Do you let someone pee on your shoe and then believe them when they tell you it is raining? Your friend needs to relax. The only thing I care about is if someone tries to look at somebody's cards on a fold. Good luck!

Default Re: Poker Etiquette....?

Here are robert rules (see bold area):

POKER ETIQUETTE
The following actions are improper, and grounds for warning, suspending, or barring a violator:

Deliberately acting out of turn.

Deliberately splashing chips into the pot.

Agreeing to check a hand out when a third player is all-in.

Reading a hand for another player at the showdown before it has been placed faceup on the table.

Telling anyone to turn a hand faceup at the showdown.

Revealing the contents of a live hand in a multihanded pot before the betting is complete. Revealing the contents of a folded hand before the betting is complete. Do not divulge the contents of a hand during a deal even to someone not in the pot, so you do not leave any possibility of the information being transmitted to an active player.

Needlessly stalling the action of a game.

Deliberately discarding hands away from the muck. Cards should be released in a low line of flight, at a moderate rate of speed (not at the dealer's hands or chip-rack).

Stacking chips in a manner that interferes with dealing or viewing cards.

Making statements or taking action that could unfairly influence the course of play, whether or not the offender is involved in the pot.

Using a cell phone at the table.

I don't consider that "unfair" at all - it's the psychological part of the game. "Unfair" to me would be something like someone out of the hand talking someone else into calling an all-in when he he was originally going to fold.

I am quoting Robert's Rules here thats all. I still wouldnt want anyone talking about the hand either. It was still the other players fault for believing the guy in the first place.
