![]() What is the general thought on speaking on a cell phone while at the table? |

![]() I think it's OK as long as it's distracting the person talking. I love it when bookies try to play poker and take action at the same time. On the other hand, if it bothers you, grab a walkman and sing along with Free Bird. That seems to do the trick. |

![]() A few nights ago, I was playing in a NL satellite at Foxwoods when one of the players took a call early in the first round, and was reminded that it wasn't allowed.If it only serves as a distraction to the player using it, I'm fine with it; otherwise, I don't care for the idea. |

![]() If someone gets or makes a call on a mobile phone at the poker table, the correct thing to do is to conspicuously turn around and look to see if someone behind you is peeking at your cards. If there is, or even if there isn't, remind the person on the phone that only one person is allowed to play a hand. Another option in Las Vegas cardrooms is to say, "Hey, I thought using cell phones was illegal this close to the sports book!" |

![]() Well, I do it occasionally. Many cardrooms don't allow it however, and if you play any gambling games in the pit it is not allowed. |

![]() If you get a call while at the table and it cannot be handled in a couple of sentences, leave the table or at least sit out the hands. Never, make a call while at the table. |

![]() I consider it poor manners, but then again I am a grumpy old guy. |
