whooppinggggg and hollering , good or bad fpr poker

[RED-DOG]

used to take great pleasure in taunting the opposing fans, even though I knew they were gutted when they went a goal down or lost a match.

Perhaps this is part of the reason I don't like football.

keith i quite agree with you and tk , shoving it up somebody is wrong ,  dont mistake me defending it with me thinking it is right , you really need to read all the post.

as for the german coment , it is what we call humour in the north.......................................................


 as for rolf slotboom   if i ever behave like he did in the master classic then please tell me............. i dont agree with everything that is happening but i have seen the growth in the business in the short time i have been playing , it is changing whether you like it or not and it will get worse , i have made big mistakes , both in the way i act and the way i play.  but who is there to tell me or others what the etiquette is , HOW SHOULD I BEHAVE ,,,,,,,,  

tk pulled me up a couple of times this year, once i was pretty horrified if i was behaving as tk perceived it..............  BUT IM LEARNING AND I WILL MAKE MISTAKES , I HAVE HOLLERED , BET I WONT DO IT AGAIN THOUGH

What's the difference between a high five in a casino, and an aaaayyyyaaaarrrr on the internet?

I ask because I'm firmly opposed to the former, yet frequently indulge in the latter, when a blonde sounds the PRO bugle.

Other than the obvious live and online poker being different kettles of fish, is there a logical basis on which to draw a distinction on the ethics of the two?

Or am I just a huge hypocritical contradiction? Muttering quietly at the hoopahing brigade when I play live, but doing, what amounts to the exact same thing when so and so gets to the final of the 37k guaranteed.

i think there are a cuople of points we nee to clear up tk.

1 . i dont see you as old fashioned (other than you tesco tshirt at bppool)  i hold the deepest respect for anyone who can last more thsn a few years in this game (without going mad or bust)l,  please dont mix my comments with any individual,  particulaly you, whom i hold in high regard .
as for your barbed comment about physical attributes , i still hold firm you misread the trembling hands situation .

2 anyway the paragraph you pickd out was again misconstrued , or badly written by me.,   i meant to say you mentioned the 2 most succesful of the 2 groups who yu said" were classy", whilst camel was saying "oh god does this mean the 2 groups are "whoopin and hollering"    you answered his question without realising it

im a bit dissapointed this isnt being deeply discussed and we are just taking the base values , i think the whole topic has real depth , thats why i posted a long post , but hey

1) I never misread "the trembling hands situation", but the geezer with the trembling hands, whose first Live Tourney it was, evidently took it badly, as he told me he'd never been so embarrassed in his life. He had a medical condition which causes his hands to shake uncontrollably, & he'd never dared play Live before. He told me afterwards that he never will again. You can hold firm all you like, I believe what you said was bang out of order, (just my opinion, but I'm a humanitarian) but it's done now. Sorry about my Tesco shirt. £6 in Tesco, exact same shirt in Gap costs £45. Who's the fool? I don't have any personal issues with you, either, but we see things differently. Thank God.

2) Maybe you wrote it badly, maybe I answered it badly, but Camel can defend himself, I was not defending him. I ask again, why "interestingly"?. I was not aware - enlighten me please - that Wernick, Lucy or Giosney were or are part of any collective.

You are disappointed the topic is not being discussed? Or is it because you are not finding much agreement with your views?

Good debate, imo.

Keep it coming, if you can cope......

I believe you (we) should treat people at the table the same way you would in other situations, just because you're playing poker, it doesn't mean normal everyday good manners and courtesy should go out the window.

[RED-DOG]

I agree, great subject for debate.

This is an interesting point that I never considered.

Why is it unacceptable to celebrate in the casino, yet when there is a blonde running well, we all shout ayyyyyyaaaaar and whatnot? Surely the guy who has just exited or suffered is reading that and perhaps just as upset as someone who has endured an equally disappointing demise in the live arena.

INTERESTING COMMENTS KEITH ,  why would you then swap % WITH SOMEONE you played with in the master classic , i may be wrong but you were sat next to each other at one point.

Because I never swap enough of a % with anyone to make a difference to how I play against them.

One mate I used to swap 10% with, but we wanted to knock each other more than anyone in the comp, bragging rights, see?

Apart from him, I never swap more than 5% with anyone. And then if they are on my table I try to knock them out!

I swapped with Paul Parker in Amsterdam. And I knocked him out just short of the money.

im dissapointed in you tk.

why would i think im not finding people who agree with my views .................


thats why i think the post should be read and discussed deeper , the crux of the arguement is not what i agree or think , because i agree with you and tom in the main, i should and could behave better but i hate all this shouting at the table , at the efop the french were a disgarce it wa like jeux en frontiers with stuart hall ffs.


i do think it is crap but , like i said it will get worse as the game becomes more global.
