i watch everything and say nothing - unless it borders on cheating. i just dont feel it's my job to ensure that you get 1/2 the pot with A9 against A10 when the board is AJJ109

Yet another one I disagree with. If you're thinking of mucking because you lost, that's one thing - I will not (and should not) say a word. Howver, once the hand(s) is(are) tabled, the best hand should win, regardless of whether the dealer or other players see it correctly.

In this case, not speaking up is poor etiquette. I've had times where the dealer was about to push me a pot that should have been chopped and I pointed out that it was a chop.

BIG difference with your example - accepting a pot you knew should be split when both hands were table is clearly cheating. however, if a player choses to spend time grabassing waitresses instead of playing his cards... i just can't see where i should be held responsible for his lack of attention

chances are you're just a nicer person than me
