There is a lady who I hate to play with. I will call M. Everyone knows if you are not in a hand you should not comment on the Board. Any way when she is out of a pot and she sees all of one suit say spades she always comments looks like a flush is out there. Everyone tells her to shut the F up. M's favorite comment is " I know that sorry" then two hands later if the board pairs out comes look out for the boat. The reason they will not kick her out is because everyone we play with is senior citizens and she plays bad so everyone puts up with this shit. That is why poker is so frustrating. Not only do your hands have to hold up but you have to put up with a lot of jerks. edh530https://www.blogger.com/profile/17350460500843652702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8283462864090963789.post-10482816307700702762014-09-10T09:05:22.050-07:002014-09-10T09:05:22.050-07:00I admit, I totally misjudged how long this post wa...I admit, I totally misjudged how long this post was going to be.

It's much more likely he doesn't have a girlfriend--and that even his cat hates him. Seriously, the odds of a guy who's playing a $10K freeroll having a girlfriend that looks like that are one in a gazillion.<br /><br />I agree with all your little gripes. In fact, my blog is littered with stories like that. Here's a link to one of my more recent stories about a really bad winner, one of my favorites, if you haven't already read it:<br /><br />http://robvegaspoker.blogspot.com/2014/07/i-hate-it-when-people-call-me-with.htmlRobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05767080296489122846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8283462864090963789.post-28743088101967359692014-09-09T23:24:59.521-07:002014-09-09T23:24:59.521-07:00I would certainly hate the 9 guy too.

I now understand your reasoning and agree that the rule should be adopted as written.<br /><br />The only thing I hate more than the situation you described is when the winner of a hand is stacking his chips and he is rude to the loser. This could be a variety of things - openly asking about or speculating what hand the loser had, criticizing how the loser played the hand, complaining about not winning more chips, or anything else other than shutting up and enjoying the victory while allowing the loser to sulk in misery. Have I been the victim of this recently? Maybe.<br /><br /><br />Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11509663427987632245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8283462864090963789.post-53275763229363447932014-09-09T18:32:40.034-07:002014-09-09T18:32:40.034-07:00OK....but you will be hated for it.

When it got down to 20 players, the tournament ended and every got paid the same amount (I think $500 but not sure). So this would be similar to that. I think most freerolls chop long before regular tournaments do.<br /><br />But again, as I indicated in the post....there was so little time to play actual poker, it would have been almost as fair to just have us pick prizes out of a drum as to actually play, so it isn't as crazy as it sounds.
