    i think you should complain even if it doesnt bother you,he will just do it again otherwise and it could be to someone who is offended.You can take the first step in making sure that doesnt happen...

    ...i'm starting to sound like an RSPCA sdvert.

         I reported table abuse to Sky on 2 seperate times and they stopped them using the chat box, So if you dont report them you must but up with the abuse, because they wont stop it unless you" DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT"

    OK Genius let me explain it then. I meant you can thank him for promoting trash talk in the game between new 20 somethings who enter thinking it's all about big 3 bets and acting abusive to people at the table. Did i say he trashed me? no i didn't. His trash talk is as moronic as his dress sense.

    Ok genius? Ewwww you trash talking now..... You talk like a jim henson creation - in my opinion.

    Quote from Luke when asked about his chat -

    Does your chat give you an edge?

    No, not really. I do it to get under people’s skin because I enjoy getting under people’s skin, not because it gives me an edge. I’m talking about people I don’t like. I wouldn’t do it to your average player who just seems like a nice guy. I wouldn’t antagonise anybody for no reason, but anyone who seems a bit obnoxious – like durrrr – I just give it what I feel.

    Obviously your a fan, keep railing him and enjoy. But it doesn't change the fact that his chat streams are fed into forums where people think the game should be played in this spirt. The original post said "PEOPLE USE IT TO TILT PLAYERS AND PUT THEM OFF THEIR GAME" if you look back. There are plenty of examples of him using his digs to try and goad people into reloading when their sessions over or to abuse outdraws etc. Does he use it to his advantage..... .Yes, and he's good at it, but soem people are good at card sharping.... does that make it right?. The guy is marmite so if your on the side that loves him than fair enough. Im very much on the other

    I personally like a bit of "friendly banter" at the table, if you can get one or two people talking rubbish to you then they are not focusing on the game they are playing. However you do get some morons who like to bring your mother into it or start using obscene swear words bypassing the swear word filter by adding ...... between letters.

    It amazes me how much effort these pillocks put in to actually being able to put these words into chat!!

    If you get beaten by a bad beat then so be it, thats poker, let them know they are a very lucky boy/girl and give them a "nh" or whatever.

    No need to get personal about it, slate the dealer, not the player :oD

    		The language at the tables of this player ..calling me a C---  and T---   in the 1500 BH   .. 

    Would they do it live to my face .. I dont think so ............
    And you blamed that on a pro player.  No connection there as far I see.

    But I agree he is like marmite, so was Muhammad Ali, but his trash talking is no more to blame than Schwartz's for someone calling bennydip2 names.

    Limiting chat to active players (when your out your mute) would cut a lot of the name calling.

                Iv come to the conclusion that you pay your money and can play whatever cards you wish from AA to 7 2 for people who like to play rubbish hands hoping to hit good luck  (im sure youve herd the term "dont tap the fish tank") , as for the 12 year old i would have no qualms letting my daughter/son watch me as I can educate them regarding gambling (who knows they may be the next Annie duke) as for the swearing I cant abide it and always report them but you can always just turn off the chat.

    That made me laugh lol

    These days a 12 year old is more likely to pull out a flick-knife and stab the screen! lol

        "If you feel you have suffered table abuse at any level please report this to customer care" !!   It's alright Rich  doesn't worry me,   however I think the lady at the table was a bit shocked. She thought the chat box should be closed, her 12 year old daughter was watching her play and reading the chat..  The daughter apparently burst into tears,  the lady then had to console her daughter then blamed me for playing ' K 5 ' connectors. I told her to mind her own business as it was between me and him and then her husband came on the computer writing in the chat that he also thought it was my fault upsetting the guy for playing my ' K 5 ' connectors and his wife wouldn't be allowed on the site again ..??    I thought that was a bit harsh, and told him the same as you've told me.. click here   All it said was, " who can ya turn to " ??

    Just to clarify.

    You are sworn at by a player.

    Another lady player at the table blames YOU for her daughter witnessing the swear word because you played K 5.

    The husband of this player then also blames YOU for playing K 5.

    The husband then bans his wife from playing on Sky Poker ever again.

    Confirmation that trailer parks should not be allowed WIFI.

    Hi

    Just played super 6 freeroll, big blind at 1000, short stack goes all in 1700 with k7 off bb calls with 58h and hits a straight.

    Short stack gives some abuse and i figure that's it, then the guy comes back 6 or 7 hands later and really goes off on one.

    I did report it (sent e-mail to help@skypoker not sure if this is right channel) even through abuse was'nt directed at me because we can all type something quick when angry then regret it but to come back later and be very abusive, there's no excuse for that.

    Muting players not active would cure this but stop friends from railing.

    sending the email to help@skypoker.com was 100% the right thing to do. you could have also used the live chat.

    a reminder to all - please report all the table abuse. doing this is the best way to make sky poker a pleasant experience for all.
