casino poker experience from recreational player
The people from my office play poker 3-4 times a year and we seem to have a good time. But recently we went as a group again to play 10/20. We have this person who said as a group we're cheating and he started swearing at us. The dealer did give him warnings but it didnt have any effect on him. I know we drive people nuts everytime we play because we dont care about starting hands and we chase to the river. Is it like this at every casino or just ours?

That will drive people nuts at any casino, but they're generally not smart enough to know that you're not exactly playing the best. I suspect that you were probably talking to each other about your hands or showing each other your cards. No?

I think part of the problem is people think we're cheating just because a group and winning.

[/ QUOTE ] If there's a lot of hands where one of you leads the flop, another one of you raises, and a person who is not a member of your group is forced to fold top pair weak kicker or such and it turns out that the two of you have bottom pair and a gutshot between you, then the player that folded the best hand is naturally going to think he was colluded against, whether you guys did it on purpose or not. That doesn't mean there is anything illegal or unethical about what you guys are doing, though, and the other players can either adjust to it or request a table change. There's no point in making a scene about it. |

Do most casinos allow swearing and have very little control over it?

Re: casino poker experience from recreational player
As long as you are not soft-playing each other (or colluding, of course) I wouldn't worry about it. If you guys raise till it's just members from your group, then check it down, you have a problem.
