Really talkative people who sit next to you that refuse to brush their teeth or chew gum.

weak tight player never sees the flop if there is a PFR. Finally decides to come in after about 100 hands so i put them on something decent. What do they show up with? J3o

When the person sitting to your right snap-calls your all in with QJo, with 6 people left to act, as you made a move with JTo and then goes "OH MY GOD.. I thought I was crushed". If you thought you were crushed then wtf are you cold-calling an all in with zero invested *****?

The UTG/UTG+1 raise over your big blind. There is ONE individual who has not failed to open raise my BB (from ANY position) for the past 40 times in a row. I'm not even joking. I resolved 1 time with AQ, and he had KK that one time. Slowrolled obv. I've seen him do it with total random hands, lose most of his stack continuing the bluff against other players, and even suck out with a hand like 73s. This kid celebrates everytime I lose. I hardly know him.

^I meant *left. To your left

I too steal the blinds with KK from any position

Players who dump preflop w/ JT and then complain when some drooler calls with QJ

Players who open up 90% of hands pre, for a minbet. highly exploitable and i hope they never stop , still pretty tilting though

Playing NL holdem about 600 effective, a guy raises 30 in position blinds and utg limper calls. Flop comes low and connected with two hearts, checks to raiser who bets pot and SB shoves, folds to raiser and SB flips over cards and shows a flopped straight says he wants to make a deal and offers him a $75 rebate to fold. The guy had QQ and he was always calling. The raiser takes the rebate. Sb explains to the table that he didn't want to get a bad beat from a flush. I Still can't believe it

But why would this tilt you?

whay does 600 effective mean?

i put you all in..ugh

"Effective stacks" means the smallest of all stacks involved, or the second largest in the case of more than 2 people.

So you have $1000 and player 1 has $600, the eff stack size is $600. You cannot lose more than 600 in the hand.

If you have $100,000,000 and a player has $60, "the effective stack" is $60.

If you have $1000, someone has $800, and someone has $400, the effective stack for the first two players is $800, but $400 for the shorty as he cannot lose more than $400.

New to poker?

I will ask again since I did not make it clear it was adressed to you..

But why would this tilt you?

I guess it really didn't tilt me come to think of it. Just thought it was really weird and the guy was acting like a baller but he was afraid to get his money in with the nuts.

That's not just weird. That's collusion. Plain and simple against the rules. It allows two players to raise the rest of the field out of a pot, then chop up their money. If those two idiots want to run the board multiple times that's one thing, but a flat out deal? No ****ing way.


The best variant of this is "I call you all in".

Thanks a lot idiot, now if I have the nuts I can just go "He's all in? I call", and if I'm weaker I can say "He said 'I call', that's a call" and get a ruling that way.

Dealers who won't run out the board when I call an all in by flicking in a single chip with the nuts

I have this ****ing fish covered by a mile, don't make me physically move half my stack in to the middle over some stupid formality

Also, dealers who act like they know the first thing about poker. Dude, that's the only seat at the table where you make any money and you know it

I missed it the first time. Makes, sense now.

When I'm dealing, one guy goes all in, and his opponent just flicks in a single chip without saying anything or turning up his cards to show the nuts.

Then, when I look at him with a wtf look on my face, like is that a call, is that an attempted bet after misunderstanding the action, or wtf, he then gets all pissed off for no reason other than to try and make me as a dealer look bad.

Just say you call or push in your entire stack of chips and get on with it. Nobody cares that your knowledge of the rules are superior to everyone else's and your single chip constitutes binding action or whatever.

Also, players who act like they know the first thing about dealing. Dude, your seat on the other side of the table means you can focus on playing, instead of being off-duty dealer.

People saying "i raise" when in fact they are betting (ie on the flop)

People constantly asking "how much is it to play?" when open limping in tourneys after 10 mins on the same level

The player open limping 80% of hands immediately on my right.

People theatrically throwing chips/betting like they were hitting a tennis ball.

People talking like they are Phil Ivey -dealer even asked (sarcastically) him where she can buy his book... Super lol.... Would it be too rude to say "dude if you make the money I'll double it?"

People that donate most of their chips, then double up an say "oh now I have some chips to play with"

People that after flatting a 4-b, and before seeing the flop say to you "unlucky"

Also when there are 3 people in a pot and lets say at some point players A goes all in.

Player B tanks forever and eventually folds, then Player C starts tanking...wtf surely by the time player B made his decision player C should know what to do!!

You probably make yourself look bad enough without anyone's help for the most part, but to clarify, this happens only rarely since most dealers pay enough attention to know what's going on. The way it usually goes down is I'll flick in a chip, dealer will look at me like a dog looking at a book, I'll say "I call" and he'll tell me okay, push the chips in.

This is about where I glare at him and seethe quietly while I push the money in. At some point after I flick the chip in, my cards will get turned up but they never leave my hand because God forbid some genius interprets that as a muck.

Also, I never claimed to know anything about dealing. I love all my friends who deal -- I know I could never do that job for an eight hour shift and stay sane.

I also love playing against off duty dealers because it usually means I can take my house payment off the board that month and spend the money on something else.

Modesty level: Over 9999

Playing vs. Mr. Cool at FW tourney. Guy has the cool shades, the cool headphones, the cool clothes, and is pretty much the worst player ever. He will never ever never fold top pair, no matter the situation, no matter the texture of the flop, no matter the kicker, no matter the players, NO MATTER WHAT.

I get heads up with him with top 2 ott, he bets, I shove for like 25bb. He mumbles something that I can't hear. Long silence, then I ask him, "did you call?" No answer. I ask again, he doesn't answer. Then I ask the dealer, the dealer doesn't answer. (I don't think the dealer understood what he mumbled, either) The guy then says to me in a douche frustrated tone "are you going to turn your cards over?" I finally get the dealer to confirm that he called....I turn over my cards, he finally turns over his cards after me with top set (he limped with QQ)....I lose.

Maddening.
