Is it just me or is there far too much congratulating for 'NH's' in 888pl games?
When A 5 off beats my K K with my huge pre flop raise, it's not a 'NH'. LOL.

Totally respect the politeness, its alot better than some of the abuse I have seen thrown around. But tonight when my 5 5 takes down a pot in the rebuy, against 2 x A J and I am congratulated with 'NH' for taking down 'a race & getting lucky'. I just said, 'not really, but thanks'. I am in no way being rude, just honest

Yes, especially given the amount of comments about abuse in 888PL games i hear at my local away games... (havent played any myself for awhile)
Also, i think it safe to say you can take some of the "nh"s as sarcastic, tongue in cheeck comments, exactly like when someone calls your 50BB allin 4 bet from the SB with their A6o and cracks your Cowboys.... With an 8 high, 4 card on the board straight... NICE HAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (wanker)
Edit: SNAP on the abuse in 888PL games....

Totally agreed - I bite my tongue when I see a 2,3 off crack AA...
Sometime i do say Nice Hand Sir
Nice Hand = Catch
Sir = Moron
Raises and bets.. are about communicating to others about what u may have... lots of people simply can't read what it means

Yes, and sometimes:
Hand = Chase...
I forget the number of ridiculous chases I have seen....
Allin on the flop chasing a runner runner, 6 high in the hole, flush...
Which hits...
And wins....
Ugly...
But hey people can play their hand however they see fit...
When this happens to me, I just try to remind myself... 4 out of 5 times I will be felting them...
But they do seem to hit more often than 1/5 of the time...

lol, I don't know if it was because I was playing online more over the last couple of weeks or not, but the runner runner suckouts on 888 were definitely at their all time high! It got to the stage where I
knew what the river card was going to be (card and suit) with most allins.....
And it was always the sick one!!!!......
