But if someone simply calls with 7-8 high preflop and hits something that may be valuable and ends up taking out your pocket q's or k's.....that's poker. I get alot of mixed signals on the felts from being called a donkey to people crediting my play and giving respect. In conclusion, i'd say who cares what others think, it's all about the money nd in the end, the one who has the money is the winner, regardless.
this is how i feel on this subject, i dont give a hoot about what people think of me when i have just demolished there stack, its only chat and it can be disabled. i play the cards, i play the opponent (if i think he can be bullied of a pot, u dont need premium hands to win a pot)
