Abuse as a result of your username.

[SteveO]

Forgot to post this up during the week.

In the Hendon Mob league game during the week got involved in an altercation with a guy who disliked my username GodDelusion.

Now to most people this is a very inoffensive username, but to a God fearing Evangelist it must be the utmost of blasphemy.

Anyway fcuk that guy and his omnipotent God.

I love it if people get upset at me, almost certain to beat them.

Usually works wonders...

I try being "Ultra-nice" and it does wind people up. I did someone with AK a few nights back - I had 2,2 . He/she piled on the abuse so I told them that i loved them and was sorry that I did that!! Cue, more abuse mainly about "Muppets like me shouldnt be allowed to play poker". He then re-loaded and raised big while i had JJ. Just as I was about to move all-in, the player before called with AA and screwed him for my pot . I then told him that I was sorry that the other guy did that to him. Wound him right up!!


Then I got him chat banned

Agreed

It's unusual - usually the Mob games are played in a great sprit....

I don't know what it is with me but i seem to be a great target of abuse in cash games . For example on pkr the other day i was just minding my own business on a 6handed table when all of a sudden this guy just starts to abuse me for playing tight. Literally every single hand this guy gave a running commentary, usually going mental when people entered a pot with me, which didn't help my game. What i did was just ignore him and use the flirt emote whenever he spoke after a while he shut up .

Then on FTP the other day i beat someone in a big pot 6handed, they gave me uber odds on a draw and hit the nuts which got me a torrent of abuse from two players but i didn't say anything just to annoy them even more .

Another example is i was running over a 6handed table on FTP, playing great LAG and a conversation starts between 2 players about how great i'm running, why i'm getting cards and they're not and just generally annoyed by me.
Not too many other people seem to get a lot it but i seem to attract 'attention' more than anything i'd say and i just take their money and sit there quietly .

There is nothing better than having someone give a running commentary on your game - it gives you a very strong table image that the other players have brought to their attention (as opposed to the usual mix of those who notice and those who dont) - you know very clearly what the other players think of you - it doesn't matter what that is, you can take advantage of that.....

I meant as a result of just your username not anything else, GodDelusion seems a pretty inoffensive username does it not?

My username seems to be a red rag to Wycombe Wanderers supporters. They hate us with a passion.

Might have something to do with being a pretty low probability of SteveO writing a bad beat thread (though I'm sure he receives as many bad beats as we all do )

As I started reading letter of the month in this months Inside Poker, I did skip to the end to see if it was from "Nade of Sheffield".

I'd say your comments are pretty apt for this thread 'abuse as a result of your username', it's a shame
