Table Manners

Nick urges you not to get sucked into a slanging match with an opponent
Nick urges you not to get sucked into a slanging match with an opponent

Whether you believe in karma or not, it can pay to have good table manners in poker, as Nick Wealthall finds out…

You may remember my short entry in the front of the magazine last month – a shameful tale about abusing my opponent in the chat box. Well now I’ve decided to let you in on the whole sorry tale. But before I do I’d like to say that I don’t believe in karma. Good things happen and bad things happen and one doesn’t necessarily precede the other.

That said, the problem with having bold beliefs about the universe is that they will usually come back and gently bite you on the arse. Before I can get into my tale of woe I should make it clear that I don’t condone abuse of opponents – no matter how lucky they get.
