Personal attacks uncalled for

By Binki
Jul 01, 08 12:03 PM

What is wrong with playing OJ suited at a short table? It is the first time I have been attacked for winning. But to also be attacked for my weight is even worse. Attack my play if you like but don't attack me personally. I am overweight and have been all my life. I have lost over 100 lbs in the last 10 years but it is and always will be a struggle for me.

At a short table QJs is not that bad a hand. As far as personal attacks, there is and will always be insensitive jerks in the world. We'll just have to live with them and hope Karma gives them their due. I've played a few hands at your table and you're a fine player. Don't let 'em get to you!

Thats just rude and stupid!! Keep playing and keep your head up, and know that all here are not so ignorant. We all have our on issues and problems in life, being weight, sickness, finances,etc. Those who have to attack others personally, have some serious problems though, try to keep that in mind. I say ALWAYS be the better person and u can't loose.GL and see u at the tables. Congrats on the win

I was at the table when this happened. I agree that the situtation she is referring to was uncalled for, she had a decent hand for final table. However, she did donk out on me on the river by calling my all in with just 4 players left. It was sort of pathetic. Anyways - who cares what anyone thinks of you or says. I get called "lard ass" and "fat boy" all day long when I do well in hands. If you post your pic or choose a name like I have it should be expected that people will resort to it when a

Don't worry about the dumb things some people will say. No matter where your are or poker site you are on, people find it easy to make statements when they don't have to face you or explose themselves and their shortcomings. Play poker, enjoy yourself. Win a few, lose a few, but enjoy yourself and the many good people here.

Gamer it maybe true that I beat you when my A4o hit the str8 on the river to beat your A5o that hit the pair on the turn. I folded several hands before that to your allins when I had you beat if I had called with A5 suited. I usually let those go but there were only 4 of us left and I played the draw and hit. But that does not make me a fat donk or mean you need to tell me where Jenny Craig is. As I said in my comment GL to you

With all due respect, my name on here is "Fat Gamer". I'm not making fat jokes to anyone. On a side note, I was a bit burned I had a/5 and a pair of 5's on flop.. then you called with a/4 ... and hit straight on river. That was a tad "donkish". EIther way, I am sure we have all been donkish at times. Good luck and grats on the 40k.

As far as I am concerned QJ has been one of my best hands with straights and full houses. Wish I could have watched you win!!!!

Congrats sounds like your a strong player!! Ignore the aholes, turn off chat at times, The main goal after all is said is to enjoy yourself. QJs is a fine hand short tabled, And so is A4o. Short handed play is more read than cards cause almost all miss the flop. Good Luck Cya at the tables.

Don't let them get under your skin Binki. If you show that it bothers you then they think they win. I get called Donkey, Moron, Clown, and others all day long. Do as you did in a final table I was watching one day you we're playing, I saw someone make fun of your appearence and you kept quiet. Great Job. Congats on your success 3 final tables per 3000 hands is very good. Your trophy is right aroud the corner. Keep up your great play. ♫

It's the old action-reaction thing. You make someone feel bad, so they want to make you feel bad in return. Some people handle it better than others. Sometimes extreme anti-social behavior can be signs of other issues as well. Stay cool, play your game, and GL out there! 8^)

Ok, sorry for calling you fat. You play like a complete moron and get lucky but calling names is uncalled for. I apologize for the name calling. For you info, my entire familyt suffers from obesity.
That being said, Your poker is terrible, but for a cheap online site you are ok, but do not ever play live tourneys, you would be throwing away good money

So sorry you even had to deal with that kind of treatment. As much as you must have wanted to slough it off, hard not to let those kinds of personal attacks affect you! Whether you're a good player, or not, is irrelevant really, although there will always be "the poker gurus" who'll decide that for you every time. Hang in there, girl. You don't say whether other people at the table chimed in for you. I hope so. I would have! Have fun...
