Re: Writing Squeeze in the chat, do u think it\'s against the rules?
 

For sure is a vialoation of the rules, it is also violating rule number 8. You are giving information to the players still to act. Why can't you wait until every one makes his decision, and then you make the comment?

The fact that you do it before the hand ends, it makes me think not only that it might affected the play of the hand, but also that you wanted it to affect the play of the hand. Am I wrong? After all, I think normally people want all ins to be called, because after that you get a player pissed and another player happy, more relaxed and perhaps less concentratred (of course, unless one of them is a clear fish and he may leave the table). Plus, you gain additional information regarding both players.

In both cash games and tournaments, if there are more than two players left in a pot, players (in the hand or not) may not chat anything that might reasonably be interpreted as affecting the play of the hand. For instance, suppose players A, B, and C are in a hand. A bets, and B is next to act. C may not chat, "I'm going to fold" (whether he intends to fold or not).

Whatever, all the dude said was that he got squeezed. whoop de doo. You guys are making mountains out of absolutely nothing. He's saying that with the players yet to act behind him he can no longer continue with the hand, it has nothing to do with the holding of the reraiser.

I'm trying to figure out if you don't know what the poker term "squeeze" means or just don't understand the basic rule of poker that was violated.

If it's your turn to act then you can say whatever you want in the chat. Wouldn't do it every time though. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

It is unethical to make comments on what you believe someone holds while others are still to act. Pretty standard.

Both. I don't think he knows what a squeeze is. And I don't think he understands why you can't blurt this out at that moment.

FWIW, I almost always say, "whatever," when nits want to complain about technical talking violations, but this isn't one of those. It can influence the action, and in fact in seems like the comment was intended to influence the action. If I were the other player, how could it be interpreted as anything other that OMG CALL THAT SOB THAT JUST BLEW ME OUT OF THE POT HE HAS NOTHING. CALL CALL CALL.
