Poker talk online insulting

I don’t usually partake in online talking, but I love see what players are saying to each other So I know who is on tilt . So I can attack the tilt players

usually I always answer, always in the best way, if I see that I cannot control the situation, I completely ignore it, sometimes it is better to avoid ...

the best problem is the one that is avoided ...

Sometimes ignoring them is not the solution because they continue to bother you and it becomes a very difficult situation because they are pending, so you lose to start making fun and it becomes mental and they start using those EMOTICONS and they start throwing things poop ice, cookies , wallets, rockets, toilet paper, it becomes quite annoying, and when that person is eliminated he continues to use the chat to continue bothering, I speak of the poker star room. It's a headache with those bad losers

This is all true, that helps our deconcentration, and therefore you have to know how to handle the situation, they throw things at you like so that you accept and pay the bet knowing that they have the nuts hand.

I respond with a smile

I mostly play live so when someone is trying to get me off my game it’s usually cause what I’m doing is working. I reply with a smile and if they get to bad I let the floor deal with it. I say that and I have only been in one situation where it got escalated that much.

Most people are gracious even in defeat.

Ignore them. t b h I am usually paying attention to the cards and the play not the chat.

Hello my dear! I don't turn off the chat, but I don't care about cursing. And to be honest sometimes I do some insults like: Are you a fish or what a stupid call, you are a donk ...
But yesterday I witnessed a situation of racism and free xenophobia, and look that I am detached in this aspect, nor am I influenced ... I was terrified!
The situation was as follows: two players playing a hand, there was a big bad beat on FT and one of them got very angry, wished cancer to the other's mother in the chat, and by empathy I was supportive saying that the other player was fish. In the same second he started ... I will repeat his words: "Shut up, you Brazilian monkey! Do you want bananas? He said that my people sucked. I was very upset.
Now I'll even turn off the chat.
I reported to support!

It depends on who and why the insult, if they are racist insults I usually respond! But normally I don't even read them

On online platforms I disable chats and gifts. But if I am offended at live tables I demand respect and punishment. Offense is not the quality of a poker player.

I ignore every kind of comment. Some people are trying to play with my patience than with the cards. I am giving the answer by earning their chips

rock0001 · Jan 12, 2021

i always turned off the chat when im playing to prevent losing focus on the game and to avoid being tilted if someone insults me... i think thats a big advantage when playing online unlike live tournaments where you need to keep concentrating in the game in spite of these type of comments.

Maxim420 · Jan 12, 2021

People rarely chat. I like to chat people while playing but I never get responds

ringworm · Jan 12, 2021

Online I ignore all chatting. In live games, I'll put in for a table change if i don't like my table for any reason, including someone who is making negative comments.

Uncloggie · Jan 12, 2021

If it is especially vulgar or profane, I believe the best action is a screenshot or two

(Windows key + "Print screen" on a PC - the picture should then appear in the pictures file under screenshots)

Send it in to the customer support, they usually have dedicated abuse@ email addresses for this... rooms will then mute or ban these people.

It used to be a huge problem in the early days of online poker. Now thankfully not so much, thanks to cracking down on this by the rooms and the players reporting them.

But there are always newbies that think they can get away with it.

So do everyone down the line a favor and report them.

You could be saving someone especially vulnerable from being tormented.

Imagine your mom playing a game of poker. If it's something you wouldn't want her reading then report it.

My 2 cents...
Cheers.

I normally report persons who are abusive via chat. I totally agree with person above post#140 you cannot just ignore them as they will keep doing it.

Unfortunately there are so many nasty people playing poker now it has become a chore and tiresome to keep reporting. I just keep my chat off except for homegames and the Cardschat games as I know those are friendly.

nghoffman · Jan 12, 2021

I always turn the chat off. There's nothing beneficial that anyone has to say. Anytime I have turned on the chat for "entertainment purposes", all I've gotten have been silly insults and stupid racist comments.

bioman420 · Jan 12, 2021

tboth in the game and in real life, insults must be ignored, all badly spoken or desired returns double to the author of the insult..³

YogSothoth · Jan 12, 2021

I have never known a winning player to act like a p***k in chat. Only losers. Ignore them, I say.

tomk7788 · Jan 13, 2021

The way to beat a bully is to out bully him/her or whichever one of the other 87 genders out there.

Milez1991 · Jan 13, 2021

No i dont react. Sometimes for fun i do the different Emotes when other do it

Snake2007 · Jan 13, 2021

I will ignore

edujah420 · Jan 13, 2021

I don't even answer but I take it that gets in the way a little bit in concentration

SubZero111 · Jan 13, 2021

It depends on my mood. It can be quite entertaining to get into a bit of a jaring.

danydidi · Jan 13, 2021

i ignore ,i dont know the player so wtf .let him speak as much as he wants,i enjoy it

suitedsadness · Jan 13, 2021

I ignore it, but if you are sure you won't be tilted, I think you could consider arguing back with them to achieve optimal tilt from them.
