Default Re: is it rude to buy in for $300 in a 4-8 game?

If your pile takes up a significant portion of the table (see the pic above), you are a tool. How is the dealer supposed to get cards to the player in the 9 seat?

Tell that tool in the pic that I'll be impressed when his pile of black chips is that big.

There was a guy who played in Tunica when I was dealing there who bought in for his whole BR. In white chips. Every night. Usually 2-3 dimes' worth. It would take him a half-hour to get his chips from the cage to the table, unracked, and stacked--and that's if the table was near the cage.

Of course, there was the occasional spill during this process, which always made me laugh like hell. Then people would look at me when I LOL'd, as if I was the jerk.

Buy in for $100,000 if you want, I don't care. Just use high denomination chips. Don't hog half the table for your little vanity display.
