Title: ? of the week / do you do this when you get sent to the rail?
Post by: wsopin07 on September 03, 2005, 06:23:13 PM
I have taken some time off from online poker, have not played since april at any online site!

I played my 1st comp on Benny Hill and I won it easily, but I forgot how upset people get when you knock them out :'(

The way I play involves the fact that people always say I gamble to much, but do they take the time to think about the #'s and the situations ??? DC just said he should have called for value w/ the Q7 on the poker den last night, I thought the same thing!

When I won the WSOP PLH I had 2 "pros" tell me I played terrible as they hit the rail, on Benny Hill yesterday I had 2 guys tell me the same thing, one typed chat and would not stop. Why act like "Phil H", why tell a bad player he is bad?

I love when players consider me bad or lucky, They let down their guard and they do not play their best against you, please realize there are more than 1 way to play poker.(I dont know if some do)

What do you think about "knockout chat" and do you chat at the person who sends you to the RAIL ???

I always try to say "nice hand" or "well played" when I get knocked out, but if someone has a go at me when I knock them out, I can't resist baiting them

Whether it be on-line or live play once I'm out, I'm out. I never mention it to anyone. If I think I've played badly  I will try to self analyse, otherwise it's all about the next game. You pays your money, you take your chances, as far as I'm concerned you can play how you like!!
Strangely enough I played against a guy up in Dundee in the winter who took time out to go thru my game with me.  I took a lot away from that conversation. What was even more amazing was that he was a Yorkshireman and he bought me a beer!!!
 I'm sure he had a pretty good result at the WSOP too......lol.

The best baiting seems to be the simple comments. I always find "speak up- I can't hear you from the lobby " usualy gets the blood boiling. A knockout chatfight would be great. Lets have a bracelet for it next year I say  ;D

Table etiquette is one of the most important things to me and I hope my opponents see me as a respectful participant.

I watch in dismay when I see people lowering themselves to berating other players. Do these people have no pride?

There are advantages to adopting styles that opponents consider to be terrible. Just ask Gus Hansen. Would you ever try and nick his blinds?

Nice post Rookie. You responded to my Last Longer Challenge yet? Or are you scared I might find J-4 & get you off a monster again?

In reply to Rookie's question, I find that snoopy has used almost the exact words I would have, we are clearly of one mind. Which is a bit of a worry, to tell the truth......

YOU should be worried Ariston. You are treading on VERY thin ice. If I go off on one, you'll know all about it.

Yes Tikay, last longer w/ you? My mother has always taught me to be nice to the old and the blind ;D

I will have to think about going against my mothers wishes if I want to enter into a last longer w/ you  ???

Well you have NEVER beat me yet Rookie. Guess there has to be a first time, eventually.


Title: Re: ? of the week / do you do this when you get sent to the rail?
Post by: wsopin07 on September 03, 2005, 09:34:08 PM
I do have to admit you are 2-0 against me, but like a told DC yesterday, the cream always rises to the top! And you will not be the top the next time we play.

I will chip beat you
I will out play you
I will out analyse you
I will out chat you

I cant wait, I need some easy fun ;D

And yes my favorite way to handle the knockout chat is to calmly explain to the nice person that I will gladly kick their ass again the next time they sit "at my table".

I like to be quite, right after I take the chips and the win, just watch my ESPN final table and you will know what I mean!

Post by: ariston on September 03, 2005, 10:15:20 PM
Quick story which can be confirmed by a few blondites. Last year in caribbean we were on the bubble when a particularly loud/obnoxious yank puts a river beat on a young willhill qualifier to eliminate him. Cue whooohaaa etc so I stand up and copy him (irony- yanks just dont get it), he turns to me fist pumping and says yeh buddy to which I replied with one word ( rhymes with 2 hats). I then told him to sit his ass down and show some class as the young kid looked very pained. He did and I sat back down to the dealer and all the players tapping the table. One other american at my table said about time someone said something against this type of behaviour. Didn't make the Final TV edit- I wonder why?


Title: Re: ? of the week / do you do this when you get sent to the rail?
Post by: Maroon on September 03, 2005, 11:26:39 PM
I think showing class against this type of behaviour is the way forward.  Two good examples are Harry D with Josh Arieh and Greg Raymer with Mike the mouth.  Makes the bad behaviour look even more stupid and sets a good example to new players.


Title: Re: ? of the week / do you do this when you get sent to the rail?
Post by: wsopin07 on September 03, 2005, 11:50:43 PM
2 great examples, Raymer is truly a nice guy, same w/ Harry, Ive sat w/ each afew times now and they have handled some tough beats w/ class

Post by: ariston on September 04, 2005, 10:56:51 AM
It was my first big buyin event (5k or above I mean) and I said at the start if I came across any of that sort of stuff I would have to say something. If you had seen the poor kids face who had just been eliminated just short or a minimum 7k you would have said something too. Even the most mildmannered players would have wanted to slap this guy for whooping and hollering. Most players where internet qualifiers and a lot of them may never get another shot at a million dollar prizepool, there is no need for it imo (should be in the pet hate thread this one maybe).

Some of the yanks where great blokes, usually the players who have been there and seen it if you know what I mean. I bumped into J Walter Thomson ( a yank version of robert binelli with amazing tash and beard combo) in vegas and we had a good chat and coffee. He knocked me out of the main event in st maarten and took time to discuss his thoughts on the hand that knocked me out- didn't need to but he was an absolute gentleman. I do not dislike yanks at all (that would be generalising again) but there are some of them that are just too american if you get my drift.

Talking of Americans (which we were) & Brian Wilson who started this thread (which we were not), WSOPin06 sent me texts at 0400, 0430, & 0500 this morning, grr.....

It seems he has signed up on wm Hill and has been terrorising the locals, & winning little short handed comps left right & centre, & ALL sorts of comments have been appearing in the chat box about his "poor play, you'll never win a bean".

I think he just rattles his bracelet.....

I must confess, I loathe loud Americans, but Brian is the exception, you gotta love him. He won one comp on Wm Hill by RRR-ing with 2-2, & it held on against AQ - followed by ALL sorts of noise (from his hapless oppos) in the chatbox.

He comes back to the UK in October for the Grand Prix. Can't wait.
