Pet peeves

LuckyPaul wrote I agree you want these players in the game but it drives me nuts on how someone can think such a bad call is a good call just because they luck out on the river.

It's always a good call when you luck out. After all you'd have a hard time making money off these guys if they played correctly. But then again at a table of loose passives in limit he may have had the odds to call and hit his lucky card. After all if there are 8 limpers at $2, and your in late position with a gut shot and now there's a bet and 5 callers you should be in. A $26 pot for $2, even tho you are a long shot you hang around. It's the calling 4 bets cold then hitting that's not the good call.

no Im talking no limit and I make sure I dont give odds.

Dealers having to remind morons each and every time when it's their turn to post their blinds.

Similar to another point - the poor use of "nh" - someone makes a bad play and gets lucky, and gets the NH - either B&M or online
B&M - the table coach

Tight ass players who don't tip the dealer.

Casino Niagara takes this concept and turns it into an art form.. I've been at tables with empty seats for 40 minutes and a 30 person list.

I like Brantford now with the remote controls. The dealer is the one to advance the list and there are 9 players at the table to remind him to do so. Once it is up on the plasma the waiting list players can see they're up and don't even have to wait for the floor to announce it.

Cool, now if we can get the other casinos to follow suit. That sounds excellent.

Casino Niagara should send their floor people and their dealers for a short walk over the bridge to Seneca. The floor people there have a very good handle on the table activity

(aware of necro)

1. The guy who takes forever to fold AJ, KJ, KQ, QJ, and then proceeds to tell the players who are still in the hand when the flop hits that "Neither of you hit that board" and "I folded a VERY GOOD drawing hand".
2. The same guy who thinks 15 outs with 1 card to come somehow makes him a slight favourite, and then proceeds to go on a 5 minute rant when he doesn't hit.
3. To the attention-seekers who splash the pot, throw their chips in the air when calling/betting, and in general flick their chips into the pot in ridiculous ways, go screw yourself.
4. The guys who are not in the hand and yell "AIYAA" or "FK" when the flop/turn/river hits so everybody knows they folded what would have been some bullshit 3 of a kind with their 95o.
5. The guys who go all-in blind in an effort to make the game exciting, but instead destroy the game by shoo-ing away all the people who are just trying to have a nice game.
6. The guys who constantly complain about how unlucky they are and how everything is "SO SICK" yet always have to be reminded to post their blinds because they're playing some puzzle game on their phone.
7. The guys who analyze everybody's actions at the table, OUT LOUD.
8. Players that smell like shit, also players who smoke and come back to the table immediately.
9. The guys who don't pay attention to whether or not it's been straddled, call, then take their chips back and fold, then make a big fuss about why he can't keep his $2.
10. When the blinds agree to check down with $4 in the pot. smh.

He did say "aware of necro", if that matters. If that means what I think it does. Not something sicker and more disgusting.

yeah, i hate good games too

Card Dead

1. People who take up a seat with a huge list and are never at the table. Usually off playing craps or something and come back every 20 mins or so just so they don't get dbl blinded and get booted. Post and fold, then off again.

2. People who stink. Whether it's somebody who doesn't bother showering or wearing deodorant, or has breath that smells like a dead rodent, or my fave, people who fart at the table.

3. Time wasters, esp in a session game. People who play every hand like they are on TV and tank for 90 seconds before folding their J4 off. Dealers who are morbidly slow and just don't care or aren't able to speed up.

Can you tell I play at Fallsview?
