Are all of you guys losers without backbones? Whats with all this "i would of jokingly said", "in a non accusing voice", etc, and worst of all, just remain silent altogether.
The guy str8 up stole $25, from a rookie no less. And all you guys are gonna do is just be playful with the guy? Or worst of all, not say anything at all?
Please explain to me cause i am having a hard time understanding this. Is stealing at the poker table any different then stealing from any other facet of life?
My post may sound harsh but all you guys seriously need to grow a set of balls. What you should do in this situation(what i would do), is to tell seat 5 to immediatly return the extra chip that doesnt belong to him in a stern voice. Non of this joking, non accusing, nonsense. Why would you even use a "non accusing voice" when that is exactly what he did(stole)? I'd prolly go a step further and made sure that the whole table knew that he tried to steal a chip from the novice.

There is no need to cause a big deal and make someone feel like the [censored] that he is when you have to sit at a poker table for hours on end with the guy.
If you say it "joking" then the guy gets the chip back, and thats the end of it.
Taking your action is a good way to slow the game down and piss everyone off. I hate when people make a big deal about things, the floor gets called over, the game stops, the guy is mad, your mad. There is no point in being an ass about it and making a big deal and dragging it on for hours.

I agree that some situations require a little more subtle and low key approach. For example, in this thread i insisted on NOT calling the floor as the situation wasnt appropriate,

However, the OP's situation is MUCH different. It is about a scumbag committing str8 up theft. I don't see whats so hard to understand, the guy STOLE money from someone else and its like you guys dont even give a [censored].
This scumbag commits theft and all you guys are worried about is not pissing him off and making him mad?!?! WTF?!?! Am I missing something here?
The apathy in this thread is incredible. You guys are the same people who let Kitty Genovese get stabbed/murdered/raped without batting an eye.
I hope one of these days, yo mamas get robbed and no one so much as turns their head to help. Then you'll know what it feels like. Maybe then, your attitudes will change.
