Re: Eating At the Table -- Yes or No?
[ QUOTE ]
I don't allow it when I host. People had been showing up with burritos, pizza, sausage subs, and eating them at the table while playing cards. No more. I also don't allow eating at the table of anything that is greasy, like potato chips. I don't mind pretzels, but anything that gets your hands dirty, I don't want at the table. I like to keep my table, chips, and cards, clean of that stuff.
Am I being reasonable or not?

The more fun and enjoyable you make the game the better for all. People like to eat that is why casinos offer food. I would have food and use plastic cards and clean my chips regularly while being vigilant about supplying plenty of towels and encouraging players to only touch cards or chips with clean hands.
In my game ($5 $10 NL) the big winner from the previous week brings food and 2nd winner stocks the fridge. The amounts spent are a fraction of the money won and creates a good feeling for all.
