how animated are you when you play online?

[Graham C]

I tend to bounce up and down from time to time and react to big hands when playing on line.  Don't tend to do it live though.

Are we still talking poker here?     

lol yes, I'm not a monkey!

[LeKnave]

when i jam with air and am staring @ the spot in front of them to see if chips pop out.  if chips pop out i swear some1 nails me in the stomach.

iv also punched many walls and bk in the day my head, grown out of tht 1 tho.

I'm usually calm, although I do some version of an Ali-G boyakasha hand thing when I win a critical pot.

Sometimes I hurt my fingers and have to use the mouse left handed for a bit while they recover.

I will be totally unanimated most of time, to all of sudden moments of pure rage. These normally involve swearing v loud, punching the desk and when things going real bad throwing  the nearest random object across the room. Unfortunately a number of these items have proved breakable in the past.

sounds just like Kev! I've learnt to duck and cover as a random mouse bounces off the desk.

I don't do it anymore, but I have smacked things. The desk, the chair, the wall.  The wall hurts the most, and that reminds me, I still need some polyfilla for the office.

I actually punched my laptop which once is funny because playing live even when i've taken a massive beat i'am pretty calm.

lol I actually punched the screen of my ex's laptop after losing a few big cash hands in a row, it was proper bolloxed so i blamed it on the dog knocking it off the table

Gotta love new for old insurance...

[Ismene]

TBH it depends: If i slap the sofa I am far less likely to tilt, than if i just swallow the beat silently. Live - one tune comes on the ipod and repeats till a cold calm settles.

It's been known to repeat without interruption for up to half an hour.... However on my way to the cold calm in my head  - the body has been known "dance" and the silent karaoke come out in force....

Gotta win a pot first.

interesting replies - thanks.  Looks like I'm on my own!  Don't know if it's just because I'm pretty laid back - maybe I don't care enough?  I simply don't get excited or annoyed enough to react when I'm playing.

When I won my biggest tournament to date ( for approx $2k) I ran around my flat for a few seconds like a lunatic!

Live not bothered at all. Internet is different. I have developed a good coping mechanism for deep bad beats which involves shadow boxing around the room pretending to love the pain. Bring the pain. I am finding this approach is wearing thin quicker than expected. However, my fitness has improved significanly.
