Re: \"Seat open\" pet peeve
Notice that the ones that do this are very close to sitting out/leaving or doing something else to break up the game.
Annoying as it is, it's actually minor compared to other things that go on at a table. b |

Re: \"Seat open\" pet peeve
Whats even more annoying is when your on a wait list for a game and have been waiting for 2hrs only to find out that an incompetent dealer never called the floor for the open seat when a seat has been open for 20mins.

Re: \"Seat open\" pet peeve
Thank You Daytripping.
I am a dealer and I see it all the time. Whats funny is I have the loudest voice in the Bellagio cardroom and these idiots don't notice that I have called the seat open. I usually also get a "heads up" from the floor or a verbal confirmation via microphone from them too. Your comments were right on the money. |

Re: \"Seat open\" pet peeve
Most people DESPISE playing shorthanded, and don't even like to be down 1 or 2 people.
A lot of these guys won't even get near a table until there are seven people at it. Anything less, and they suddenly have to take a walk for a few minutes. |

Re: \"Seat open\" pet peeve
i think you will find that the more interaction you have with people, the more you will realize that most people should be killed.

I think it's just a reluctance to have to play the blinds more often, even though that's completely irrelevant since you're odds of winning the pot on a given deal go up with each player that leaves. I think a lot of players just have a cheap streak running through them, which is really pretty funny when it's people playing 30/60 with a couple grand in front of them. |

Re: \"Seat open\" pet peeve
Yeah, I noticed this as well. I don't see what the bid deal is if a seat is open for a couple minutes.
I remember one person at the table saying he wanted a full table so that the pot could be bigger. Are you kidding me? At minimum, a $2 bigger pot. |
