Default Re: Things that annoy you about live poker.

Three pet peeves:

1. When someone pushes all-in for like 6 stacks of red, and then the guy with $50 behind wanting to know, "how much is it?" before he can make a decision on whether to call.

2. Players who don't respect the one-player to a hand rule. I can't stand when players who aren't in the hand speculate on what others are holding, whether the pot odds are there to make a call, what cards might complete a draw, etc.

3. Daniel Negreanu imitators.. Unlike the real guy, who is a superstar at divining information by engaging an opponent in a little chat, I can't stand the low-stakes imitators who throw out about six different possible hand holdings by an opponent to see which of them elicit a facial tick upon which appropriate action can be taken.
