Trash talking

[CXRH]

I personally don't trash talk in chat or have chat on but I normally sit and watch for a few hands, see how people play, sometimes if I do have chat on I'll say something as simple as "lol" in the chat after watching someone attempt to bluff, it's the little things that get into people's heads, make them ruminate and blunder their money away. That's just me though and im pretty messed up.

Do not pay attention. Play your game.

You can take their poker name and report them and hope the site
will deal with them.

This is human nature, not every one of us knows about the rules of behavior.

Don't be so sensitive, the important thing is that you took his chips, if you got them playing well, you'll get much more in the long run, if you got them just by luck, and he knows how to exploit that, you'll soon return with interest.

 

[YenRodriguez]

frustrated people who don't know how to lose.
those people make me laugh

Keeping an eye on the chat can be +EV imo. People who go off in chat tend to be weaker players. You should take a note.

I cant stand trash talk man. Those who have to talk trash have as much class as a dead fly on a steaming pile. Its just not a good look man. Show some respect at the table always. Thats just my belief

 

[fernandofcp]

Chat is expendable. It's not worth wasting time with chat. Contempt.

 

[Rahatis]

Because they are tilted or don't have some basic poker knowledge. Usually. So tag them as pros and move on.

I think it's the whole online thing. People feel anonymous so in their little minds anything goes when online.

The bigger question might be,,, Why do you put so much value toward a random stranger? :deal:

Very good question!

 

[pwalker4201977]

I only talk trash if someone starts it with me. I normally don’t talk trash cause it’s not the way you play live. I only see it online

 

[TerryBLE]

It means you're on the right track, pay attention to the game.

I never pay attention to the nonsense that offended fish write !!!

why is it so many players want to trash talk you, when you draw out on them. they will cuss you out and everything else. at americas cardroom they try to control it. but some will do it anyway.

I think that some may be blowhards, or trolls like you see on social media, may be trying to shake you and make you not concentrate on the game, or who knows what else might possess someone to do it.

I ignore them, even the person who called me the "C" word was ignored. I have however reported other players twice for things they said either to or directed it towards someone else at the table. One time it was when there was a player from Israel at the table and a player said numerous times that Hitler had the right idea, and things along those lines. The other time was when a player used a racial slur.

 

[Emily Trott]

You cant change their nature... some people are focused on the game, other just are what they are.

You're right. You can't blame a skunk for being a skunk.

Your use of nature reminded me of this story told by one of the characters in The Crying Game.

"A scorpion asks a frog to carry him over a river. The frog is afraid of being stung, but the scorpion argues that if it did so, both would sink and the scorpion would drown. The frog then agrees, but midway across the river the scorpion does indeed sting the frog, dooming them both. When asked why, the scorpion points out that this is its nature."

No reason to trash talk , just move on to the next hand after a bad beat or whatsoever . Report him if he offends you very much , or else do not pay attention

 

[EvertonGirl]

As soon as I see the trash talking, I will either set note to fun player or moaner.

Fun player is the one I obviously use when I haven't seen the player before. The moaner more than likely is a bad reg, as they know the fundamentals just can't get over their ego's to accept they got beat by the fish. They have to cry and tell a person how bad they play, I mean why would you tell someone they play bad, it doesn't make any sense, you would use the information to beat them!!!!

 

[kasinogyn]

when they do this with me I print a screen and send it to support. I find this inadmissible.

 

[skalibur]

really

why is it so many players want to trash talk you, when you draw out on them. they will cuss you out and everything else. at americas cardroom they try to control it. but some will do it anyway.

unfortunately in the middle of the game to several players who offend others to try to take the concentration of players off the table so they can win hands leaving you tilted I don't care if any player has been talking nonsense to me, I leave it alone and I don't answer so as not to take the concentration

 

[alien666dj]

Players who blame others for their losses simply cannot realize that they are the problem. In the absence of a desire to correct their own mistakes.

 

[tihomalko]

So if you go aggro all the time or all in of course they will trash talk

 

[MrrrRock]

i am amazed of myself sometimes in the chat - im very very very rough - i combine players nation and history + his family tree and any other nasty things my imagination can create


only when im losing
but im losing almost all of the time
