Everytime before the blackjack dealer scoops up the money, points at the hand in a mild, passive aggressive way. Makes me wanna slap the ****ing dealer. *****, I know I lost, move on to the next. Why rub it in??

Pointing at the hand is not passive aggression.

It is direct.

That's when you go back to the table and mention it to shame them. Serious.

The speed at which players play in a local live tournament tilts me to no end. 5 players left I got A4o in the sb everyone folds to me. I shove my 8 bigs all in and the guy in the big blind takes 3 minutes to call me with A10 suited. We had just got in the money at this point.

I've been looking for this thread to vent for a while! Most of them have been said before I'm sure.

- People taking aaaaaaaages to act on simple decisions.
- People who wait for the action to come to them, THEN take 20 seconds to look at their cards, digest what they have, then take another 30 seconds to act. Just look at your cards when they are dealt!!!!!

No it makes the most sense.
At the end of the hand, I'm turning in two things to the dealer: my cards and my toke.
Therefore, I put them together and slide them around the pot, so the dealer has a clear path to push the pot and then can muck my cards and take his toke.

I handle it this way almost always in a big pot, but I suppose for uncontested pots I usually take the pot and then just fling the toke into the middle. Still I imagine that's more hassle for the dealer than just toke+cards simultaneously.

I couldn't find the appropriate place for this. Sorry if this is too far off topic.

I have a pet peeve I'd like to get off my chest:

It is the player who uses as many chips as possible to make all of his bets, and takes an hour to do it. My least favorite is the bet of 1975, or similar. Just bet 2000, don't take an hour to grab 1 1K, 1 500, 4 100s, 3 25s...does it really make a difference? Just bet the extra 25.
