What's Your Least Favorite Phrase, Word Or Reference In Poker?


Recommended Posts

Mine is undoubtably the term "donk", or "fish".I've grown to kinda like the variations like "donkaments", etc.I think it's because they actually have a higher level of thought, by people openly admitting that a certain tourney is just ripe for bad play.I think I hate these terms so much, because ever since I started playing online a good 4-5 years ago, it seems like people learn the term donk before they learn about anything by way of hand analysis. I speak from experience. I know for fact that I knew what a donkey or a fish was before I knew what fold equity, pot odds or expected value was. So in theory you think I'd laugh if/when anyone ever calls me/someone a fish or donk, but for some reason that annoys me more than anything else!!!!!!Anyone else have a "poker standard" thing that just gets under your skin?
"I'm gonna put you all in."Referring to 3 of a kind with 2 on the board as a "set."

People saying "ty" when you make a call or push with a worse hand. There is not much that people can say in chat that tilts me, but this one does.
people saying "nh" to the guy who stacked off A2 v AQ and caught a Q22 flop.

I usually reply (after losing) with, "Thanks, too bad my hand didn't hold up"."ty" after someone wins the hand is pretty annoying too."Sick" when something is standard is another one.

It only really tilts the hell out of me when the supernova nit at the table loses the one hand he plays an orbit and then busts out his cap locks key to let all the profit on the table know how terrible they are and unwelcome in his presence.Nothing worse in poker.

both. I also dislike "ul"probably because I thought it meant u lose for quite a while and was wondering why all these people were mocking me.
