I've played over 100K hands online but have never went to a B&M ring game. Next week sometime is my first.

any advice?

I posted recently about my first B&M experience at Harrah's in New Orleans. I managed all of these screw ups:

1. First time I was in the BB, I mucked to no raise (where's the damn pop-up telling me it's free to check?)

2. I got busted for a (accidental) string-raise. Dealer wouldn't let me raise. Said I put the chips in in two motions. I didn't think so, and the player beside me thought the dealer was being a bit of a prick but...after that I verbalized my raises.

3. One hand with a four-flush on the board I had the K of the suit and was a leeetle slow turning over my other card, dealer barks out "You have to show both cards sir".

But I had a bunch of fun, the guys I was playing with were pretty cool (and terrible, terrible players), and I won (which makes up for a lot).
