Poker Discussion Post

rivercats:

 a bad call and a suck out is tolerable to an extent. but when they play a hand so badly and then get lucky they need to be called out

 There are people in the sit n go's who have no concept for equity/ sitngo strategy etc. When they call you down with AQ vs AK in the early blinds and catch their Q, or call a 3 bet shove w AK against AA and get their miracle. fuck them

 I agree with OP. Normally I just go with the "nh" and I spose sometimes they will believe it when their gutty got there. Every now and then if I can throw a few words their way that will actually make them think they made a good play, I will. Whatever solidifies their line of thinking as "good poker", so be it. I look at it as investing in the future.

 My latest is "You are a genius!  turn pro now!"

 Here's an idea.... Don't say anything at all. Turn the chat right off if you can't control yourself. All of these stupid comments make you all look like pathetic poor sports.

I think it has to be said that a lot of the micro level people who refuse to fold are just playing for fun, and just feel like gambling.  When you call them out in the chat, you are just adding to their fun because they don't really care what you think of their play.

Adam:

Why, exactly?  To what end?

never talk smack at a poker table.

It just encourages them to play better.

They paid the buy in, they are entitled to play anyway they like.

 Just say 'nh' and move on. I've gotten sucked out on a million times before, and will will get sucked out on billions of times in the future, but that's why poker is profitable. The worse plays that I see, the better the games are that I'm playing in... I love seeing awful plays.

I've been running like dogshit recently, and all I've been saying to help me not tilt like crazy is "great play, or nice call." It's really funny to see what kind of response you get and helps me laugh off my misfortunes.

Mindthis:

"Nice call... unlucky." - if he puts his money in bad and doesn't hit.
"Nice call... unlucky I had a hand / I wasn't bluffing." - if he makes a bad call at the showdown.
"Nice call... always trust that gut instinct ;)" - if he puts his money in bad and hits. 

 The funny thing is people who make these kind of posts and call other players "donkeys" are pretty awful losing players them selves.  This is just a way for you to blind your own bad play for your self and blame it on others.  Pretty pathetic if you ask me.  You try to sound like you some poker guru yet 90% of the time your just one of them.
