Default Re: Why do players think they can do this when not in a hand?

I usually play alot more online than live. I just played live at the Borgata yesterday and if I wasn't in the hand I would ask for chip counts just to get to the next hand. Somebody would go all in and the person facing the call decision would sit there and look like they didnt know what was going on. I like live play alot better but it is alot slower than online.

Yes it is. Stop asking for chip counts when you aren't in the hand - the universe doesn't revolve around you.

please tell me your joking! [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

this is the absolute WORST poker etiquette EVER. how many people yelled at your and gave you dirty looks? did you also tell people to "call" when another player went all in, and you weren't in the hand to speed up play?

While I agree w/ Photoc, there is something I hate even more. It really gets under my skin for some reason.
It really pisses me off when you have a guy at the table who folds PF, then asks the dealer to "run it out" after the hand ends on the flop or turn. Then what happens is that other people at the table start asking to have it done on hands that they fold PF. IMO, the dealer should never run it out for anybody that folds PF. I hate saying something because as a player because I don't want to do anything to ruin the mood of the other players. A happy table is a loose table.
