Some absolute nackers on sky poker.

Playing 2p/4p blinds, I'm not a pro, I don't profess to be a pro. I'm not bad, I'm generally even on here but I am under no allusions that I'm not particularly good compared to many. 

Yet people still posting on chat slagging off my style of play. I keep saying I'm not bothered, I play for a fiver and it gives me hours of entertainment. Yet they still persist in trying to tell me what I should have done. Who in their right mind would insist on trying to tell someone what to do when they've repeatedly asked not to be advised? 

Then there's some asking to meet up for fights with other players. Getting ridiculously aggressive. 

Then there's the numpties who come, lose their money and say "I'm leaving, I can't play with you rubbish players" because you called their bluff when they've been betting stupid amounts on bad hands all night.

In conclusion, I love the poker, but think a few chat bans would be a good idea for some people. Don't understand why they get so emotional over tiny amounts of money. Just to clarify, the vast majority on here are good people and I've had some great chats with some great people. Not tarring everyone with this brush at all, just a vocal minority who do my head in.

    Stuff the chat, if I wanna chat I come to the forums where there are acutally friendly and helpful people to chat to, at the tables, meh, just turn chat off, or I can't see the chat anyway playing in mini view.

    I have to say the more negatives you get the better the player you are!
    It's easy to tilt when some numpty gives you grief
    but if you consider the only reason thet are bad mouthing you is because you have out played them you're on the path to winning poker!

     Just do what I do. Be really overly nice to them. Really winds them up and tends to put them on tilt. Whatever you do don't get them chat banned or all the truely bad players who love to mouth off will go elsewhere.
     Sticks and stones and all that.
     Embrace the trash talkers.
