Biggest B&M Pet Peeves

[revots33]

I've only played live a few times, but I've seen a couple of players get annoyed and muck a losing hand by flinging their cards and actually hitting the dealer with them. That's obnoxious. Boy, you must have some serious self-restraint to deal poker for a living.

The guy who colors up everytime he gets a few chips in front of him, and only leaves himself with 3 bets worth of the chips used in the game. This player always is terrible and winds up playing colored up chips soon after slowing the game down, and will pester the dealer to buy back the higher value whenever he wins a pot. I [censored] hate that guy.

I ran into a guy at the 2-4 at Harrah's AC Saturday afternoon.

He took about 30 seconds for every decision. It took alot of restraint for me to not go ballistic.

On the one hand he took atleast 1 minute, probably close to 90 seconds, and then finally folded his hand.. I was ready to take his cowboy hat and pull it down over his fat head.

Maybe you should ask PhatCasino if he plays in the same casino as you do?

I play mostly in a 5-150 spread limit game, so the bet can vary in size quite a bit, it is generally played as a red chip game and with the rare green chip. So with that said...

People that stack out a 100 bet in piles of two!

People that throw their chips on the table with other people's throw chips before the dealer can stack them so that the dealer has to stop the game and count the chips that aren't even in the pot yet!

People that can not look at a neatly stacked bet and tell how much is there.

When you say raise "100" put out the called amount and then stack out 100 more and the dipshit you are HU with asks "How much more to me?"

My biggest pet peeve by far is when someone bets on the river, I call, and they delay showing their hand and say something like, "Can you beat an ace?" You bet, I call, you show. It's not very difficult. A variant of this that is just as bad is when they only show one card.

Any time someone asks for a new setup when there is nothing wrong with the cards.

Donk playing for the $60-min buy-in at 1/2 NL (all white meat I should add). Finally gets a monster, tries to peel a Benjamin off the roll sitting behind his stack when the river comes.

including the fuckers who hide their cards under their hand(s) and then blow a gasket when you ask that they make their cards visible.

Played against one guy at Borg last week who still had his chips way out in front of his cards after being told three or four times....

A funny twist on this is when I'm folded out of the hand but I put my hands down in on the table front of my chips while observing the play (it's just seems comortable for me) and when the action gets to my end the dealer stops, stares, waits, and waits, then points at me like I'm supposed to act. I usually just chuckle and say "check". This has happened on numerous occasions. I guess it's maybe a bad habit of mine but the dealers really need to pay closer attention to the action.

My biggest pet peeve is when people get mad if other people stop and think. Now I don't think everyone should take a couple minutes to make a decision but if someone has a big decision to make I don't mind giving the player 30 seconds to think about it.
