just mute everyone and it will take care of them... your play is way to general to commit on an example would help

I reply with the following:

"Table-coaching is punishable by permanent revocation of chat privileges".

Personally,I keep the chat off at all times.Certainly wouldn't respond by explaining pot odds etc. If people berate you for calling when you obviously are getting the right odds....GOOD!!!

You don't want them to learn,you want them to keep giving you their money!! I understand your frustration,I play mostly live,and it's never fun to be lectured as you say,but I'm confident enough in my own play to just ignore them when they start up....either that or go buy an ipod.

Oh what fun is turning the chat off. I like to play with them...say stuff like "How can I fold an ace?" and my personal favorite "but they were suited." If they want to start calling me a donkey I'm happy to play it up, aware of the fact that I need to tighten up PF. However, I can try more stuff postflop, because they're like "he could have anything." People at the table thinking I suck is good for business, so I welcome it even if a part of me wants to tell them how great I think I am.

My avatar on FT is the Donkey. Whenever I'm accused of a donkey play I respond "hence the avatar." That normally shuts them up. Truth in advertising and all. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
