Message: [QUOTE="Eddie Leeway, post: 1868154, member: 83537"] I try to avoid it...but when I get a crybaby who starts talking sh*t to me after I win a hand off of them I tend to go off It always seems that there's a "Pro" playing micro stakes who acts like they know the game better than you so they start with the DONKEY CLAIMS which always makes me laugh.....if you're such a superstar/pro then what are you doing playing micro-stakes champ? I do find trash talk to get to me at certain times, but this of course goes both ways.... Example; Last night I was playing a $3 regular 9-seat SnG and early on I limped into a hand w/4-10 CLUBS and flopped a flush draw so I called the next bet which was (I believe) 40, and the next bet at 70 so I went for it and called with a 3rd player calling as well....I caught another club on the river....I had the bettor pegged for holding a straight so when he went all-in I took the chance and called...the other player before me did not call.....when I took the pot the player who folded started crying and whining calling me a DONK and all, and I always find this as a case of sour grapes. I took a chance here, and the price to call wasn't high at all....they should not have let me limp into the hand and the bets should have been stronger because I would have folded and I would not try to chase it if either one did play it aggressive....The fact that I bet a total of 110 in chips to see the turn and river wasn't a donk move at al, in my opinion He couldn't get over it and I proceeded to keep up with his trash talk and wound up as the solid chip leader throughout the game right up until the remaining last 3 players into the money along with Crybaby and another player who no held the most chips between us....when crybaby busted in 3rd place(I wish it was me who knocked him out, but it wasn't) I sent him my "utmost gratitude" and finished the game placing 2nd after 11 more hands....I knew I was getting under his skin because up until the final-3 players he stayed away from the majority of hands I was in and played extremely tight...earlier on he was playing too many hands and trying to be aggressive A week earlier I had some crazy lady making all these racial comments when I won a sizable pot by flopping a straight(3-7) she was calling me a donk because I called when she had the top pair...It didn't make sense what she was saying....She started sounding off with "your momma" comments like a damn 3rd grader and used the "N" word a few times claiming I must be one since I'm from New York along with all this other nonsense I just kept popping off right back at her and entertained the rest of the table as we went along.....I've played her since and she's kept her mouth shut, for now I thought of reporting her simply because the racial comments were way off base (especially when all poker sites have people of different race/nationalitiy/religion), but I myself didn't want to come off like a rat so I let it go because I don't want the BS drama either, and she's the one who needed to get over it If you want to trash talk at least be witty and smart about it...don't make yourself look ignorant, racist, or small-minded because it will reveal just how unintelligent you really may be to the other players who really don't want this BS at the table anyway If you lose just suck it up...it's part of the game...we've all lost some great hands due to the usual river magic and outright luck for the opponent, and you'll just end up looking like you're a cheap, whining crybaby who shouldn't be playing the game in the first place For what it's worth...this is my two cents on this thread/subject Good Luck out there [/QUOTE]
