Dirtydutch 8 Posted June 30, 2005 Share Posted June 30, 2005 I think this could get interesting.For me, the notion that at least some of my profit--which will be spent wholly on materialistic things like clothes, etc.--comes from gambling addicts. A sad but necessary reality that all players must realize at some point.I find it funny that the only difference between a poker legend and a loser, gambling addict is skill. If Brunson were crappy at poker, he’d still make ludicrous wagers, but he'd lose them. Link to post Share on other sites

Darkfall 0 Posted June 30, 2005 Share Posted June 30, 2005 People who slow roll after you turn your hand over, they look at you, their cards, the board, then finally flip over their hand. :roll:This is personally my biggest pet peeve in live games. Just flip over your censored cards. Link to post Share on other sites

pbwl11 0 Posted June 30, 2005 Share Posted June 30, 2005 The grinding away and sitting at the table (or computer) for hours and hours, and have a small profit to show for it, or to be down a bit.One time I played 5/10 at the B&M for 15 hours (Hey, I was on vacation and had nothing better to do since the weather sucked outside.) :-) After all that playing, I was up exactly $25. Oh well, as they say, any profit is a good profit. :wink: Link to post Share on other sites

DCWildcat 0 Posted June 30, 2005 Author Share Posted June 30, 2005 Along the line of bitter old people...Old people stuck in their ways. I had one go off on me for raising in the BB after there were 5 limpers (I had KK). He said it was rude and it slowed the game down. I explained that I was making my decisions based on expected value within accepted poker etiquette, not forgoing edges because of convenience. He immediately cashed out, and everyone else at the table looked at me like I was the biggest asshole ever.Others explain how they "just don't know how to play [insert trash hand here]", and that they call with anything suited.

They piss me off because eventually the young hotshot maniacs will realize thier play sucks, but these geezers at casinos still haven't figured it out in the 20+ years they've been playing, that's why they're sitting 2/4 limit and giving everyone else dirty looks. They treat the dealers like crap, never tip, and calls the floor manager down every 5 minutes. THAT slows the game down. Link to post Share on other sites
