i understand what shaniac is saying, but is it really horrible to be excited about things like this? is it some mortal sin to be happy for a friend? i mean, i dont see a point in playing poker if we are going to be indifferent about every time we succeed, the reason we, or at least i play poker is, aside from just money, it is exciting, occasionally you do get to do something for which you can be proud, whether it be in cash or mtt, there i don't get why anyone would play if they were going to be totally indifferent about everything and just do it for money

Yeah, all that's well and good, but it's somewhat illogical to act indignant when someone like Haralabos makes a comment that you don't like. If you're so happy for gobboboy, that should be enough to let you ignore the reaction. Gobboboy talked, or implied, plenty about his opponents and how much better than them he was, so it's a matter of dishing it and being able to take it, too.

yes, and i wouldn't have really minded if he just said gobbo is bad at poker and was a total luckbox to get as far as he did, but it seems so underhanded to sit there making personal insults, especially since i talked to gobbo about it and he said haralabos was pretty nice at the table, seems really immature to just make personal attacks on someone, i realize my post about him saying gobbo sucked out when he haralabos misscounted outs was excessive, i just felt like this guy was really being a dick for no reason and the fact that he would missreport a hand to make it sound like gobbo had made some horrid play also adds to the annoyance at someone acting like this
