A large % of gamblers are degenerates and this includes poker players. In fact with poker players, the % seems to be higher.
And on top of that, the majority of these just seem to be, at least, somewhat miserable humans. Thank God there is also a decent amount of somewhat normal ppl that also enjoy the game.
However, that's rare online, especially on this imperfect site where degenerates celebrate a winning hand by masturbating in public.
If I don't chat, it's most likely because I've recently run into a degenerate on this site and turned off chat.
