Does Trash Talk Change How You Play Poker?

[Bawse]

Have you ever had another player’s trash talk actually change the way you play poker?

Does it tilt you and make you play more aggressively, cause you to make riskier decisions, or do you use it to your advantage and stay focused on your game?

How do you usually react when someone starts trash talking at the table?

Trash talk does not change how I play, I am unaffected by trash talk. I don't listen to people when I am playing, my entire focus will always be on the cards and I will be thinking harder about my moves.
