Please leave the B&Ms and play online

[toots]

All these "Why should I tip" posts have prompted me to say the following:

Please play online instead!

Why:

1) So that the table waits will be shorter for the rest of us

2) No tipping necessary online

3) Your finely honed social skills will fit in much better online

4) When you put on your shades and do the icy staredown thing, the worst that'll happen is someone will "zzzzzz" you

5) No one will ever have to know that you look like a douchebag as well as act like one

6) You'll be much less likely to catch an elbow in the ribs from some hungry dealer who'd like to make minimum wage

Thank you toots for putting into words what I was thinking last night.

I would love to go to Zoltri's Cheap Bastard Cafe and tell my waitress that her boss told me I didn't have to tip because I am a professional.

7) You can make over 4x what you're making in the B&M with less of a bankroll.

8) If you have an affiliate, in addition to your poker winnings you can see $2000 magically appear in your account every month for doing absolutely nothing.

But there is a problem with your rationale!

They dont get the satisfaction that comes with acting the way they do and intimidating the other players to the point that all the fish leave, the dealers hate them, and management is appaled by them! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

As I said before...If you dont like it...Dont let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.

I posted this in the other thread. I thought you might enjoy the read.

I've also read this entire thread. I tried my best to refrain. I play 10-20 and 20-40 regularly. $1 a pot at "our" level doesn't hurt near as bad as $1 a pot at 2-4, 3-6, 4-8 ect. Tipping in poker is a part of life. Tip or don't. I could care less what you do. Let me toss this scenario out at you. There are 2 hotel rooms left for the night at the casino your playing in. The floor knows your a total stiff because, they just know those things. Your getting tired and ask for a room. Do you think your getting one of those rooms? If you do your sorely mistaken. You want to go eat? Been playing 12 hours but they already comped you once 10 hours ago? Buy your own dinner. You were already comped once today. You get up from the table to go eat. The dealer, that you've been stiffing all day happens to throw an extra button out there for you. You come back to find someone in your seat. Bottom of the list buddy. Getting the picture now? Heaven forbid you don't protect your cards in 1 or 10 seat. Ohhh, sorry sir. I thought you mucked those. ooooops. Shall I go on? I can think of quite a few more. $1 a pot going to kill you? I can think of quite a few ways it sure can help.
