Re: How to deal with this bitter poker player what should i do
i believe he was using the run-on sentence to convey
a style of verbal speech pattern where the talker is
so excited or agitated that he doesn't pause. i found
the punctuation-less style amusing and communicating
effectively the emotional state of the writer.
having said that, when some turkey jumps up and rejoices
over a bad beat / play by me, i usually say something
like:
"You know, that really hurt my feelings."
A.) It's true and
B.) it defuses my own tilt and makes me laugh because:
C.) the tilter usually doesn't know how to handle it.
D.) The tilter usually follows up with an even dumber
remark, like "YOU DONKEY!!"
E.) At which point, I'll deadpan, "Wow. That really
hurt my feelings, too."
F.) At which point, the table is usually totally on
my side, which is a good thing.
