I've been thinking about one guy who always criticize on the table. Every move you make he’ll say “why would you call that?” it's always better to ignore such a person and focus on your cards. The more he talked, the more i realized he was projecting his own insecurity. Some people criticize so you doubt yourself.
 
The best way to deal with such player is to avoid and ignore them, but at the same time work hard to improve your skills to become a better player.
 
I frequently come across people who always take pleasure in criticizing others. While this is not a good behavior, it is also a common trait in many people. If you oppose them, they might even start a fight. The best strategy is to avoid them completely.
 
I have met people at the table who like to criticize other especially when they are in winning streaks. I just ignore them. If they continue to do it, I leave the table.
 
Criticism makes me uncomfortable but I try to stay calm and avoid reacting emotionally. I also focus on my decisions, not their commentary, and treat it as background noise.

Hey all. I've been playing mobile poker apps (PPPoker, X-Poker,PokerBros, ClubGG) for a couple of years, mostly in Asian clubs.Built a comparison directory at poker-catalog where I track rakebackrates, club traffic, and agent reliability. Happy to answerquestions about the mobile poker world — it's a niche mosttraditional poker players don't know much about.
