Good point.

That's the best advice. I learned that lesson a long time ago. I never beat anyone into the pot or act in haste. If someone declares all-in, I wait for the dealer to confirm it (and if they don't put out the all-in disc, I ask for clarification). Taking your time solves a lot of these problems.

Your the one whos mudslinging calling other players angleshooters when they dint do nuttin wrong

If you had wait until the other guy was done betting before putting chips out, the floor would not have been called and ruled against you for acting out of turn

If you didn’t push $1500 and then try to only be on the hook for only $165, the floor would not have been called and ruled against you for trying to take back a binding all in bet

You created both situations by doing something your not supposed to but you keep claiming your the one getting angled

And the floor is just another slimeball who is conspiring against you becoz there in cahoots with all the people tryin to angle you

We would usually play HORSET and started introducing badugi.

My goal for the mix, being that it’s lower limit, would be best served as an introduction to mix in general and we kept the games very “simple” and easy to understand before people may move up to the 20/40+ mix.

If you are interested please reach out to me because I’m trying hard to get the 8/16 mix going again. The game is time raked as well which is fantastic. Wish comps were better tho, give up time towards tiers!!

Is anyone interested in getting a 4 card list going once in a while? Maybe new-Johnny will be a little more accommodating in just letting us put a list up there.

Shoot, now all us ugly people gotta look ugly again. :P

Time to see who aged the best the past year.

To be honest, might keep wearing mine...I've hardly gotten sick at all the past year with it on.

I legitimately think I’m a better player with my mask on. I think I must give off some pretty obvious tells.

Back when I wore an N95 someone said that I looked threatening at the tables...like Bane. Nobody wants to mess with BANE!

You'd be in the majority, at least from what I observed after they became optional. I saw one or two players per table without masks. That number will probably increase going forward as people get back to being comfortable without it. (I kept mine on, fwiw.)

I saw like four people without masks from 5-6. Not sure where your table was, but most people kept them on.

I'm comfortable with not wearing a mask, but I'll wear it if anyone seated near me expresses a concern. It's not that big an imposition imo and I've grown accustomed to it.

I have this mindset most places, but I don’t feel as compassionate towards people when it’s at the casino, as poker is certainly an activity high risk people, or people not comfortable with being maskless can avoid.

I dutifully wore my mask for a year and a half and got my vaccine when I was supposed to and I’m ready to get back to normal.

On a side note, I was surprised at the amount of people in the room that were proudly saying they anti-vax, including several dealers. Please everyone, go get vaccinated.

This is nice and all, but I think its much more important to not tolerate this kind of mindset from people (the person expressing concern I mean).

^^^This pretty much sums it up for me as well.

Did anyone else think folks stopped brushing their teeth during the mask mandate and forgot to start again once masks became optional? There was some bad breath to be had last night. Another reason to keep my mask on!

How many players are they seating at tournament tables?
Is it 8 as well or did they move it 9?

Is there a new person controlling MGM-NH's poker twitter acct?

What's with all these dumb, annoying animated gifs?
https://twitter.com/MGMNH_Poker/stat...94059620134913

I expect these type of posts from the peanut gallery.
Not from an official acct representing the poker room
