It's definitely best to just ignore these guys. The few that do show up at a HU table usually do so because they're experienced HU players and think they have an edge on you. If you're arriving at the table tilted by them, they almost certainly will have an edge anyway.

There are jerks in society and some of them play online Poker. Treat these guys like a nutter on a bus. Ignore them.

It's important not to name individuals on the forum, in this way. The guy's not here to defend himself so please erase his alias.

    Why do people in Low stake Buy in's feel the need to offer out anyone who beats them in a hand, then not show up in the Heads up table afterwards?
    I just wondered as "A PERSON" spent ages offering me out at various levels but when I sat he didn't show??
    Whilst I would rather play him at PLO, I reg'ed at 25/50 NLH as requested but he didn't show.
    Does this happen a lot? or was this a one off?

    OK done, but surely naming and shaming would be better?

    I know what you're saying and it's annoying to have these guys around, but the rules about not posting individual aliases are there to stop people maliciously undermining someone's character.

    I'm not suggesting this is what you're doing, of course, but if someone came on here saying "This guy called BorinLoner just said XYZ about me in the chat box" and I wasn't here to defend myself, I'd think it was pretty unfair to be judged on that. It may or may not be true but my side of the story wouldn't be heard.

    Besides that, the 'community' is meant to be a welcoming place. We don't have to like each other but if we have a dispute it's better to deal with it privately, rather than in an open forum. The rules about naming names are there to keep things all sunshine, lollipops and rainbows. lol

    The reply by Mr Borin perfectly sums it up.

    We so often see "(alias) cheated/colluded on the Tables last night".

    In a civilised society, we cannot just go round making unsubstantiated allegations in public, especially when the alleged offenders are not here to defend themselves. It's just wrong.

    Remember, you may be on the wrong end of such allegations one day. You'd not be a happy duck if you were.
     
    These things cut both ways.

    As soon as Mr Borin pointed out my faux pas I edited it so i doubt you, or indeed anyone apart from him, saw the original missive. I would also like to point out that my 'unsubstantiated allegations' are available if you wish to read them, as I Copy/Paste any chat I feel may be of interest later and I am very aware of how Interenet posts can be mis-interpreted but I can assure you, mine was posted in good faith.

    All fair & noted Mr Quak, my point was generic, not specific, & I apologise if it read otherwise.

    Note that you should always send such stuff to Customer Care if the chat or comments are inappropriate.

    Thanks, & have a great weekend.

    Polite? Of course. Nobody takes a blind bit of notice of shouty-wouty rude people!

    Owning me @ PLO? Standard.
