Post subject: September Captains Choice Contest! Closed! Winner Announced

Our AWESOME Team Captain Bower wants to know?

Poker is a gentleman's game. Proper etiquette is a must if you want respect from other players.

If you think about it, most poker etiquette is little more than common sense and good manners. Players who are careful to exercise courtesy and respect at the table will usually find their experience to be better for it.

FOR THIS CONTEST EVERYONE NEEDS TO LIST AT LEAST 2 WAYS YOU BELIEVE SHOWS PROPER ETIQUETTE AT A POKER TABLE?

RULES

1- Everyone making a post is entered into this contest. All members that enter will be placed in a drawing where the winner will receive a $30 Prize.

2- PC-Points may also be awarded for "good thinking" or as runner-up prizes, as determined by PC Staff. Contest ends on September 30, 2009.

3- 3,000 pc-points will be deducted when prize is paid. If you do not have 3,000 pc-points to redeem for a cash prize, you will be credited 3,000 pc points to redeem on your next contest win.

4- You will need to advise us which payment method you would like us to use to pay you. To do this, please go to the red section above and click on "My Payment Method" and follow the instructions. You only need to do this once (unless you later wish or need to change your payment method option). If you have any questions, please send OrangeCrush or Crushadmin a private message. Smile

Good Luck. Happy Gaming Always!

1. Don't Talk About Your Cards While the Hand is Still Going On

2. Don't Be Rude or Mean. Even if you are losing this is a no no.

A Gentleman's Game?What about us Ladies,it is 2009 you know.LOL!!!

1 - Deliberately Acting Out Of Turn
While accidents occasionally happen, you should never deliberately act out of turn in an attempt to influence the game.
2 - Commenting On Other Players’ Hands
It is considered poor poker etiquette for those who are not actively involved in a hand to discuss the play of those who are.

Keeping your cool - I hate it when I watch live poker and someone gets mad and blows up- I mean, come on...they chose to play the hand! And playing on line, I think its rude to wait the timer out.

NO CHEATING#1 AND KNOW HOW TO BE A GOOD WINNER OR LOOSER#2

valeria - 06.09.2009, 18:58
Post subject:

I think making comments about how another player plays their hand as "stupid" and shows their own ignorance.

The people who go all in EVERY single hand trying to grab some money and ruining the game for everyone else who are actually trying to play poker.

They are usually the ones who are constantly mouthing off about everyone ELSE's playing, or sex or whatever else they can think to insult people. These people have no business playing real poker. They belong in the kiddie section and should be playing Go Fish! LOL

Rudeness gets you nowhere and only makes people feel animosity towards them.

Poker should be fun, using your brains and being courteous.

when you lose, simply say GG to the rest of the players & move on gracefully or graciously as it may be
what makes no sense to me is when ppl bash you for playing your cards the way you want to
it's a game of luck, very little skill goes into playing non masterable games
they should be treated as such, but with a money hungry world, ppl get so bent out of shape, it's not your job, so have fun with it (if it was your job, you wouldn't be here) lol

It is not whether you win or lose it is how you play it. Good sportsmans is everything in playing.

1. dont use nasty language because not everyone wants to hear it.

2. If you get away with a bluff don't brag about it, just quietly let it pass and be forgotten (or you may get caught next time you bluff)

1-Lie a lot (like say nice hand when they needed runner runner to beat your hand)
2-Lie some more (like say well played when they called 5x the big blind with a marginal hand and hit the best hand)

Post subject:

1. Keep all table talk after a hand has played and before another begins.

2. Above all Do Not make rude comments or call other players names! I see this a lot during free tourney play and it really is poor sportsmanship.

Thanks for the contest

Hi Crushers Smile

Some great answers! I agree Bower, more input please Wink

Show us your Table Manners! <--Ones your parents are so proud of!

Believe it or not (<-TRUE) I chat minimal, unless it is with friends, crushers, etc.

But when I do chat in online games, I most often use:
NH=NiceHand VN=VeryNice :-)=Smile TY=ThankYou

And lately seeing good players having to stoop to those
Maniacs with no hand, but reraising you every chance-
I use GC=GoodCall to the players winning against them.

I would have to say don't be a bad loser and don't talk about others hand.I havn't played yet so am guessing here lol:)

gjr1961 - 18.09.2009, 02:07
Post subject:

Well, I am really new at poker, but I think giving all the players respect is what is important. Never show off to other players when you are winning and never put down other players when they not, nobody needs help feeling like a loser.

msfilly - 19.09.2009, 02:20
Post subject:

Here is one that I am confronted with quite often:
That is the PUSHER, this is the player that gives everyone grief for taking to long. Sometimes one needs a moment to evaluate the game. Whereas, a snap decision can sometimes be the difference between winning or loosing a game. The site you play on has allotted a certain amount of time for each player and the PUSHER needs to respect that equal time.

msfilly - 19.09.2009, 02:24
Post subject:

On that same note as my above post is the opposite of the PUSHER and that is the LAGGER, This is the player that is watching tv, or making dinner, diapering babies etc.... If you are going to play at the poker tables please try to keep your head in the game and pay attention. Everyone will benifit from this bit of etiquette.

well I would say keep all sacastic comments to yourself and dont let it show if a person really annoys you by watching your body movement oe expressions.

don't throw you chips at the dealer when you lose and you need to keep your cool, so no yelling and cursing

Not degrading another players

Enjoying to game .. but not being rude or boasting too much

And definitely not going all in - on every hand

Bower50 - 24.09.2009, 20:24
Post subject:

With all these replies I'm sure we will definitely have the poker table with the best etiquette.
I'll add one to your awesome list.
If you are not involved in a hand you should never react to community cards in such a way that may allow active players to guess what you may have folded.

anneandalan - 28.09.2009, 05:34

you know what Bower, I actually have never thought of that and I am terribly guilty of it when playing with friends....thanks for the heads up! Smile

Good one Bower.

char1984 - 28.09.2009, 21:14
Post subject:

That was a great one Bower as I have found people to do that and can ruin your hand when they are wondering if you have that 4th 3 or not just for someone to say dam i folded a 3 then they know you dont have it grrr.

sunspun - 30.09.2009, 23:08
Post subject:

Somebody's probably already mentioned this, but maybe it's worth saying again... don't take forever to make your move!

I see people timing out sometimes, only to immediately see them say "I'm back" and then do the same thing their very next turn, and again and again. Drives me crazy. Either play or sit out.

And speaking of sitting out, usually you'd be better to just leave your seat to someone else, instead of sitting out til you're automatically withdrawn anyway.

THX!
