Players with no respect for others and for poker

I often reflect that an opponent's lack of respect is usually the noise that tries to hide their lack of strategy, their lack of patience, or simply likes to annoy others. I've seen a lot of players using it, whether it's going all-in with junk hands, throwing out the different animations, garbage talks, the impressive number of times you do limp and wanting to play with all your hands. The question is: Are you going to let his ego dictate your game, or are you going to let his arrogance empty his chips? I imagine it's different and easy to do behind a screen, because sometime I'd like to play live poker, but it would be difficult to deal with people like that in a real casino.

Yes it's annoying, but there are such people everywhere, so we treat it differently. Don't get hung up on it.

Encountering disrespectful players is, indeed, a very unpleasant situation. But the main goal is to play poker and make the best decisions. The behavior of other players should not influence our strategy or emotional state. Focus on analyzing the disrespectful player's moves, not their words.

Encontrarse con jugadores irrespetuosos es, sin duda, una situación muy desagradable. Pero el objetivo principal es jugar al póker y tomar las mejores decisiones. El comportamiento de otros jugadores no debería influir en nuestra estrategia ni en nuestro estado emocional. Concéntrate en analizar las jugadas del jugador irrespetuoso, no sus palabras.
Thanks for the advice, all in all it helps me to develop more patience.

Я часто задумываюсь о том, что неуважение со стороны оппонента обычно является лишь попыткой скрыть отсутствие стратегии, нетерпение или просто желание раздражать других. Я видел, как многие игроки этим пользуются: идут ва-банк с бесполезными руками, разыгрывают разные комбинации карт, отпускают грязные разговоры, лимпят карты невероятно часто и хотят играть всеми своими руками. Вопрос в том: позволите ли вы его эго диктовать вашу игру, или же позволите его высокомерию опустошить его фишки? Думаю, за экраном это сделать проще, потому что иногда мне хочется поиграть в живой покер, но в реальном казино с такими людьми было бы сложно справиться.
I just hate these players!!!!!!

Unfortunately, there are Triples A's in poker(Always Arrogant A*holes) who use bullying, stalling, and disruptive behavior, to cover up a weak game. I close my eyes and pretend to sleep. They eventually stop. I also do not converse with about anything, to me the only thing about them that I acknowledge is their play. Were you referring to Will Kasouf from GB? He seems to be the resident asshole who infects every game he is in.

The truth is simple: the loud ones are usually hiding weak play. I let them talk , their arrogance empties their stack faster than I ever could

Dude, it's very individual, but in general, if you allow yourself to get irritated, it will be very bad for your game in the long run. Mental preparation should be considered, even more so for those who play more live, especially against this type of irritating player.

There aren’t only four aces in the deck — there are also four deuces. I used to play only strong hands as well, and it didn’t lead to anything good. But when you’re willing to play any hand, even trash, you have more chances to achieve better results — at least that’s how it worked for me. By the way, watch how top players play on YouTube; they also enter pots with trash hands. You just need to understand when to do it.

Some people just don’t get that poker only works because of mutual respect. Angle-shooting, trash talk, slow-rolling, acting out of turn it all screams insecurity and bad etiquette. You don’t have to like your opponents, but respecting the game and the people at the table is basic.
