Re: Is this an angle or am I a nit?
I think we're mis-understanding the term NIT.
NIT is kinda/sorta a synonym for a rock.
It's taken on a bit of a negative connotation in my local group, but a good example of a NIT is someone who will blind out of a tourney just to avoid pushing with a bad hand.
I think you're thinking it has more to do with being "nit-picky".
Nit is actually an old pool room term as I know it.
Basically a player that won't gamble at all. He'd only make a game if it was one he couldnt lose.
Or as my old pool room manager would say, That guy's such a nit, he wouldn't bet a dime that the sun is gonna rise tomorrow.
