Playing against my local regs is wearing against me, so I am considering taking a poker vacation, finding the most miserable LO8 game, and making fun of any players who complain. (Which, based on my experience, will be most of them.)

I'm not going to criticize their play. I'm not going to use any foul language. I'm just going to whip out tons of snark about players being crybabies to let off some steam since I have to be nice to local ATMs.

How bad of an idea is this, how much trouble can I get into, and what's a good place to enact this plan?

Every single card room that spread L08, that's where you'll find them. What sort of snark are you considering using?

Please do the following:

Say "nice hand sir" when you win a pot
Say "I would have folded that hand" when someone loses a pot you're not involved in
Explain how you soulread someone after he showed the hand
Say "but sir, those are not very good cards" after someone gets caught bluffing
Call out cards that are bad for another player when you're not in the hand
Slowroll the heck out of everyone in the casino and their cat
Ask the dealer for new decks every, single, hand

I will sit there, listen to them talk, then use their own words against them. If anyone wants to whine about politics, I will troll them with an exaggerated viewpoint from the other side. I will river old men and point out how much Viagra they could have bought with the pot so that they could fix their broken penises. I will ridicule their favorite sports teams and openly root for players to get injured (unless they root for my favorite teams). If I get one of those douches at my table who likes to build up these giant towers of 80 or more chips because he's compensating for something, then he loses most of it, I am going to ask what happened to his towers, then make a 9/11 joke based on his response.

This all seems like a really bad idea that will net you nothing in the long run except maybe an ass kicking depending on how far you take this project.

I'd just pass on this plan, but YMMV.

Best bet is to come to Arizona and talk up the progressive left at the table, that'd do it.

It kind of sounds like you want to do this with the local regs but you're afraid of getting your ass kicked and/or burning bridges so you want to go somewhere else and take out your frustrations on strangers.

I'm afraid of getting banned from my local casino and losing a significant income stream and want to take out my frustrations on strangers. Blowing off some steam might give me some release to dull the urge to go Paddock on some people.

This isn't making fun of people, it's being an poophole.

If you think a Trump supporter can rile up a leftist, you should see how bad some of them react if you suggest that they are insufficiently progressive.

To people who deserve it.

I suppose that you can sit there and say things like 'old people's opinions don't count' and slowly read the board to them while they stare at it bec many are half blind and make dementia jokes. And don't forget the TR.

Depends if Bruce Banner is in your game.

Casually mention that the earth is flat and that everyone who still believes in the globe earth suffered severe oxygen deprivation.

Also water is FAKE because else the fish would drown.

****ing millenials. Get a life, dude.

If he plays 4-8 it's cheaper than a psychiatrist.

This is extremely accurate.

That's why I keep my mouth shut.

Then you'll come back to the same whiny regs. If you just do it to the same regs instead, before the point of getting banned, maybe they'll tone it down a bit when you're at the table.

I don't want them to tone it down. I want them to remain the same horrible, predictable people who make me wonder why I've never heard of a poker dealer bringing a gun to work and giving us an example of workplace violence.

You don't get in trouble for being a dick; you just have to live with the fact that you're a dick.

Do you even lift, bro?

Dude, maybe it's time to just take a vacation, but I don't know how being a miserable **** is going to actually make you feel better. You need some time off. I mean, I know you're not advocating it, but you're talking about workplace gun violence....

Take a step away and go do something else. This isn't going to make you feel any better at all.

Seems like just a nominally bad idea. Really hard to get in too much trouble, worst thing that can happen from the casino is that you get kicked out. Worst thing that can happen otherwise if you're enough of a prick is someone tries to kick your ass.

Going somewhere to a place where you don't know anyone for the sole purpose of being a d-bag is hardly doing something to people 'who deserve it.' You know nothing about them and yet you want to target some random table for the sake of you being an poophole.

You sound like you must be a joy to have at the table...

Typing that out didn't make you realize how awful it sounds?
