\"Coming over the top\" Poker Talk
I was under the impression that when you used the phrase "coming over the top" you were suppose to be talking about a raise in no-limit, not just a 1 bet raise in limit....
cause like 4-5 people at my table kept saying it last night and it was driving me crazy. maybe they just loved trying to be really dramatic?

You didn't think they sounded really cool using the hip lingo they learned watching Phil Gordon on Celebrity Poker.

Re: \"Coming over the top\" Poker Talk
I just happen to get really annoyed and correct everything someone says wrong in my head (nice diction, eh?), and sometimes out loud...
"ohh man I can't believe you reraised me with that hand" "I didn't REraise you.... you bet and I raised, get it right you mother [censored] idiot!!!!!" (well all except the last part)

Re: \"Coming over the top\" Poker Talk
I really HATE talking about poker at the low limit tables because all it would end up being is me correcting everyone on their horrible horrible play or listening to bad beat stories.
I listened for 3 hours last night as some guy droaned on and on about perfectly mundane bad beats he experienced "I play playing a tourney online and I flopped two pair and the guy got a straight on the river" blah blah blah SHUT UP! Thank god I had a ton of chips I could play with and stack in cool designs so I could be occupied.

But my theories are never any good, so just disregard it.

Re: \"Coming over the top\" Poker Talk
Good theory. However, I don't play $2-4 because I don't have the money to move up.
Also "high limit" at my casino is $6-12. They have a board for $10-20, but I've only seen it run once.
