OTF OTT OTR = tilt

Just a little rant here but it appears that some forum somewhere has started using acronyms for "on the flop," "on the turn," and "on the river" and the influx of noobs with less than 50 posts seem to be bringing it with them in waves to 2p2. I don't know why it bothers me considering a ton of other stuff is standard to acronymise (is that a word?) like UTG and SB and EV but it does.

I will continue posting using all three words with respect to which street I'm talking about out of spite. I'm also rather old in terms of online poker players (late 20's) and I am probably just resistant to change.

  1. LOL @ (late 20's) and resistant to change! Sample size issue here JH1. Or should we start using 'SS' for Sample Size?

  2. WIth each new generation, I'm afraid it'll only be a matter of time before all poker conversations will be composed entirely of acronyms! :]

    I'm a little younger than you, but I totally agree. Let's keep the acronyms that we currently have, but we definitely don't need more.
