This player should behave at the poker tables based on his experience playing there, not only does Ike Haxton use a mask to play, years ago there were also players like Huanda who also used it but they didn't say anything there.

That's why I ask what is happening, from what I see it is something that has to do with poker, but if you don't want to answer, no problem, this thread is about the stupidity of a player in criticizing his colleague for the mere fact of having a mask in the mouth.

Every player has the right to go play poker anywhere with any clothing, I hope that is clear, I think that for many years I have not heard tremendous atrocity from this player.

Those who do not know the game of poker will always tend to criticize for anything, those who truly dedicate themselves to their game in particular are the ones who win in the end, this player spends his life criticizing others and does not look at himself in the same way. what you are doing wrong.

It is a reality in the world of poker and in any field, the people closest to your environment are the ones who speak badly about you the most, this player should respect his colleague and not be speaking badly since it does not affect one person but rather a whole community.

They should sanction this player, always the same. What he creates is a bad vibe for this great sport like poker, instead of expanding he does the opposite with his comments.

The best is yet to come, poker is always one of everyone's favorite sports, but we should not ruin it with mediocre comments like this player criticizing another, the rules are to be respected
