Need Advice - Ploppy Trouble

I have a ploppy problem. This one guy caught me in action once when everything was working. He said I look like someone he knows and started calling me "genius" because everytime I put out a stack of chips, I win.

It seems lately, everytime I am at a table, this guy comes up and yells out "Hey genius". Then goes on to regale the table and dealer and pit crew with his story about how I always win my big bets. It pretty much kills any hope of continuing after that.

I have tried telling him he has me mistaken for someone else. I have tried giving him a very COLD shoulder. Looking him dead in the eye and telling him to shut up. This guy just won't leave me alone. Everywhere I go, he seems to be there. I don't have many casinos to choose from, so it's not like I can just go somewhere else.

Any ideas? I am considering having him whacked. JK.

Ploppy Trouble

Act like a moron. Never say anything remotely intelligent. Celebrate wildly when you win. Get angry when you lose. In other words, act like a degenerate ploppy.

When you win, tell the ploppy you were just lucky and that he should have seen you the other night when you lost your shirt.

Sounds like you're going to the same store too often if players recognize you. If you live in a one store town, and want/need to play there more than once every few weeks, you had better work on your act.

Ploppy stalking

When you lose a big one, throw a bunch of insults in his direction about mucking up the cards, flow, etc. Don't stop until he gets the point or leaves or both. Make sure you have a bunch of drinks in front of you too when that happens.

two possibilities...

either he is *not* a ploppy and simply wants to blow you out of the joint. i've done that. getting a semi-skilled player 86'd: enhances your cover; could explain away a table shortfall; should extend your playing time at that joint.

or, you act is so poor so as to be obvious to even a "ploppy". then, unless you are losing, the joint is aware of your threat and your time is limited.
