Re: sweet angle
he's betting but it looks inadvertent - he's pretending it's just a count
Therefore when the dealer says "the bet is 4500" he can throw a hissy about betting to try to look weak. |

[/ QUOTE ] Remember, this isn't Vegas, and that the line on the felt is a true commitment line. Therefore, even action out of turn (such as mucking, or more commonly betting out of turn) usually stands. I say usually, cause this is poker after all, not an exact science... Now, in this instance the player was def. doing it on purpose, but the dealer was none too sharp and didn't mention anything, one way or another. |

Re: sweet angle
first that is an absurd rule even if your not in vegas.
I wouldn't play in a room like this because I would have to assume the rest of the rules are equally absurd. |

Re: sweet angle
MrX with the TT checks?
Opponent asks for chip count? MrX counts his chips over the "line"? That it? It is not MrX's turn. How can it be construed as a bet? |
