So for example then:
 
Let's say theres a game going on with a few unknowns, and a few pros.  One of these pros is Phil Hellmuth and he has pocket A's.  He raises in position preflop to 4x BB and he gets called by someone out of position holding 7 10 suited.
 
He flops an A and the guy who called him flops a flush draw.  Hellmuth checks it and the guy bets half the pot which Hellmuth calls.  The turn is a blank for both players but Hellmuth leads out and bets the pot which the other player calls.
 
The river makes the other players flush and Hellmuth check calls and proceeds to go nuts.  Now aside from the theatrical value we get from Hellmuth is it really necessary to mumble on for 10 minutes about getting bad beat?
 
Now he doesnt berate the other players so much (he just calls em donks) and curses to himself.  
 
What does that do for Hellmuth except make him look like an azz? 
 
 I think its even worse online cause Ive sucked out on people before and they will stalk me to every table im playing at and shout from the rail all their obscenities.  I dont think thats appropriate behavior.
 
Nor should it be tolerated.  Every poker player has been sucked out on more times than they can remember.  I know I sometimes lose my cool and say dumb things, but I dont say half the stuff some of these people do.
