Canary3 1 Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 Even though I doubt the OP is real, I think this is a decent idea for a thread.My biggest pet peeve is probably bad beat stories. Followed closely by assumed good players who claim to not like playing against bad players. Link to post Share on other sites
king_tanner 84 Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 Basically when anyone criticizes or berates someone's game at a live 3/6 limit game, or in a low stakes live tournament. It makes me crazy.I play in this 3/6 dealers choice game where everyone berates each other which is ok most of the time since it is a local game and people know each other. The cardroom is in kind of a shitty area of town though, and sometimes shitty people come in to play.One time a guy with some mental disability was playing and was making some weird moves. Another guy at the table decides to berate him for like an hour straight about the way he was playing. I wanted to kill the guy who was doing the berating. The floorman finally made him leave after waiting way too long to fix the situation. This happened about 3 years ago, and it made me so mad I still haven't forgot about it.

FARGOpokerND 22 Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 When dealers give you death glares because after the round of betting is complete and they go to rake in the chips that were just bet, you don't push them up to within 6 inches from the pot so they actually have to stretch just a TINY bit to grab them.

Usually it's only the fat dealers that complain about this.Not too many other peeves, but:Had one dealer at low-limit game (4/8, I think) that would try to guess your hand at showdown, if you everyone else folded to your bet he would guess your hand, and sometimes if you mucked a losing hand. Drove me nuts. I understand that he is a poker player and wanted to sharpen and showoff his reading skills while he worked, but I didn't want him giving the bad players ideas of what I had (he was usually right). Also hate the "all day" phrase in poker that some people say after they bet/raise. Still have no clue what that one means. Link to post Share on other sites

I understand that he is a poker player and wanted to sharpen and showoff his reading skills while he worked, but I didn't want him giving the bad players ideas of what I had (he was usually right).You should have asked him politely to stop guessing out loud in my opinion. He's the dealer, he can make a guess in his head, then take a peak at your mucked cards and deal the next hand. Link to post Share on other sites
Balloon guy 158 Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 Calling for a _ball after you are all in and way behind.Just because you use a fratboy style name, doesn't mean you didn't stick in all your money with only 3 outs.Dealers who follow you home begging for you to teach them.Get Play Poker Like the Pros and study, there are no shortcuts man.

MaxStPolish 4 Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 I've come to realize that I hate everything about poker, except the game itself. Turns out I have the same relationship with baseball too.I think that response really encapsulates a whole lot. That's kinda neat. Link to post Share on other sites
FCP Bob 1,321 Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 live:- small talk at the tables.. i try to be as friendly as possible, but i really dont want to see a picture of your freaking kids or hear about your trip to paris-You wouldn't have liked playing in the games with Daniel back in the charity casino days in Toronto. We used to talk non-stop about our hockey pool since a few of the regular players were in the pool as well as a few of the dealers. One player used to plead with us to shut the **** up in a friendly way. Link to post Share on other sites
