Re: What Constitutes Internet Table Talk
So I'm playing in a home game, 10 players, NL..
I have middle pair vs a complete LAG who pushes on a flushed board. I never touch my chips, I look up at him and say, "waddya have?" A complete angle shoot/just being a smart a$$. He proceeds to tell me he has the nuts. I instantly pitch my cards in the muck, and apologize explaining I didn't think he would tell me. I only had middle pair and had no intention of calling. Needless to say this did not go over very well. Angle shooting is just plain wrong and I will go out of my way not to do it, and to report anyone I see doing it to support. Heck sometimes I'll tick a table coach off so he cusses at me and then report it to support...Thats the extent of my angle shooting now. |

I don't see anything wrong with that?

Re: What Constitutes Internet Table Talk
Well when I said "Waddya have?" He obviously thought I was calling and tabled his hand.
Caught me completely offguard. I looked like an ass, deservedly because I was just being funny and it ended up not being so funny when he thought I called and tabled his hand. Whoops. Anyone know how NL works in a B&M in this situation? |

Re: What Constitutes Internet Table Talk
Totally the other guy's fault. Had you said, "I call" he might have a beef.

Re: What Constitutes Internet Table Talk
Yeah, this wasnt your fault at all. You weren't making any move to call, and you clearly had no intent to get him to say that. He should know better than to say stuff like that.
