Default Re: Calling String Bets: Rude?

I should also point out that this is not a "home game" with my buddies who are also into poker. This is a "home game" with a regular group of people I am not particularly friends with, but who think poker is "fun" as they used to play all kinds of weird cards games for substantial amounts of cash before the poker boom. These are people who, for example, will bet $300 saying "a hundred on each of my jacks" and mean it EVERY TIME. I'm not about to ruin the "gamble it up" mood. I guess it depends on how you want your game to go, I'd prefer to not run off gamblers with deep pockets because they don't like how "serious" the games are. It's not as if they just don't know some of the rules, they simply choose not to follow them sometimes.
