Stars HU etiquette
Id like to clear this up as the situation keeps arising for me and others on Stars where someone is playing a fish HU and demands to continue playing HU when you sit down - with no indication from the fish that they want that. (Obviously if two players request HU its natural to respect it).
I would like the great and good of HSNL to offer their opinion on this so that either the games are respected and everyone takes their turn, or certain players who demand it as their right and whine in chat can be told to stfu and stop making it obvious to the fish whats going on. |

Re: Stars HU etiqutte
Agree with you 100%. When someone's playing HU with a fish and I sit, and they say HU please I always ask the fish, and keep playing unless fish says something. Fish are in short supply at 10/20+.

I'll only leave when they both request HU. It's annoying when someone is trying to hog a fish.

Re: Stars HU etiqutte
i agree but the rare occasion where you get a fish HU, you'd like the respect to continue as well, espec after theyve taken you for a buyin or so already

Imo it comes down to whatever youd want if you had a fish HU.
If your happy for others to join then do it yourself. |

If you wanna play fish hu go sit on a hu table at FTP... |

Re: Stars HU etiqutte
From the [censored] thread-
/I always just ask both players. I never request hu and for ppl to leave unless I kno the guy I am playing prefers hu. I think doing anything else is just dumb imo. |

Re: Stars HU etiqutte
Im not playing 10/20 NL but prefer HU alot on stars and I expect players to sit out when I ask it to be heads up. I also do the same when I sit in on a game and any one person requests it. Since stars doesnt offer HU tables (bastards) I think if one player wants to play HU he shouldn't be forced not to. Also, if the "fish" didnt want to play HU he wouldn't of sat down. If the other person requests it not to be HU and wants to play a 6max/FR then other players should be able to play. If fish is indifferent/unresponsive it shoud stay HU IMHO.
Again this is at lower stakes and mostly PLO where the fish are plentiful. |

Re: Stars HU etiqutte
my friend tjbentham sat in when bet2win was playing a total unknown probable huge fish, who expressed no interest at all in keeping it hu and continued to play 3handed. bet2win demanded hu repeatedly in chat and when it wasnt respected he in started going crazy and calling tjb lots of things and insulting his integrity. wtf?
then some hu-hitandrunning-scumbag who has not shown any integrity or respect for hu etiquette himself on many occasions, "ifihaditall", was actually backing bet2win up on this ridiculous claim that he has some sort of right to play fish hu just because he got there first and asked. they went off in chat for ages to tjb like a couple of faux-selfrighteous scumbags looking out for their own interest |
