Default Re: Sick and [censored] tired of limpers (even if they are profitable)

Are you saying you want better players at your table???

Everyone pays the same entry fee and has the right to play their way (good or bad). You need to get used to it or play a different game.

I know I would sooner have poor players at my table and have to accept that they will sometimes suck out on me.

No, I agree, that's my point. I feel that SNGs and tourneys are profiitable and have been building my roll so far, but it's just that it's tough to watch players bet min-raise each other for an hour w/o getting frustrated after a while. I just wish I can play these things and be a little more peaceful about it.

You're playing the least intricate forms of poker at a relatively low level. Frustration will be par for the course.

Does that make madness and missing value bets because you are so used to deciding what to do against a "30 into 400" bet a double bogey?

I guess when earlier in the year when I was generally a horrible player and I flicked a pen against my plasma laptop screen in frustration, only to see the plasma crack, that was OB.
