My New Year's Resolution

Yes, not much of a resolver, but I have made a resolution this year. This is a resolution you should all make. and no matter how hard it is, follow it!

"I resolve to compliment every player who makes a poor poker play against me, whether they win or lose the hand. Even if i cannot fathom their reasoning for the call, I will pretend it was the smartest thing for them to do"

Example from Saturday:
I have QQ in the hijack, I raise 4x. The small blind goes all in, about 12 bb's total. I, of course, call. he shows K9 os. I won easily when a Q came on the flop, but I say.
"good hand K9, tough break there"

I challenge everyone to do this. There are just too few fish and we all need to stop giving them a free education by calling their plays dumb. So find something positive to say to them, even if that K9 beats your QQ with the 3 outer. Other players will laugh, but you do not have to explain, just keep the compliments coming.
