what i mean by a maniac is a donk that calls with all sorts of crap to try and get lucky, calling all in for all there chips with nonsense. what your calling a maniac is just someone aggressive, i myself is very aggressive and passive people will think your crazy but there is method to what your doing crazy people just have no method to what the feck they are doing and are just maniacs lo i know what you mean all the same but if i see someone just being very aggressive i just think hes good. I guess its just the way you look at it

i dont think you can judge and stereotype any player by the country and even if you could there will always be exceptions and you'll never know which one you against till u really play against them. its just like badbeat scenario u r making up wrong conclusions, but just my opinion

lol im not saying that if they are from a certain country thats it i take it as fact they are going to be bonkers that would just be a brain dead thing to do, as i said in the beginning of course all players from these countrys are not bonkers. Like Jazzy says when you see a guy make some insane stupid call and im thinking WTF then i look where hes from and hes from one of the countrys where i think there is alot of crazy people it makes more sense to me.
Most of your descriptions in general are pretty spot on for a initial thought when you check where a player is from, i have noticed a lot of Russians can be very Loose and crazily agressive, although like you said not everyone can be like this. What I try to to do now is not to check where people are from as some sites you can put you are from anywhere and sometimes as thie thread is showing is that you have a perceived view of players from certain countries which can be used against you.
There is no point in saying that some player is donk. Well, I agree that some people play awful, but I'm not calling them donks, bonkers etc. For me there are calling stations, TAGs, LAGs etc.. Saying that someone is a donk is a sign of tilt, especially when you try to do so with whole nations. Winning players never think that way, so either you're not winnig or you're in tilt right now
this guy loosekiddie above is a classic example of donks defending there play they do this because your a world away from them. you cant teach them any better they refuse to learn. got to remember the players that play like this will lose in the long run call them a donk say youll shoot there first born and leave the table polish are the biggest fish in my opinion maybe its because polish sounds like foolish?
I'm one of them
