Everybody has done this, even the ones who've said you were out of line. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

(Don't do it again.)

((or screw the 'Net guy with the sunglasses, which is my preferred opinion))

Ruling right.
You wrong.
Hope your attitude toward the two players involved wasn't the real reason you opened your mouth.

Re: Am I out of line here?
 

Yes the ruling was right.

Yes you were way out of line.

Yes I would want to wait for you outside and kick your a**.

Next time you're in a big pot and show down two pair
and your opponent tries to muck you want his neighbor
to point out his straight?

Id have observed the rule that says, "One player to a hand", and kept my mouth shut--even if the player on my left was my wife.

I have never done this.

I have even mildly admonished a player who tried to suggest to me what I should do.


I am in 3 seat, opponent is in 8 or 9 seat.
I have AA with no club, board has 4 clubs.
We check the river I believe.

she turns over her hand and it takes me a little while before I let go of my cards because I'm straining to see across the table to see what she has.
She had spades but made a straight which still beat me.
But from that far across the table it can be hard to see so I wanted to make sure I was beat before I mucked my AA.

Some player not involved in the hand informs me that if I have a club then I should show my hand because I win.

Dealer and I both inform him that he shouldn't be doing that.
The lady who won the hand didn't seem to mind that he was trying to help me read the board and win the hand.

I don't think the guy believed or understood what the dealer and I were telling him about his 'help' being really inappropriate.

Dealer pays her.
Security grabs her and the dealer and accuse them of cheating.
"Mr Big Mouth" might have saved you a lot of trouble.

Nah doubt it. That was the islands. You'd be surprised how they play there.

Best way to use the rules to help the guy out, and then nobody can claim you're helping him.

In a case like this, how you say it is more important than what is said.

Saying you have the best hand is against the rules, pointing out that since he showed you, he must now show everyone is following the rules. They both have the same outcome, but former is wrong and the latter is correct.

Re: Am I out of line here?
 

Yeah, you messed up a little.

I have accidentally done the same thing, just by muttering "nice hand" in a tone of voice that indicates I expect their hand is good.

It was a mistake, but anybody who threatens violence over $200 earned the bad karma. [censored] him, and try not to do it again. Certainly sounds like you didn't do it maliciously.

Re: Am I out of line here?
 

just table the damn cards and theres no problem.
