I have a funny question. When you guys play poker online, do you still practice your poker face at the computer or do you let your expressions run wild?
Sometimes, I keep a poker face and pretend like I'm playing live because it helps me take the games more seriously and to slow down. But most of the time, I just make out-loud comments and faces because it is more fun and none of the other players can see me.
Since it's online, I have no poker face. If I had the card I want, I show happiness.
No I don't. But I do try to remain calm, because anger will only make you play worse.
im always yelling at the tv screen lol with anything im not the best of losers especially when i get donked on
As I sit here and giggle at the thought of MANY people sitting behind their screens randomly screaming (FU, I GOT YOU MFS, BLEEPS TAKE THAT!, I CANT BELIEVE THAT CALL DONK, NITZ, REDAMNDONKULOUS), oh ya I got many more thing is sometimes when I do play my live games I sometimes tend to forget that I am playing Live...LMAO and I get a notion to blurt out like random turrets WTF was you thinkin you MF!.....As everyone glances around at me I then realized FKKKKKK This is real oops. They like to penalize people that curse in certain casinos so tisk tisk I try not to use random blurts....even when I wanna LOL
I watch pron to try and reduce my tension. Unfortunately I end up feeling dizzy or lightheaded.
Not Recommended.
ha ha ... I curse like a truck driver when I lose a hand. Someone starts talking smack to me....I'm talking in it back. I just don't type it all in. lol
no i dont play with a poker face but i do not that emotions are not good in the game stay calm
I know what you mean man. And sometimes it helps to just let it out, it seems like if I try to bottle my frustration up, i just release it by tilting on the felt and I would much rather just say a bunch of words, than cost myself money.Quote:

my poker face is my ugly face :P
I naturally have a blank expression, so when I'm by myself playing poker, I just don't naturally show expression. I think this helps me with a good live poker face. However, if my husband is in the room, I do some out loud bitching whenever I get donked by Carbon's software. You know how it always seems to come out with that outer, or that river card that happened to be what the other guy needed.
Yes must not show your tells anytime. It's good to practice while playing on-line so if you do play live you have worked at hiding tells.
Yes, I usually play on ZyngaPoker is greater than it has on facebook, most do not usually play much because it is not real money, but it seems that they are going to put real money on a server outside facebook. I hear rumors, do not know if are true.
i am very expresioned when i play live so i have a monster or a bluff im just as expressioned..
I long for that day to play live at a casino. I have yet to do it. I think it can be fun to try to hollywood people in live, or do you think that is bad poker manners and people just get upset?
