Re: How to handle poor poker etiquette?
Heres a thought. Impose a small fine for players doing this (get a can and each time a player does this they have to put a $1 chip in the can (the money can later be used for food/beer/chips/new cards whatever) The amount of the fine should be enough that they won't do intentionally because they thinbk its amusing, but not so muchj money that a player is going to ge upset and leave because they get hit by the fine.he fine could be progressibve (like the first time a player does it in the night its $1, the next time $2, etc.)
This will have the effect of dissuading players from doing it and also getting the other players to police it. |

We've had people call 250 pf with T9o. How much should I fine someone like that? |

Whatever you can do to encourage this type of play. |

Re: How to handle poor poker etiquette?
i think what his point is, is "if they are willing to call $250 with T9o, they don't really care about money."
Honestly, if this ^ is the case, where the players are calling all that money with crap hands, I don't think it makes a difference if someone says what they had, or what someone else might have, its meaningless in a game this donkish. |
