    Er, I think that FlutNush realised that it was a joke.
    That is why he penned a comic masterpiece in reply.
    You could learn a lot from him. :-)

    I think you can thank such online CHAVS as Luke Schwartz for a steady increase in such abuse. Of course through the like of Hellmuth and others Poker Insults have always been banded around but people are using them to try and tilt other players and put them off their game.

    The couple who had their daughter watching the screen and blamed you for the other guy swearing???? either the other guy is a friend of theirs and thus all becomes your fault or i fear for their child. If they truly do blame you then they sound idiotic. The child is probably in danger if these people are ever allowed to operate kitchen utensils or drive cars. Care in the community programs should monitor what their clients are doing on a night

    It's quite alright Benny, I wasn't being entirely serious myself. For the avoidance of doubt: I do not steal car hub caps or burgle houses.

    We all good with that? To prove it... here it comes... wait for it...

    ;) lol, etc.

    I think that clears everything up nicely. Now, who wants to start another feisty thread about James Hartigan? Anyone?

    Mr. Hartigan is probably going to get that printed on some t-shirts (once he's corrected your grammar).
    You should copyright it quickly - you could make a mint.

    LOL Luke Schartz the online chav? Thats one player who doesnt confuse ambition and ability and I suspect he has never abused you in a chat box!

    i think you should complain even if it doesnt bother you,he will just do it again otherwise and it could be to someone who is offended.You can take the first step in making sure that doesnt happen...

    ...i'm starting to sound like an RSPCA sdvert.

         I reported table abuse to Sky on 2 seperate times and they stopped them using the chat box, So if you dont report them you must but up with the abuse, because they wont stop it unless you" DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT"

    OK Genius let me explain it then. I meant you can thank him for promoting trash talk in the game between new 20 somethings who enter thinking it's all about big 3 bets and acting abusive to people at the table. Did i say he trashed me? no i didn't. His trash talk is as moronic as his dress sense.

    Ok genius? Ewwww you trash talking now..... You talk like a jim henson creation - in my opinion.

    Quote from Luke when asked about his chat -

    Does your chat give you an edge?

    No, not really. I do it to get under people’s skin because I enjoy getting under people’s skin, not because it gives me an edge. I’m talking about people I don’t like. I wouldn’t do it to your average player who just seems like a nice guy. I wouldn’t antagonise anybody for no reason, but anyone who seems a bit obnoxious – like durrrr – I just give it what I feel.

    Obviously your a fan, keep railing him and enjoy. But it doesn't change the fact that his chat streams are fed into forums where people think the game should be played in this spirt. The original post said "PEOPLE USE IT TO TILT PLAYERS AND PUT THEM OFF THEIR GAME" if you look back. There are plenty of examples of him using his digs to try and goad people into reloading when their sessions over or to abuse outdraws etc. Does he use it to his advantage..... .Yes, and he's good at it, but soem people are good at card sharping.... does that make it right?. The guy is marmite so if your on the side that loves him than fair enough. Im very much on the other

    I personally like a bit of "friendly banter" at the table, if you can get one or two people talking rubbish to you then they are not focusing on the game they are playing. However you do get some morons who like to bring your mother into it or start using obscene swear words bypassing the swear word filter by adding ...... between letters.

    It amazes me how much effort these pillocks put in to actually being able to put these words into chat!!

    If you get beaten by a bad beat then so be it, thats poker, let them know they are a very lucky boy/girl and give them a "nh" or whatever.

    No need to get personal about it, slate the dealer, not the player :oD

    The language at the tables of this player ..calling me a C---  and T---   in the 1500 BH   .. 

    Would they do it live to my face .. I dont think so ............
    And you blamed that on a pro player.  No connection there as far I see.

    But I agree he is like marmite, so was Muhammad Ali, but his trash talking is no more to blame than Schwartz's for someone calling bennydip2 names.

    Limiting chat to active players (when your out your mute) would cut a lot of the name calling.

                Iv come to the conclusion that you pay your money and can play whatever cards you wish from AA to 7 2 for people who like to play rubbish hands hoping to hit good luck  (im sure youve herd the term "dont tap the fish tank") , as for the 12 year old i would have no qualms letting my daughter/son watch me as I can educate them regarding gambling (who knows they may be the next Annie duke) as for the swearing I cant abide it and always report them but you can always just turn off the chat.

    That made me laugh lol

    These days a 12 year old is more likely to pull out a flick-knife and stab the screen! lol
