i would say you're more of a dipsh*t than a nit or a donk. but i haven't seen you play poker so i'm speaking only from experience.

I love working people up into a frenzy enough to call me names over nothing. You take yourself way to seriously. Now that I have control of your emotions go make me a sandwich.

Petty and unlikely to illicit the expected response.

If you have to ask the question...

You probably are. Remind me to kick you in the nuts next time you are in town. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Al, Tracker is in town at all times. So let the nut kicking begin.

In some countries, it's consider an honor to be kicked in the nuts by Capone. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

From Urbandictionary.com

[ QUOTE ]
nit
gambling term. usually found in poolrooms. Refers to:
1. Someone who's so afraid to lose a bet that they have to be coddled and convinced for an hour that they're going to have a great time and probably win, too. Eventually they may play, but by the time they get on the table the stakes are so low the table-time will eat any winnings you make.
2. someone who won't play unless they have a guaranteed sure win.
3. someone who'll squeeze a dollar 'til george's eyes pop out of the paper.

[/ QUOTE ]

I like 3. I would add that a nit believes that he is maximizing his profits by playing ultra-tight and criticizing the actions of others that he disagrees with. In fact, most nit-like move are -EV over the long term [whether in terms of money or quality of life].

The results are in, its official. I am NOT a Nit.

1. I am usually the one offering prop bets to my friends on just about anything I can think of at the time. For example, I recently bet a friend $100 on a game of connect four.
2. No, not me.
3. I am hardly tight, I toke dealers and waitresses nickels for their service instead of dollars. If I am on a big winning streak dealers and waitresses LOVE me. (I work for tokes too. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img])

Glad we cleared all this up.
