If I had known that my bluff would have such a negative effect on my opponent, I would have definitely shown him my cards and I would not without reason consider it a completely fair game. I'm just a poker player, and I'm not a psychotherapist, I'm not a priest, and even more so I'm not a saint :)

No I won't put anyone intentionally, but if I can get some luck on the river (like 3-4 times against the same players), he will definitely tilt on his one... but most of the time the tables are turned and I am the one that is getting tilted since I'm not that lucky.

Yes, specialy when someone calls you all the time with any hand even you raise with a premium, and he win the pot.

I took a deep breath and I start planning how to get him out of the game

This kind of player who plays with no RANGE yes I want to put them on Tilt

A very honorable view.

But there are tons of people in our world that are able to have pleasure to see other people suffer in pain.
Also, a lot of people are working on the goal to see others suffer in pain.
It seems to be some kind of wealth and satisfaction for them.
Sorry to say that, but the world is not only nice and peaceful, despite the wish for world peace.
Even our nearest relatives the primates have those social and ranking structures and fights.
One saying in Germany: “Life is not a pony farm!”
Poker is like all human activities a mirror of life and society and all circumstances.
So additional I quote myself to answer the original question,
blaming myself to be not correct in terms of the thread topic.
I don't work actively on bringing others on tilt,
but it happens easily if you have a series of good cards and boards against the same player in a tournament.
Poker cards are not fair, they fall as they do and the best hand wins.

Its all allowed in poker nothing wrong about that. If Im able to take advantage of someone mentally within the game of poker Im sure as heck that I will use that advantage. Now if its maybe a good friend of mine, I probably wouldnt do that, I wouldnt want him to get upseet.

Yes, but only if they deserve it. :eek: Also, I would do it in quite the subtle fashion, like compliment them on folding, and then adding a thank goodness/whew! I would never show a bluff unless I were heads-up without any other players.

Do you show him your bluff? Is it fair play to take actions that tilt other players?
I think this would work better in live poker, but my answer is yes, why not take advantage of my opponent's weakness and take advantage of it, if I know he's going to go on tilt, after all, a game is a game.

But I would do it intelligently, so as not to break any rules, but I would make a point of showing my bluff, especially when the player is very aggressive and likes to get involved in many hands and knowing that he will be dying to catch me, I would set up another trap, to take the rest of your chips.😁

I'm learning a lot this final of the year with the increase of freerolls on WPT and playing more tourneys at the same time also with the same players. For example on WPT you cannot use throwablows but you can feel when a player is irritated by you. And confirm that when the player is on your table a the same time on PP. 😂 and he knows that and he starts sending you a lot of throwablows. It's really funny. And the answer is.
-Yes of course... I always look the reaction and try to use my playing to get the opponent in a bad situation.

I like to use some metagame sometimes. Let the opponent think is dominating to set a big trap later. And I really like angry villains. They always want a revenge, and make serious mistakes trying it. It's easy to do this with certain people.

For me it depends on the situation. As a rule, poker should be a game of relaxation and pleasure, not the wild west. While there may be value in deliberately trying to put a player on tilt, most times I wouldn't do it. It happens that some poker players have a damaged ego and are megalomaniacs, poseurs and like to make fun of themselves at someone else's expense. Such players are very irritating from the very beginning. In such a case, in order to mitigate their ego as a certain response, I would try to introduce such a player to a big tilt as a form of life learn.

In my opinion to observe and take advantage of an other players weakness is part of the game,I would put that player on tilt and maybe the player will learn to work on reducing his tilt manners.

As a rule I never reveal my cards. However, it is a perfectly legitimate strategy though.

For certain players tilt can be detrimental, if they are unable to maintain proper mindstate they are ripe for the picking. Intentionally tilting someone isn’t my goal, but if it happens i will do my best to benefit.

Very nice answer, there are some maniacs who mainly underestimate others and overbluff parties. This is a very great solution what you gave against them. :)

Tilt equity is undervalued.

This is one of the reasons I prefer to play on Reg Tables as opposed to Fast Fold tables even though I find Zoom much more fun.

If I'm able to stack another player and it puts him on tilt, I want to be able to play the next hand with him, and the next one and the next one (cards being good enough of course)

NO......
I don't show any cards unless I have to showdown.
If I want to tilt someone, usually a slow play/ check raise will work.

I simply believe that players who do not use such a situation to their advantage simply do not deserve to win. Such players should probably find another hobby. The weakness of our opponent is our advantage and it should always be used as effectively as possible.

In my view, totally acceptable, it's a tactic, the adversary who would have to prepare his mind better. As they say here in my country, you noticed that there are no teeth, hot popcorn! Kkk

if it involves me showing my hand to put him on tilt then I wouldn't. Can't give away that valuable information

Of course, it is better to lean on others because it is an advantage for you to be completely fair in a tournament.
