I have a question for them, if the fish has won almost all his chips, at what level Losers? :D

'it depends'

One player winning almost all of another's chips is no indication that this player is better (or at a higher level) than the other. I mean a player could Limp/Call out of position with 42o, & then proceed to call large bets w/o implied odds but then fluke out & hit as a 10-to-1 dog. It doesn't put them on a higher level (quite the contrary) :p


OP, as I'm sure you're already doing, weigh out all of your good/positive experiences from playing the CC games 'vs.' the negative ones. I'd think the decision is easy. (playing CC games = +ev,... & not just $ev or cEV).

Good luck in the next game(s) & more importantly, good luck in the next hand(s) you play vs. the name caller ;)

Someone on bovada once threatened to r*pe and murder my mother. I reported them immediately, and actually played against them again several hours later. I wonder if anything was even done about it.

Since it was at Bovada it may have been a different player No 362 than the first player No 362. ;)

I usually have everyone on mute whenever I play, I tend to get irritated fast and it disturbs my playing style. Well that's the way I deal with it. So everyone who think I'm ignoring you, I'm not intentionally. Sorry , but I think it's an edge for me to focus.

It was HUSNG. Not sure why you're assuming it was a tournament when there are several other gametypes.

Another way to annoy them back, in a nice way is to use the chuckle (^^) smiley . It probably makes them even more aggressive and mean towards you but keep your head cool and bust hem out ;-)

Some players just find joy in calling names. Just pay no attention to them. I once had a player called my shove on flop with his gutshot and backdoor flush draw. He hit a runner runner flush. I had 97s top 2 pair on a rainbow flop. he laughed at me and said I was a stupid idiot for playing 97 when the fact of the matter is he just got lucky.

OK my apologies, I shouldn't assume, you probably know how the rest goes, but now we know it's HUSNG we can substitute 1 or 2 for 362.

My point is how did you know it was the same player later that day when Bovada use an anonymous player name system.

:confused:

Sorry to hear that Dick Tracy. I can feel you pain on that one. No one has every said something like that to me, but I have seen things like that said to other players. I don't tilt much, but I will if something like that is said to me. And you know what? There are even people like that who play live poker, and if you think about it, it might not be safe walking out of a casino after taking out some players. Thanks guys/gals for keeping this going, because mine was very miner. But it does get real serious sometimes.

No problem, PapaC. I didn't let it bother me. I was more or less "telling on him" so he would get banned. lol

Him threatening to rape and murder my mother again was a dead giveaway.

One guy chastised me for limping and called me a fish just a while ago in the CC pokerstars freeroll. Can I report that?

I've always had the opinion if a player abuses me then I'm doing something right. Shouldn't happen in a CC game though.

Players only do that to tilt you - by quitting you let them win.

In most cases like this the ones doing the smack talk are the bad players.

oh I don't know about that debi......phil hellmuth? :D

just turn chat off papa if it bothers you...or you could always just laugh at it and accept it for what it is.....just words man...

keep playing the cc games if you can and don't let anyone interrupt the peace...no matter what they say....after all, its the people who say 'bad' things that are hurting themselves....maybe have some compassion instead of thinking about yourself and how you falsely perceive it.......the bigger picture

aye or no? ;)

Now I really don't know why it hit me like it did. I'm thinking, he needs to call himself a fish because I got most of his chips. Ain't the loser the fish? LOL. I don't know what a donk is either. They don't teach you those things in any books I've read, or told me in any of my post what those things mean. I'm just a dumb country boy, and the fish I catch always went to mama's frying pan, and some of our donks would kick the shit out of you. So that all I know about it. GL you all LOL

it is rather important, because if you never started the thread then you would have taken your mindframe into future games without questioning the problem...

and the problem isn't the guy who called you a fish.....the problem is within yourself
