I bring my buyin in $20s wrapped in a scrunchy. They're more durable than rubber bands (I think they're actually really practical in that sense) and you look like a huge idiot.

You can tell the ones who aren't very good at playing for money when they act all serious and complain about the recreational players who clearly are there to spend money and have a good times.

when you play 1/2 call with a red and say 3 dollars change back......... everyhand .... eventually everyone at the table follows suit ...lmao

"I put you on..."

If you want to talk about things that have no basis in reality, let's examine what you keep bringing to the conversation. You're arguing against things that nobody is claiming. I don't understand why you repeatedly insist on doing this. You're arguing against yourself, and putting words in other peoples' mouths.

It's annoying. Please stop it.
I'm not a poker dealer, so I would hope you do. I'm not sure if that's supposed to impress me, but it doesn't. i've spent plenty of time playing in my life and I'm sure I know a lot more about the game than you ever will.

You're clearly exaggerating your argument to back your claims. I doubt you see it nearly as often as you're asserting. You make the same vague ridiculous statements about this every time this discussion pops up, without ever citing any specific examples. It's nonsense.

You're had a mini-obsession with me for years, constantly going after my posts and following me around the site, despite the fact that you're wrong the majority of the time. The only thing I repeatedly insist on doing is being one of the few intelligent people who shows up in threads. Your line of thought that people get better because of strategy talk is pure garbage. Go follow around the rest of the Home Poker Forum nit weirdos.

Is that where you make a cage with short stacks of chips and put your tiger card protector in the middle?

Professionals not only treat amateurs with respect, they help them have a good time at the table. When you radiate condescending hostility toward the 'fish' at the table, you not only hurt yourself, you diminish poker.

When you clapcheck.

Zoo stacks means your chip stacks are of many different sizes, and not at all neat... The benefit is that you cannot tell at a glance how much you are up or down, so you don't "obsess" over being up/down...

Quite the contrary.

I've heard that line a bunch of times, and not once, has it ever been voiced from a fish.

I say things like that to encourage their play. To reinforce their choices.

It's funny how two different people can view the same thing entirely different.

When you say " kids these days think its about math when there isnt math involved"
Or " ive still got cards to come why would I fold"
Also anyone with casino gear that they don't get paid to rep is pretty high on my book

Well the steak came with an awesome baked potato, and the fish came with some bad beats.
