Time to look really bad on TV tonight......... "As far as asking for chip counts constantly, it something I do occasionally (not nearly that much on the regular), but I had found out earlier in the tournament that it was bothering other players (specifically Shane and Mike) so decided to just keep doing it to try and tilt them." Meh, this is the second time I feel like you have presented something as a purposeful tactic to tilt or gain information from your opponents, but it was really just a byproduct of nerves or inexperience. The other instance was the time you made Danny Wong show. Both are examples of unnecessary and ... Posted in: Poker Discussion |

Can you guys stop acting like dicks after losing a hand, etc? " what about the classic kjldfthewkjlhewkjlthklewhgEKJLD'" There you go--an example of something I might find annoying and/or immature, but it's playful and doesn't create a negative environment, so I don't consider it harmful in the way that being outwardly nasty is.

Can you guys stop acting like dicks after losing a hand, etc? Well, I'm assuming this is from 3-4 years ago, probably from a time before I considered myself a "pro," but I still don't remember ever getting "ugly" on anybody in chat, ever. If you could find a chat transcript from Stars to support your claim, or even another player who could accuse me of berating them, I'd happily admit to being an asshole. I suppose I'll have to live with your accusation in the meantime. In any case, pretty funny to hold a grudge for all this time. Posted in: Poker Discussion |

Can you guys stop acting like dicks after losing a hand, etc? I'm not taking it personally, I'm taking it professionally. I wasn't in the hand, nor was the person I was sweating. Criticizing opponents--doing anything other than making poker a light, fun environemnt for random people--is bad for business, and I think a lot of pros have forgotten that. It's also so routine for professional MTT players to take beats for large amounts of equity, that I believe it's a basic discipline to be able to refrain from making snide comments in reaction.

Can you guys stop acting like dicks after losing a hand, etc? Mman, imo they're both similarly bad if they make people have less fun or feel more weird and uncomfortable about playing poker, or if it causes the tone of the game to become more serious. Since people can't police themselves, the WSOP has now instituted rules about that kind of behavior. Posted in: Poker Discussion |

F david williams,Nenad seemed nice but JFC I never said PBDrunks came on here and made up "a completely false story," what I'm saying is that there is ALWAYS more to the story, especially when there is alcohol and a nightclub involved. As much as you can't imagine PB's (rather vague) version of the story being untrue, I can't imagine Nenad having this reaction to a few spillt drops of alcohol. That's the premise of the OP, and I refuse to take it at face value. Whether warranted or not, whether it was a matter of perception or not, and whether Josh is even AWARE of it or not, Josh most likely did something more than he described to ...

WTF hand against Shaniac. Thoughts? I was on super monkey tilt for all these hands and fwiw I was pushing any 2, I just happened to wake up with QQ. For everyone else, I'm pretty sure after my comment I said, "sorry tho, gg" or something. But, whatever, "hypocrite asshole" woks, too. Posted in: Poker Discussion |

Can you guys stop acting like dicks after losing a hand, etc? Bill and Gboro and everyone, I really only called out Jcamby because I thought he would take it the right way, and it wouldn't spin out into some extra drama, and we could just discuss the issue...also, just because the bubble of a big FT is logically the sort of place where a comment from a top pro would stand out to the general public. Again, I only used JCamby as an example because I respect him as a person and think he's the sort of dude that should set an example for people like Sheets. Posted in: Poker Discussion |

F david williams,Nenad seemed nice but JFC Regardless of what happened in the club, most of these responses demonstrate a clique-ish, dumb-ass frat-boy mentality that is pretty gross. First of all, let me say that I know David Williams pretty well (we're not close friends, but we have hung out in a variety of situations, and I like him), I'm acquainted with Josh (who has always seemed mellow and cool, but almost all my encounters were at the poker table), and I don't really know Nenad at all, but we have a lot of mutual friends. NONE of that matters, when I consider the fact that most of your reactions are taking an account at face ... Posted in: Poker Discussion |

Can you guys stop acting like dicks after losing a hand, etc? Ok, I apologize if you really think I am dragging Camby's good name through the mud. I will say, fwiw, that it's more jarring for me to see a nice, usually polite pro like Camby say something terse like "wp moron" than it is when some random donk spazzes out after i bust him and wishes death and disease on me or whatever.

Can you guys stop acting like dicks after losing a hand, etc? As Martine23 said (and I tried to make clear in my OP), I used JCamby because he's a mature and responsible person, and I didn't think he would interpret my post as a personal attack. I guess everyone else interpreted it as a personal attack against Camby, so, I'm sorry. Also, it's by virtue of the fact that JCamby is a really nice, respectable pro that it stands out so much more distinctly when he says "Wp moron" or whatever, and it is more jarring than if a Random says it. Point is, if you're a nice guy for 10,000 hands and act like a jerk on the 10,001st hand, that's the one that will ... Posted in: Poker Discussion |

Can you guys stop acting like dicks after losing a hand, etc? AGame, I can't tell if you're "levelling" me or not, but you're definitely not thinking clearly from a long-term perspective. For starters, your premise that "bad players will always be bad" is about as wrong as it gets. Posted in: Poker Discussion |

Can you guys stop acting like dicks after losing a hand, etc? P0KERPR0: well played moron (said to someone who beat him with a worse hand near the final table of the FTP 163. I won't replicate the hand he was reacting to, because the comment is innaproriate regardless of the quality of the hand). Basically, I'm calling out JCamby because I respect him well enough to know that he should know better than to ever say anything like this, but I see a ton of "respected" players who don't have the restraint or discipline to refrain from these types of comments. Mostly, the trend nowadays is just to sarcastically say "wp" or mention something about your ... Posted in: Poker Discussion |

these live pros are just too good MattG, Waco, why you guys so sensitive' It sounds like Matt was in a tough spot and possibly made a mistake on the river. His analysis is flawed because all the hands he thinks are unlikely are at least somewhat likely. (The frustrated 2K throw-in is a MASSIVE mistake, but we'll omit that for now). In any case, don't get all defensive when "random donks" question you expert play. Posted in: Bad Beats |

I apologize..... *Shane, What I have distilled from your posts is that P5's and the rankings are bullshit because someone like Pete is ranked higher than you. The rest seems to be just intellectual camo, P5's IS "the rankings" and "the look at me"* I'm amazed you are able to "distill" anything with what appears to be a total lack of reading comprehension. Seriously, did you even read our posts, or do you merely assume that everyone who posts here is as disingenuous as you' Posted in: Poker Discussion |
