something that i've found to be very effective (not 100% though) is to say something like, "its good to know you play well" which instantly puts the focus on the heckler's play who in turn becomes self-concious about every decision for the next few hands, and in fact will often quit. This is good in the long run because you lose the players that hassle people about bad plays.

...it wasn't even an awful play by his part, just overly aggressive. then I type stuff like that which I'm not proud of and exactly gives off the wrong image I want to project and hurts the feelings of someone I want to play with me more.

Yeah, don't do that... If someone starts with you, by all means, take it to them. But to start in on someone when they're obviously an idiot, is what's really retarded, and I'm afraid shows a lack of table maturity...

I feel somehow when events like these occur that I have not only let myself down, but you as well junk. For what its worth, I apologize (only because I think somehow this comment in that hand will spark a chain of hateful events that ends up getting you drafted and a bullet in the rear--although the purple heart looks good on you).

Deadmoney,

You are forgiven this time...

Your "you guys are the zits of online poker" was a classic at the TLK/Ivy table...

I love yelling at bad players. The therapeutic effects far outweigh any skill increase from the fish (not that I think that even happens). Hell, sometimes I turn my chat off and keep yelling at them. It's awesome. If my chat were banned, I'd still type stuff into the chat box and hit Enter.

I expect to win every time I play, and poker is a game unlike almost any other, where you can lose even if the skill gap is extremely large. That calls for some yelling!

my roommate does that too and he's averaging $55/hr nowadays. I think there is a marginal difference that hinders your profits slightly by berrating opponents for bad play. These setbacks are offset slightly anytime you can get an opponent to tilt off chips, but in my experience you scare out "deadmoney" in the pots more often than you rake them.

Finally got around to watching one of the ipod promos from Live at the Bike.

Some local business man was sitting down to the 20/40 nl game while trying to cut a deal on his cell phone. He threw some chips in the pot (calling a raise) while talking, clearly unaware of the action, then got his hand folded and taken off the table by the floor person until he finished his call.

There was some discussion as to whether business guy even knew what was going on and a couple of players, including the one who actually won the pot, told the dealer to give business guy his chips back. The commentators commented that this was a good idea 'cause business guy was a known donk and none of the good players wanted him upset.

The next two hands after he gets back he proceeds to call down with crap. The guys who told the dealer to give back the chips won more in those pots than the chips that were given back. And business guy was smiling 'cause he was "playin' poker" and having a good old time.

Happy donks are ATMs.

Just thought it seemed like a good time to reiterate this point.
