Default Re: Pet Peeves during live MTTs

How about those idiots that bet the river, get called, and then refuse to show their hand? And the conservation that always follows:

"Whaddaya got?" "What do YOU got?"

"I have one pair." "Me too."

"How good a pair?" "Good pair."

"King? I have a king." "Oh, me too."

"How good's your kicker?" "I have a good kicker."

"Can you beat Jack kicker?" "Maybe, can you?"

"Do you have it?" "You tell me"

"Let's see it." "Yeah.. go ahead"

you table top pair. he looks at his cards, looks at the board, looks at the cards, thinks about mucking, looks at the cards again, finally mucks.

I just got tilted from reading these); I hate that SOOOO MUCH

I also hate when you are called on the river after raising and table your bluff. He takes 4 minutes looking at your cards, the board and his cards then finally tables 26of clubs for winning flush [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

This can be from not really being able to see the cards from across the table.
I've kind of done this before because it was all the way across and there was some glare coming off the cards and I couldn't tell what the hell they had.

Trying to see if they made a straight when you can't tell one of the cards across the table can be kind of tricky.

I found it funny.
But I think you make a mistake when you essentially play into their little stalling show-and-tell game by saying "What do YOU got?"
I will frequently just turn my cards over anyway even if it's not my turn. Getting information by seeing their cards is nice of course but I'm not going to be that insistent about it. And I really don't care that much about the rest of the table supposedly getting information on me occasionally because most will misread or misapply that information anyway.

I prefer to much face-down when I don't have to show. But it's no big deal if I don't end up doing that for the sake of moving the game along and not having to get into ridiculous discussions like that with morons.
