Poker Players Are Terrible People

SydTheCat · Aug 8, 2017

I like to think I'm someone with good morals and I'm kind to others, but
If you stop and think about it, poker players are terrible people.
We sit around a table smiling at each other.
Meanwhile we all lie,cheat and steal from each other. LOL
Maybe that's why it's best I don't play live. I'm not a good liar. [emoji23]

In life, many poker players are kind people giving money to charity.

I laugh a lot with this way of seeing things, it is a reality, I laugh a lot again,We are all liars and deceivers lol,We are thieves because we steal our friends when we are at a poker table

I'm laughing thinking about it all

good (funny) thoughts haha
im not a good lier aswell, but very often the money is necessary only for the game have a proposal (when you play with friends) and you can enjoy it without thinking about the prize pool

But that's just a part of the game all players agreed to play. It doesn't mean players act like that in real life though there are always exceptions.

Maybe they donate to charities to ease their conscious. [emoji23]

There is every one on the tables live, there is every character, there is the one who has his poker face all day, the one who is talking all the time, the typical fish, the typical shark, the friends who pass it Talking all the time, and then there's the one who plays quiet, ah, and I'm forgetting the one who plays with balaclava lenses and cap hahahahaha, it's all a joke

And there are those that disrespect other players at the table which is even more terrible.

We are offering the fish a fun time by regularly keeping the tables populated, we are in no way bad people. Do not twist this you filthy traitor.

Also, soccer players are constantly stealing each others' balls.

Boxers are hitting each other.

Sprinters are repeatedly running faster than the one next to them.

Pinball players are always stealing each others' high scores.

Backgammon players keep blocking points.

American footballers keep bashing into each other

Et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.

SydTheCat · Aug 17, 2017

Soccer players are kicking each other balls. Terrible people

Still better than Monopoly

Boxers who also came to the ring in life can be good friends, but this does not prevent them from beating each other with all their strength)))) in any sport there is excitement and also a loser and a winner !!!!!

AKbadboyAK · Aug 18, 2017

In my point of view I do not see terrible poker players, but they are kind, nice, cool, funny, and like you said at the table, many are liars.

This is the way I look at it too. As long as we're all playing within the rules, may the best (or luckiest

) player win :top:

People are pretty bad and selfish in general. So it's hard to expect some goodness when people are fighting for money.

MattRyder · Aug 18, 2017

Most poker players are just everyday people. Some are good (most actually) and some are bad. Even good people get upset at times and say things that they regret, and there are certainly lots of opportunities to get upset if the cards aren't gong your way. Lying, cheating (metaphorically speaking) and stealing are just parts of the game.

paulinhlt · Aug 18, 2017

You do not have to be a liar, you have to be smart and a strategist! Liars always screw! Hahaha

effece · Aug 18, 2017

Stating it that way I should give you the reason, but, that's life

Fastone2 · Aug 19, 2017

If ya cant run with the big dogs, stay on the porch....

Dailon Arroyo Blandon · Aug 19, 2017

In my opinion I believe that in the world of poker players we find all kinds of people .... good, decent, serious, good-hearted people, inclusuve I've known of people who when they get a good prize or become millionaires help To the poorest and most needy people ... but we must recognize that there are also bad people, bad character, full of vices, who if they win a prize, they waste it on inappropriate things ...

jfofla · Aug 19, 2017

Not that players of poker are terrible and yes they use of strategy so that the advesario is lost and this happens to the one who has weak mind.

Davydave · Aug 19, 2017

I think it's an accurate cross section of society. There are super nice people, colossal a-holes, and most of us who fall somewhere in between.

discintildeath · Aug 19, 2017

I feel like this rings much more true in cash games. I like tournaments much better because you can pay once as if it were a different kind of entertainment like a movie. In a cash game you always want that donkey to come back with more money and feed your bankroll. In a tournament it doesn't seem to work that way. I mean sure you want to get as many of their chips as possible but one or 2 buy ins is easier to walk away from at a tournament then it is in a cash game for me.

Actually poker taught me a few real life lessons that i could use everyday like thinking of he/she lying at me or not bluffing me or not etc haha xD
