby like "At this tournament chat is avaible only ....Eng" if it would be for all Tournaments, i think there would be message upon the chat only engilsh avaible.

Once a tournament player from Kazakhstan before going all in told me that he had AA :)

That is not fair to other players,also for you in that moment it was good,but next time there will be 2 players who are from other country and they will talk about AA.

Perhaps you need to be careful every time you press that keyboard because somebody might misunderstood what the hell are you trying say.Stop making clever remark if you cannot afford to because it could easily be misleading.Btw English is only my second language.Perhaps I can challenge you to speak in my own language?

Sometimes these types of players hampers and much, making the person lose concentration may lose up to a beautiful pot, but I usually tend to mutate them.

I know that it's basically against the rules but I usually just ignore them. Even if i told them to speak english or sth, they'd happily ignore me. I've seen people trying to tell others they should speak English to no avail. Some tourneys however can have exceptions and you don't have to speak only English

I have trash talked at table, usually on a losing streak or unfortunate beats. I think the best way to react is ignore and inform player that you have blocked their chat. I have been rude as well, and it is wrong for me to do so. Best line I ever heard was blame the game, not the player. I have been chastised for my rudeness, which was the correct thing to do.

I think that language rules should be followed. I hate it when someone talks about action in a language other than table standard. If they want to use their own language, play on appropriate language tables

I wish they would monitor the language more often in these games. Poker stars does have warnings sometimes that only english can be used. Players don't adhere to those rules, and think it is unfair.

Pokerstars may have English only message, but unless they say it in several languages, a foreign player may not know how to read English.

they need to be banned from the table period, poker is about socializing and having fun with one another.
