Does bitterness inspire literary genious?

« on: August 02, 2006, 12:08:48 PM »

Today, I've got the chat windows open special to try to catch some nuggets after a player has lost chips that they feel were pushed the wrong way.

I thought a thread of some of the wierd and wonderful things people say after you outdraw them at cards might be in order.

I don't really have anything at the moment which springs to mind. Some guy did just say....

"ffs, ur so lucky"

.....in the chat box.

I think we're all agreed that this is neither wierd nor wonderful. But in the interests of being comprehensive, and to get the ball rolling, I thought I'd include it. Also, we don't want to start too strong now, do we?

So then folks, just been heckled? Do tell us what they said so we can all feel warmer and fuzzier. Or perhaps just smugly superior.

In a pot where I had the nutflush draw after the flop and the bet was soo small I got 8-1 on value.
After the turn makes my flush and the guy (original raiser) goes all in and gets 2 callers + me.

how the hell can you call with a flush draw?...you are the biggest fish I have ever played with!

Man I love cash games online.

I got about an hour of intense verball abuse that slowly mutated in to a friendly banter after i made an insane play in a $2/$4 nl game.

The unfortunate recipient firstly wrote 'what the f#@k are you doing?' which i thought was quite good.

The most abuse I seem to get is from Mikky T in the Blonde games Cheesy

'why did you calling my raise with that junk etc?' I expect if I were an anonymous opponent the chat might be a bit stronger!

In a similar situation - but in a tournament - the player I knocked out didn't bother with technically misguided criticism, he just put, "I hope you die in a car crash".

Some people take their $5 MTT's way too seriously!

In Blackpool, after busting a little old lady in a shootout.

"How many times have you played live, you're an arsehole, a f**king arsehole"

She looked like such a sweet woman.

True, when the buy-in is less than the price of a pack of cigarettes, the most you can reasonably hope for is for your opponent to get a mild headache.

I've had people be sacastic "very well played, nicely done" and horribly vitriolic "i hope you get cancer".
Neither bother me at all, i sometimes reply to the nasty ones with "do you kiss your mother with that mouth", which of course inspires a lot of mother abuse Cheesy

Then of course there's MUGLY slagging off every hand i play but the poor chap is trying to learn the game so i forgive him.

Gutted, I just went all-in with A4o, got called by KK but hit a straight.

My opponent said...... absolutely nothing.

I obviously need to work harder.

In an STT on Laddies, it was a Dane vs Norweigan confrontation. The Dane got sucked out on, AA vs JJ. The Dane's remark was, "How predictable. Like the contents of a Norweigan's rucksack."
Still makes me laugh, don't know why. Maybe it's a deadly Scandi insult.

Not actually a reaction to anything I did playing (my poker is faultless, no-one would dare Grin

), but my avatar on Pokerstars is a cookie, a delicious Tesco's Finest chocolate chunk cookie, and some guy once asked me if it was marijuana. Someone's been staring at their screen for way too long...
