I've noticed it pretty often online, even some poker pros do it.

I never understood why players get mad at others for playing bad. Do you not want to play against worse players?

Even though, bad players do get lucky from time to time. If you play solid, you will prevail. Any thoughts?
 
Maybe such players want some good challenge when they play. It would be the only logical reason why they get mad at such bad players in my opinion.

Some players become angered with people who are not so good at the poker table. They expect their opponents, referees, managers and coaches to perform optimally and make right decisions. That means that bad plays can be rather irritating to them.
 
Honestly, i can't figure out the reason behind it. It also happen in every game. Football's spectators do go crazy when a player makes a mistake. I don't know how another man's problem is giving another headache

It’s competitive nature, nobody likes to lose. However, some do take it harder than others.
 
I think that a pro poker finds it hard to anticipate the moves of a fish poker player. That's because the moves of the fish player might be incoherent and random. That's why fish players anger them.
 
You're absolutely right. It makes no sense to get mad at bad players. they're literally giving you money in the long run. I think people get frustrated because of short-term variance and bad beats, but that's just poker. I love playing against fish who make terrible calls.
