Things you hate at the poker table
Here are things I hate at the poker table:
1)People who berate fish for making bad calls/plays then later make the same bad plays themselves 2)People who justify why the played the way they did 3)People who use their mouth to try to get under other player's skin 4)Slow players who dont follow the action 5)Fake out players, who try to pretend they dont understand whats going on 6)Foul language, the mis-use of the word "buddy" as a non-offensive substitute for xxxxx. 7)People who cry when they lose 8)People who think they are good players but arent 9)People who throw cards at the dealer or across the table when they lose 10)People who act like the game owes them something 11)People who think everyone else sucks at the game but them 12)Anyone who brings thuggishness to the table and makes implications that this has any relevance 13)People who dont shower/stink/fart Cant think of anymore right now. Feel free to add. -J |

Re: Things you hate at the poker table

This is good. 2)People who justify why the played the way they did Don't care. 3)People who use their mouth to try to get under other player's skin This depends on the degree. 4)Slow players who dont follow the action Agree. 5)Fake out players, who try to pretend they dont understand whats going on This is bad. This might be something I bring up with the floor. 6)Foul language, the mis-use of the word "buddy" as a non-offensive substitute for xxxxx. Again, I might notify the floor. 7)People who cry when they lose Don't care. 8)People who think they are good players but arent I will support them. They are obviously just getting unlucky. 9)People who throw cards at the dealer or across the table when they lose Don't like this but I'll leave it to the dealer. 10)People who act like the game owes them something Don't care. 11)People who think everyone else sucks at the game but them Support them. Tell them I am on a lucky streak. 12)Anyone who brings thuggishness to the table and makes implications that this has any relevance Not sure what this means but it doesn't sound good. 13)People who dont shower/stink/fart Might cause me to move tables if bad enough. Some of my own. - Dealers who are rookies or are not taking charge of the table. Slow dealers. - Drunks. Friendly ones are good, obnoxious ones are not. - Uncomfortable chairs. - Not enough room to sit comfortably. i.e. some personal space incursion. - Ugly servers. - Sitting near a main traffic area and getting jostled. |

Re: Things you hate at the poker table
i hate these people who think the poker table is open mic night at the local comedy club, like 99% of the jokes i hear at the table are unoriginal or not funny at all.

[ QUOTE ]
2)People who justify why the played the way they did [/ QUOTE ] Keep your eyes and ears open on this one. Look around the table to see how others react to their explanations. They're telling you how they play. Which is really helpful in new rooms where everyone knows each other. Shouldn't these 2 go together: [ QUOTE ] 8)People who think they are good players but arent 11)People who think everyone else sucks at the game but them [/ QUOTE ] I could care less about either. Poker isn't a pissing match. Those that think it is usually lose. Thing that irks me at times is the absolute pettiness and selfishness some people show. But, like: [ QUOTE ] 1)People who berate fish for making bad calls/plays then later make the same bad plays themselves [/ QUOTE ] I see this(double standards) in most aspects of life and not just at the table. b |

Re: Things you hate at the poker table
those that throw cards and blame the dealer for their bad luck are the ones i dislike the most and are the most distracting.
second worst are those that are on a phone then entire time they play at the table, esp. those with that cockroach looking thing in their ear. eating while playing is mildly offensive. |

Re: Things you hate at the poker table
In general I hate all poker players that play in casinos. Maybe not so much at say the bellagio where theres some real games. But here in MI I'll walk into a casino and it's the same damn faces day in and day out trying to grind away at 2-5 NL thinkin they are pros. They berate online players and little do they know a good online player will make 10 fold what they are in half the time. They're just pissed they can't do it. They tried it once and lost and now they sit around the table and gossip about how it's rigged. I HATE THAT
