What to do when the people at table being hostile What to do when the people at table being hostile

Hi guys. I recently played few sessions which were mainly against tight passive rec players. I play very aggressive at such tables and am always like the only raiser that raise pre flop and love to take the pot down with cbets or double barrels. Then after few such stories, some ppl at table will start to talk about me, I can feel all of them are whispering each other "punish him,punish him....". One of them is a not decent regular player, he is very talkative with other people. I kinda know how to exploit him especially according to his bet sizings. After few hands he tried to convince other players that I'm a bad player and always ask me to show one card after I won by raising his weak cbets. One time I did show my kings and he is like look at this clown who hit everything.
This doesn't bother me, and I only like playing cards instead of being social. but I'd like to know what would you do if you were me and if such situation will affect the profit at table. If this thread is not suitable, please lock, sorry.

Be friendly, tell jokes, and don't worry about it. Or put on head phones and don't worry about it. Or tell the guy who needles you, I'm a fish, come get the chips you nit. Or don't.
If you're a winning player, beating the game, just keep beating the game.
Never show. Keep punishing them. If someone at the table suggests that I am a bad player, I try to encourage that idea verbally. I don't start playing bad or showing cards, but having an opponent who is basically helping your win rate by promoting an image for you -- that's gold.
I find that being social, telling jokes now and again, maybe casually and in a fun way bust someone's balls at the table -- and then be like, just kidding man, I only said that bc you seem like a guy with a great sense of humor -- doing that makes the table more fun for everyone. It promotes gambling and your opponents will be happier to lose money in general and to you specifically and they won't target you.
If you look and act like an antisocial nit, sure they'll target you. And that's fine, too, just don't let it bother you. But being an antisocial nit isn't the most profitable image, I don't think.

Better off in the Live Casino Forum, or the old Bricks and Mortar.
