saying the word call in a sentence - Page 2 - Poker Card Room

I heard of a kid with turrets syndrome in my local poker room who keeps saying "all-in" over and over again. So when he plays, they give him the all-in button and he has to use the button when he want to go all in.

Ruling here?

yeah. dont turn over your hand until they put money in the pot.

Ive gotten past worrying about angleshoots, because 98% of them can be avoided by taking a breath and counting to 5. if youre in such a hurry to show everyone you have THE NUTS then youre gonna open yourself up to angles.

This is 100% False.

See Daniel Negreanu.

Do you think Negreanu is talking because he can't help himself?

I think he talks naturally. "Sometimes" he'll dramatize his talking to make for better TV but I really believe he likes to talk a lot.

Then your previous post referencing Daniel Negreanu to disprove someone's point about having diarrhea of the mouth being an indication someone may not be a good player is moot, DUCY?
