Etiquette for Poker Players

The rules of decency and good behavior when engaging in any activity with other people are automatically practiced by most people as they are in any social gathering. Activities involving software are another matter and the well-designed application will not take offense at the occasional outburst of pent up emotion and aggression. So, if you play poker to get rid of your Neanderthal instincts and redirect your frustration, stick with the bot opponents. Unfortunately not everyone follows this advice and thinks that bluffing while playing poker with humans requires behaving like the schoolyard bully.

A lot about a person can be ascertained by his behavior, especially when involved with other players in a game of poker. The expert player comes off as focused and purposeful in his manner, even though he may be politely brisk. He is there for an honest, competitive game of quality poker. As for the student of the game, the more sincere, purposeful and focused he is, the better the chances that he is following the basic rules of etiquette.

A professional is known as one because of his demeanor as well as expertise in his field. He knows a pleasant atmosphere creates a winning one – for him. Experience has taught professional poker players that insulting the rookie not only endangers this pleasant environment but also cuts into their profits. The rookie can be a most profitable opponent.

There is definitely as great a need for etiquette on line as in live games. First and foremost, minimize chatting. Remember that every time you type a message, you reveal information, as well as receiving it. Information gleaned that way may easily mislead, and frequent messages, to you or between others, may distract. It is sensible, depending on your sensibilities, to even close the chat for the duration of the game or at any specific stage.

Just as it is considered impolite to discuss your income with outsiders, it is equally so to discuss your level of mastery of the game or of any acquaintances’ game. So if you are indulging in a chatfest, you may be revealing way more than you intend.

If there is no way out, keep your chatting politely reserved and try to minimize it for everyone. Save the pithy gossip for the water cooler or chat room. Stay away from creating a negative atmosphere by your choice of words. You want a neutral environment to play your most winning game.

Attempting to raise the ire of your opponents by insulting their technique is not going to increase your odds of winning and again, may reveal more than you intended about you and your level of mastery. Out and out rudeness is officially not allowed in most online rooms.

Don’t type messages in upper case, this denotes loudness and that you are screaming at the recipient, which makes you seem overly emotional and out of control. Not good in a poker game. You want to be the cool cat, the one with poise and grace under pressure. A veritable Cool Hand Luke.
