Poseidon tried to punish Odysseus by laying a curse on him, saying that he (Odysseus) would never set foot on Ithaca without divine intervention (help from the gods).
Odysseus didn't directly fight Poseidon, he fought the effects of the wrath of Poseidon. This was since Odysseus blinded the son of Poseidon, Polyphemus, and told him his name. Therefore, Polyphemus prayed to his father, asking him to punish Oeysseus.
When Poseidon spots Odysseus in Ithaca, he becomes enraged at the Phaeacians for assisting his nemesis. He complains to Zeus, who allows him to punish the Phaeacians
Odysseus did not talk directly to Poseidon.
Poseidon hated Odysseus. He tried to delay Odysseus' homecoming. Poseidon hated him because Odysseus blinded one of his Polythemous.

he punished him with slavery (not that sure but that is what i remeber.)

He stabbed Phoyphemos in the eye and Polyphemos was Poseidon's son so Poseidon told Zeus to punish Odysseus.

Yes, Polyphemus did pray to his father Poseidon, not Zeus, seeking revenge against Odysseus for blinding him. Poseidon was the god of the sea and earthquakes, and he proceeded to punish Odysseus for his actions.
Odysseus did not talk directly to Poseidon.
The irony in Polyphemus's curse on Odysseus is that he unknowingly calls on Poseidon to exact revenge on himself. Polyphemus is unaware that Odysseus is disguised as "Nobody" when Odysseus blinds him, leading Polyphemus to ask Poseidon to punish "Nobody." This irony contributes to the cunning and cleverness of Odysseus in escaping the Cyclops.
Poseidon hated Odysseus. He tried to delay Odysseus' homecoming. Poseidon hated him because Odysseus blinded one of his Polythemous.
Because Odysseus had blinded Poseidon's son(the cyclopse)
No; Odysseus blinded the Cyclops son of Poseidon.
Poseidon was on the side of the Trojans, Odysseus was not. Odysseus also blinded Poseidon's son, a Cyclops... whose name I will not attempt to spell.
