I know at times I/we can all get a little frustrated with how some people play "Home Games". And yes, unfortunately it can get under some players skin and the verbal diareah begins.
How frustrating is it to see a player calling all the way with crap cards even with an ALLIN and then hitting on the river??? Damned frustrating, but I guess we are all guilty of that from time to time.
And again, when some knob like last nights game just keeps going ALLIN every hand. Finally, someone calls with a decent hand only to be sucked out with terrible cards. And this continues to happen over and over again. It's like they have a cheat program and hit with any 2 cards.
Is it frustrating, hell yeah!!!!
So, why do they do it? I don't know. Maybe they get their jollies from pissin people off by doing it. But I do know it pees people off to the point where they become abusive.
But let's face it, some of the abuse online is getting out of hand and I say policing the site on a regular basis is definately needed. We can't do much about the poor play other than beat them, move onto another table or watch them crash and burn like they usually do.
That's all I have to say on the subject. Cheers from a Forrest Gump fan.
this!
i was sitting next to you at the time bob, we were both trying to make light of it, but it wasn't to be
i personally hate it when you come up against a player that goes all in every hand and wish that they would go back to burning ants or playing red rocket with the dog or whatever they do in their sad little lives... you know as soon as you get rockets or something similar your gonna get a call, and it seems that their 2 cards will hit!
i know theres nothing that can be done about it, but anyway...
and 40 to frown
