People getting aggro during online heads up?

    Does anyone else notice this? Particulary during heads up sit and goes? Maybe it's because people don't like my aggressive style, or because the high pressure nature of HUSNGs. Even at higher limits, where you expect people to be a little bit more mature, when I give someone the customary GG at the end of the game, it's not unusual for people to start giving me abuse back.

    Just had a game there where I cracked someones KK with my A7, afterwards he started calling me a pr1ck, and said that I got bored and just went all-in every hand?? The big blind was 7.5 times the average stack! In my mind it was all-in or fold.

    Another time somebody called an A8 shove with 22, and he started saying I was a sucker and used very abusive language???!

    I've started playing a lot of HU cash (lol SNGaments) and don't get that much abuse. It happens maybe once or twice a day, I pretty much ignore it or sometimes type things like "ul" or whatever. Definitely don't want to tap the tank.

    There was a hand a few days ago, I was playing against a shortstack at 1-2. The first hand I open to 6 with JT and he calls from the BB. Flop comes 843 and he pots it, I shove for about 50 more (lol donk bets, overcards, ship ship ldo). He calls with 56 and after hitting his 7 proceeds to tell me that I need to calm down.

    I'm there thinking lol wtf I was probably a favourite you moran, but tell him that "I'm just having a bit of fun". He goes on to tell me that he's just looking out for me and trying to help. I had no idea what to say to that so just said "ty".

    Definitely the weirdest thing to happen to me so far in HU.

    hmmm.....

    I never really got abusive in chat. Sometimes ill say something like well played monkey if they hit runner or something but my chat is off so i cant see any reply. Usually playing lots of tables so chat is just distracting.

    I got some abuse today and I was only playing a small session.

    Villain sits down with $100 (100BBs). We're about 3 or 4 hands in.

    I open Th9h otb, villain 3bets from the BB (first time he's 3bet but he's been playing aggro, opening every hand so far). I call (T9s is the nutz ldo).

    Flop comes 359 all spades. He checks I bet $14 into $19 and he shoves for about $76 more. I think and call. He show Td8d and he's almost drawing dead.

    Yep, took a fair amount of abuse for that one :D.

    were u playing me by any chance??? lol only kidding altough i am a bad loser and regularly abuse players when they suckout on me. take no notice of it probably just immature short tempered guys like meself,
    and ur right about the all in or fold situation i regularlly get to heads up in sit an gos where the blinds are 300-600 all in or fold is the best option i reckon

    I'm also a terrible loser online. Got a warning off pokerstars the other day. Some guy with a cat in his avatar sucked out outrageously on me in a tourney, and i told him i was going to come around and skin his cat, then piss on his carpet. Immature to say the least, but he obv ratted me out to support!

    !!!!LOL!!!!

    i'm quite certain that the chat window was created more or less solely for abuse purposes. genius really, what good is the internet if you can't anonymously slander strangers.
