Default Re: If morons didn\'t think online poker was rigged...

The idiots at live play almost ruin the experience for me.

It takes every ounce of my restraint to not get up and grab them by their shirt collar and start b*tch slapping them.


Example?

Playing in a live freeroll NL tourney (so yes everyone was pretty terrible) and some lady at the table had just gotten back from Tunica and was telling everyone about it.

She of course played limit and had never played limit before and sadi she lost money (SHOCKER!)

and like 2-3 guys at the table were like "That's not real poker, it's so stupid, it's not real poker at all"

some older gentlemen at the table mentions "Well I think it has different strategy. I have Super System, ya know Doyle Brunson's book, and it has a chapter on limit" and the guys (shaved head high school drop out tatoo'ed looking types) again insisted how limit "wasn't real poker" and was "stupid" (that was about the extent of their argument)

They prefered NL where they could do expert things like call reraises all in with A4o
