Okay, the heading is a bit harsh, mostly for fun and to draw attention. I'm playing a BM 2/5 NLH cash game. There's four of us in a limped pot. The card room is doing some sort of specials with the football game. Something unique happens and they throw $100 into the pot. So the pot goes from $20 to $120. One guy checks the next guy shoves. I'm looking for some information and say, "Are you doing this because they added 100 bucks to the pot." The guy next to him, who was never in the hand, raises his hand, looks at the dealer, and says, "Excuse me, but there are still other people in the hand" and then looks at me. The dealer tells me I'm not allowed to talk while others are in the hand. I tell him that the rules are I'm not allowed to talk about our cards, and I didn't. He says, "Yes, but you asked him if he was strong." I said, "No, I asked him if he went all in because they added $100 to the pot." The dealers shrugs his shoulder and says, "Same thing." Then Kindergarten guy says again, "There's still other people in the hand!" I tell him, "Excuse me, but you're not even in the hand so keep your mouth shut." He rapped on about it even into the next hand.

I was going to fold but I wanted to see if I could get some information for next time. It literally would have taken all of 20-30 seconds. It all got screwed up by Kindergarten guy. But did what I say cross the line? Was the dealer wrong? Should Kindergarten guy have kept his mouth shut?

Everyone else is right, you are wrong.

Way more annoying when people sit there thinking when they know they are folding

As a dealer I can tell you that you we're wrong. You can't talk about much in a multi way pot. Had it been heads up you'd have been ok. I do know ln some rooms you can't say things that influence action even while heads up, Im pretty sure aria is like that.

Don't be a douche bag. Keep your mouth shut.




And don't be a douche bag.

1.) Wrong forum.

2.) You were wrong.

Ha ha

you probably were wearing a hoodie, and sunglasses?

Can't say peep when doing business man!

My take is that you are way out of line (you're openly discussing/debating/etc. the potential strongness/weakness of a player's hand in a multiway pot, sounds like a violation of OPTAH to me), and the other guy not in the hand is correctly speaking up because he's trying to correct a dealer error (who should have been telling you to STFU unprovoked).

Gotta say it seems pretty unanimous. You were clearly wrong.

Also, it is so annoying when people want to Hollywood it up. Even worse when they have no intention of playing the hand. Just fold your lousy cards and move on.

It's basically an unwritten rule you don't talk when it's not heads up.

Wrong forum.
