And like I said, I don't mind at all if someone posts a picture of themselves with some chips and an explanation of how they were won, or if they update on their progress in a game. It's just when someone posts "Currently sitting on this in 2/5 at X casino" and then a bunch of chips. It's like, okay, I'm just looking at money on a table with no idea how it was won or if it was even won. You could be up $5 for all I ****ing know.
When someone posts a picture of their chip stack on IG, they're just bragging about a good session. IG is an app for people to share pictures, it's not a poker hand history app.
If you wanna know how they were won, why don't you just ask them? (personally when I see chip stack pictures on IG, I really don't care how they were won, and I don't go on tilt from not knowing, but that's just me. Sounds like you get jealous very easily).
