why do guys that play well and winning players have to keep repeatedly violating the chat facility, to tilt opponents???

    lol, just annoys me that people that obviously dont need that kind of edge have to do it.........i guess its a reflection on todays society..................and i shouldnt let it tilt me tbh......................class and manners maketh the man......or woman................especially when going deep in the main event.........but hey-ho, I guess poker is still a game played in the gutter lol

    I'm with Jaeger here, I was brought up to respect people.

    Banter is fine if you know the other person well enough and it's light hearted, but I will never use the chat to get under somebodies skin.

    trying to tilt players in the chat box is fine imo, up to you if it effects you, ignore em and play your own game, as long as nothing personal is written then anything else is fine, freedom of speech and all that!

    i wouldn't do it against a forum reg that i play a lot but against some random unknown then why not? if they make an awful call etc.....tell them, it's not a team game, if what i say makes them tilt then thats good

    why do guys that play well and winning players have to keep repeatedly violating the chat facility, to tilt opponents??? for example , a guy thats running well lately that maybe flows from New Zealand???

    SIMPLE play on MINI view,

    also if he does tilt you then he has succeeded,so you are failing into his trap....

    don't even need to play in mini just turn chat off.

    I personally have no respect for these players, most i don't think they do it purposely to tilt people but just to act with there massive ego that they most likely have. Occasionally i say TY when winning a big pot but only if i know the guy on a respected level.

    Ok i can see your side of view here, but surely as everyones getting better at NLH you have to take any edge you can get? they arent being unfair or what not but if you think you can easily tilt someone why not?

    I would do it live vs random or online it doesn't make a difference anything to get easier money/chips, its not disrespectful its part of the game IMO

    As DJ/Tobes pointed out we're not children if you get tilted learn to deal with it

    ............................................+1

    Look everyone,...........once you lose any respect for fellow players and etiquette goes out the window, you really are taking out the fun side of playing and once the fun has gone, I for one will be damned or keen to jump back on a table.

    Trying to get an edge on someone by being abusive on here is not the way to go........get an edge by fairer means.
    One of the major reasons people join up on here is for the community spirit, lets not destroy it....keep it civil and fun.........rant over......have a gd day.

    I hate TY from winner of big pot, winds me up a treat. Sometimes the simpliest rub down is the most effective

    I think basically, there are 2 schools of thought on this

    1. Play with respect, class and dignity

    2. Do anything to try get an edge ( perhaps not having enough faith in one's own game?)


    I think billyboots summed it up perfectly

    And Yup, we're not children..............so why behave like one????

    Good luck all at the tables, if i aint chatty its coz chat is off

    Hi Young Gun, I understand where you are coming from, but I disagree pretty strongly with this point of view.

    If you think putting any time  / effort into falling out with people in chatboxes is going to gain you 'an edge' then GL with that.

    As for  doing it live..... why would you want to go to all of  the effort to play a live  game of poker, and then start having spats with people across the table.
    Live poker is pretty slow, but this is compensated for by the opportunity to have a bit of banter with a group of like minded people. 

    And  you are right, we are not children..... hence why we shouldn't be having petty arguments over a game of cards.

    NOT THE CASE IN MY EXPERIENCE

    Im laid back and dont take much notice normally but have reported 1 player only because they passed the mark big time to me and fellow players i contacted live help copied and pasted the convo gave times ,tables , hands everything and this player still continues to roam the tables with foul mouth 3 months on so i gave up

    Lol i dont mean falling out with people live or online i mean putting someone on tilt it doesn't mean the same thing in my books

    in a live game if you think you can tilt someone would you not do it? its not a strong opinion of mine tbf and i used to do it dont think ive done of late but its not personall or fall out with people over it just little things you can do to make the game easier :P

    tilting somone is not the same as being rude or offensive. there are many many things you can put in a chat box that can tilt people, even showing a few bluffs is anough to send some people over the edge. if i can tilt someone then so be it but resorting to personal attacks is soooooo uncouth!
