To respond or not to respond .. that is the question .. lol

If you have success and confidence in your style of play those are compliments. I always like to note that hand and replay it, your going to get more from your opponents game. They are giving you insight on what makes them mad, how they don't play and how they expect you to play them. Those are very beneficial, as the key is staying in what works for you, not what they want working for them.

Thanks for all the replies ... and thanks Miss Stephy for the compliment .. I learn something everyday .. this is a great site .. Zab and all of the moderators do an amazing job keeping this thing together. Must feel like a school room full of kids on some days .. lol ..

Ignoring them is probably best ... lol -

I've completely turned my chat off at the tables now. I think that probably pisses them off more than responding to them.

So I am a lot more vocal than Mr D is ..I have a tendency to want to respond when someone calls me names. I am trying to behave and recognize they are just venting BUT ..; sometimes I just get mad .. especially when someone goes all in and I call because i just don't believe they have what they are representing and I win .. then they start calling me names .. like Nice Call Donk .. Fish .. etc .. really??? I respect bets when I believe them ..LOL .. anyway .. just wanting to know if this is the norm and I should just ignore it ..

I used ot respond, but then over time I finally just got to the point of blowing it off and not caring what the other person was saying.

I like getting called names. It means I'm winning and they're not.

[fishinthesea]

i love being called a donk, it's usually after i bust someone because they suck and i didn't.

[wooo]

i agree with PooffyFooffy
when people go off at you it is normanly a tell
i sometimes look up sharkscope at there stats
normanly there loseing players
it gives me the info i need to call them in a hard sit
what there really doing is saying that they suck at poker
and in time they will give all there chips away
