Re: Things horrible players do

littering a poker conversation with incorrect usage of words like "range", "polarized", "fold equity", etc etc to appear as if they are full of strategic insight when they just out themselves as total fish.

I mean, come to think of it, the bad players in this thread just could not stop themselves from talking about 'range' when it didn't even make sense to use that word lol.

I only wish them luck if they're going to be the easier player to get the chips off of later.

Re: Things horrible players do

I don't wish the all-in luck when I'm in the hand, but otherwise I essentially always do it. It feels like a courtesy to me.

When a person asks 3 times "a flush beats a straight? I didn't know that.." and he was dead serious.

Yeah, I'm down with wishing the all-ins good luck. Jonathan Little says you're basically telling the other guy, "I hope you lose", but the way I see it, it just feels like a harmless, good juju kind of thing to say since we ourselves want some luck when we're all-in.

Re: Things horrible players do

Instead of good luck I say, "may the luckier person win," even if I'm over a 90% favourite.

Players who buy in with $40 at a 1/2 game and flat a $12 raise pf only to check/fold 3 times in a row and wonders where their stack went

I always say it in tournaments. I never say it in a cash game.

Talking about their hands aloud during every street post-flop after folding pre. Very tilting.
