Forgive my ignoramitude, what does "square up the table" mean?

[/ QUOTE ]

Move the chairs around so that everyone has an equal amount of space.

I thought I was the only person who ever asked people to do this! I guess I am a nit.

And there are people who ask for the table to be squared up when everyone is fine?

There's a word for people like that.

It starts with an R and ends with etarded.

I'm actually glad to learn this is permissible...

I think "already fine" is relative, probably to whether coach plane seats are comfortable for you or not. Or perhaps to whether there's some beanpole at your table with his elbows out like he's rebounding a basketball.

Forgive my ignorance, but what exactly does "IWTSTH" stand for?

Nits:

1. call with a PP if oop, raises AA or KK if first to act, although may LRR to be tricky.
2. limps AK UTG PF.
3. slowplays a set.
4. Open shoves with the nutz.
5. Weak bet/shoves with the nutz
6. open completes the sb then folds to a raise. Does this for an hour before finally realising it is easier to just fold.

False. These are all types of play of various skill levels. The actual poker actions have nothing to do with being a nit. It is what they say and do at the table that makes one a nit. Slowplaying a set has nothing to do with being nitty. Berating someone after the hand for slowplaying a set is very nitty.

In fact, me correcting you for having the incorrect definition of being a nit makes me a nit.

there is a difference b/t life nits and poker nits.

i call people nits for stopping at yellow lights, basically nit means reserved. In poker to me it is another classification of a player as in Tight, Loose. Nit is someone tighter than Tight(get it hehe)

Post flop you could apply it if you really wanted but i personally just stick with the aggressive or passive.
