Hello everyone.
No i don't care about this. It's just a word and often it doesn't mean anything.

It would be interesting to create statistics and find out if the same nicknames always reach good places
I emphasize nicknames because we don't know what they really are
If you think that the screen name somehow affects the performance of the player, then you are definitely wrong. The main thing is skills, experience and, of course, luck, and the screen name or avatar does not affect anything at all.

I usually remember some nicknames so that when I play against that player again I remember how he plays

Some nicknames I keep in my mind instinctively, by the way they play.

for sure, mainly because the players generally have the same nickname on all platforms

nah nicknames or handles dont mean a thing... what does though, is paying attention how people play and taking notes on them. otherwise you are just playing the lottery every hand you play. if thats your thing, go for it, but you could have a lot more information if you choose to take notes.

Screen names cannot affect player performance. It is obvious. Those who pay attention to such trifles simply do not take the game seriously.

I like looking at the nicknames, many I can't even translate and others I laugh out loud 🤪

Always. Sometimes it's entertaining, others it might reveal info on the player.

I don't but I was watching a high level player yesterday saying they sometimes do at 100NL, 200NL etc.

If they never saw them play before and had a stupid name they were more inclined to think it was a recreational player than a reg. I think in the video I was watching he was in a hand with a player called pokerbody69 and he thought it was likely a recreational. He could soon tell anyway from watching his game, bet sizing, common mistakes etc.

Only in one tournament can I follow a player I ran into at the same table whose performance drew attention.

Yes, but only during the tournament. Then I forget because it is unnecessary for me. Each player can change their playing style at any time, so for me the only thing that matters is their behavior in a given tournament.

A player's nickname can give a lot of information to how they play.

Think of Durrrr, he made the name to tilt people so you should always consider how your opponent plays.

Unless it's bot LOL
