LOL, I sit at a $4-8 game a while back and a friend of mine starts telling everyone how tight I play. I am think to myself, "Damit Winston, shut up!". The next hand I get KK UTG raise and get eight callers. I am not certain comments about how tight you play have a significant impact on your action.

After all, they came to the casino to play, not fold.

You may not have noticed a difference that game but over the long run many of the players who give too much action see the better players showing off their "good folds" and "tight play" and eventually tighten up and improve a little faster than they otherwise would have.

You are right. I wasn't doing the talking or showing anything down. My point was in regards to third party comments about my play. I don't think they have near the impact as the actions you mentioned.

maybe complain about holdings but just talk more in general if you want to seem more involved in the game. It really works well.
