advice needed

edited November 2010 in Poker Chat


  hi a friend of mine is being followed round the tables they are playing at by another player

  this player does nothing but make snide comments about them

  been told customer service wont act because the person is question does not swear our directly say it to my friend

i feel this kind of childish behaviour must stop

im happy to name the player harresing my friend if the community wishes

but any other ideas are welcome my friend does not want to close the chat box as they enjoy a laugh and banter

    Please do NOT name the player on here, that'd be most improper & not helpful to his or her case.

    If he/she wants to drop me a PM, I'll make sure the right boys get to investigate it. However, simply following a player around may not in itself be sufficient to take action. Harassment, however, would. But that's quite a delicate line to judge sometimes.

    thanks tikay and sky mod will pass on this message

    the problem is the person has very little confidence that sky will do anything as several players have told them its a waste of time sorry

    not my words but several players on the site

    Not shooting the Messenger, you asked, & I answered!

    My advice to him or her is to ignore what other players say, & ask a Mod, or Sky-Rich.

    It appears the childish behaviour in this situation would be that of the "victim" who is probably over-reacting, given that no rules have been broken - and making a mountain out of a mole-hill. 

    If they aren't breaking any rules, what's the problem?

    Also, what was that "limp/call my shove" with 9-10 all about the other night?????  Probz one of the worst calls I've ever seen from one of the better players on the site.

    If I don't have fold equity when I'm 17 x bb deep and you're limp-calling my shove with ten high, when have I got it??

    If you genuinely thought you were ahead of my range (believed I was shoving 17xbb with like 70% of hands) then I will congratulate you on a hero-read.
