I take it this was 4-8 or lower? This can be common in most smaller rooms. Wait 'til they play this way blind. What would be shady is the guy with 82os playing and jamming to the river, then folding for 1 bet.

Because he is a good player who is not retarded that looks at 82off then raises his friend with callers in between them then he quietly goes away on the flop. Its one thing if he were a maniac and thats what i thought at first, but when i started paying attention he would only pull those crazy raises when he was trapping people.

Props and friends/family doesn't always mean much. I used to play in a room just like this. (sonny's in Fed way) Easy, you play like it's a maniac game.

Its not the fact that they are props and play with their family its when they trap people preflop, start a raising war between eachother on the flop then when everyone gets out they check down.

I know plenty of people with casino experience who don't understand poker but think they do. Including dealers and floor people. Some thought the 3-6 table over last x-mas at the 2+2 meeting were cheating. I actually took the time to talk to the dealer about it and let them know what was happening. It took awhile to finally smooth it over a bit. Which is common when you see an overaggressive, multi-maniacal table.

I know what your talking about there. Ive had people complain that me and a few friends were being to friendly at the table. Im sure to a fish who is losing it looks like collusion or something b/c we all knew eachother. Im apt enough to tell the difference though.

All things aside that game was pretty good. It was 4/8 full kill with overs. I would just not sit in between the 3-4 guys that i thought did that (they were either dealers or props there too) and im not foolish enough to call raises with marginal hands with people left to act behind me. I heard that it just got shut down though.
