it obviously annoys you. why bother pretending you find it funny?

i think it can be generalized that poker players :
a.) hate when others say theyre the best player of their home game, despite it being the truth
b.) pretend not to hate it, and instead say "they find it really funny"

Seriously though, get a life. That advice is worth much more than you'll ever win in poker.

good thing i made another 50 dollar bet that writing I was the best player would inevitably annoy some douche who knows neither me or the people I play with so much he has to post a couple of times with nothing useful to add....

I think he finds annoying you funnier than your bragging...

Seriously though - the info is actually a little relevant to the story - but it does come across as a little humorous...I've said it in posts too so I understand.

And as for him getting a life...aren't you the one who dropped $100 prop bets on a 2+2 thread?

Aren't you in college? Don't you have books to buy or something?

You sure told him. I bet you're the best player in your home game.

They do that every single raise in the Cincinnati Kid..... and it's even stated 'no string bets' but then again, no limit really meant no limit in that movie... not just table stakes (ie. I'll bet twice your net worth.... you can't call? tough luck)

Bad practice that you need to unlearn.

Announce the amount before you put ANY chips out there, and you can go back to your stack ONCE to complete your announced bet

Am I the only one that finds the guy at the table who "catches" the string bets (and then procedes to educate everyone what a string bet is) more anoying than the guy who actually makes the string bet?
