Yesterday in one of my many freerolls, I recieved more than my usual quota of abuse. I do not know why but I responded by typing 'my888.com' in the chat. Well, I do not actaully think I could have written anything better. I could litterally imagine him going bananas at his end as a long stream of conciousness flooded the chat screen. I ended up 30ish in the tourney and did a little pr for my888.com. Well they do say that there is no such thing as bad publicity. So give it a try, next time you get abused at the table.........

True Donnie.
I actaully love to see it. lol
When they are mad they make mistakes (buzz) and this person did not expect my response.
He two bet under the gun with 10 10. I was on the BB with A3 suited and double his stack size. It was the last hand before the break, no brainer.
If nothing else he would have googled my888.com. Nothing else positive about abuse on the tables. If he made it this far, he might actually learn something. :)

Your prob right Rod.
To me it was a no brainer to call, given all of the variables and my personal experience in playing freerolls.
I play certain freeroll tournies with such regularity that I have noticed how the software reduces players numbers at certain times in the tourney. At these times, other players on the table become mere distractions.
Just before the break, only an all-in would have got me to lay down my BB, maybe a three bet or better. This action tends to break me out of my world on the table and bring me bang into yours. Where I make mistakes.
So I remain in limbo, between your world and mine.
Glad you raised that point. There was me thinking we all thought the same :)
I hope my explanation helped?

I think the best one for me was when I out played someone and he started with things like what he wanted to do with my Mother, I left it for a bit and then replied with, My Mother said where do you live as she wants to come over and take you up on your kind offer. The only reply I gpot was your one sick ****** ****** and he said no more all the time he was at my table.

Nice one Shiny....lol
When the abuse comes from someone playing and not someone who has just been knocked out, I usually accept that maybe they are trying to put someone on tilt.
I actually accept it as part of the game. If I do tilt then they have done well.
Kind of a battle of minds.
With yours, he was obviously not smart enough to think of a good enough response.
I do have personal limits though. If someone exceeds my own personal limit and they are effecting my game, I turn them off.
