Other players start offering him cash to call. They came up with $3 if he called me. [/ QUOTE ] This is very uncool. I would definately say something after the hand. |

besides the illegality of the $3 to call thing, flipping his cards face up while deciding to call is illegal as well.

If your playing serious poker then yes this is terrible and also why I don't like playing with my good friends who don't like poker but play time to time. It just drives me nuts, they play without looking at their hand, go all in a lot on nothing, try to stare you down and make certain moves, it's pretty much a mockery of the game. Either realize it's a tourny where people are just messing around for small amounts (as in when I play with those guys) or do what I did and find people who are more knowledgeable about the game and take the game more seriously.

Bad form with all players involved
[ QUOTE ] We have a 20 person, 2 table home tourney $20 buyin. Blinds are 600/1200 with 6 players left at our table. It's folded to me in the SB and I go all-in for 9,000 chips with K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. The BB has 14,000 chips and shows K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] face up while thinking. Our tourney has no time limit on decisions unless someone calls time, so he thinks for over two minutes. Other players start offering him cash to call. They came up with $3 if he called me. I didn't want to say anything at the time because then he'd know I was dominated. He ended folding, but I think that's against the rules, no? [/ QUOTE ] |

flipping his cards face up while deciding to call is illegal as well. [/ QUOTE ] Why, oh why, do people persist in believing this is the case? If the local rules say this is the rule, then fine. But if you're playing by TDA rules, your hand IS NOT DEAD. You may get a penalty, but that's a whole other thing. Regards, T |
