Berating donks

[bottomset]

about the worst I do, is the occasional lol after they do something stupid, otherwise I don't say much

I just keep telling myself, "Decisions not results." Keep making good decisions and the results will take care of themselves in the long run. Then I kick the dog!

When they call my pot-size bets all the way to the river, then they show me that the river card filled their gutshot, I just remind myself that these are the guys who donate 90% of my profit.

I want to berate them. A lot. But I always remember the old saying, "Never smarten-up a chump."

I love the stuffed donkey idea. Problem is all I have is a stuffed Eyor, and if I punched it it would make my daughter cry...

Actually the stuffed donkey thing may not be that good.

Experiments have shown that people who act out on their "tilt" by smashing objects or punching stuffed animals tilt for longer than those who don't.

It keeps the adrenalin going and you don't want that.

Didn't think so. I call BS.

It's not like anybody really cares what you call.

BTW, I do berate regular shortstackers. Or rather gloat and rub it in when I win a coinflip against them.

I will never ever quite berating short stack nits. Call me a jerk or what you want but that aint happening. I love throwing them on tilt and messing with them.

If i might demonstrate my approach. You have to turn an unlucky defeat into a victory as you positively reinforce bad play. Then EVERYTHING is +EV.
