Default Re: Checking it down

I work in a room with a magical muck, so I understand that some places aren't standard, and it can be frustrating as someone who actually knows and respects the game to sit there and watch stuff go on that nobody will back me on preventing.

The term they use is poor, but the sort of table talk they describe is fairly standard in the Bay Area, as well. But we would never call it "angling". I try to curb the table talk as much as possible, but you can't really stop it. Tho' to openly discuss checking it down during a tournament should NEVER be allowed.
