Title: GGRRRRRR..This Gets Me So Mad
Post by: suzanne on November 12, 2005, 10:57:21 PM
Multi table players make me soooo MADDDD. I know a lot of you guys do this but it is SO infuriating to constantly be waiting for one particular player to make a move. I play STT's mostly $3 - $10 as I am still on the learning curve and I like to study players and moves etc so a game that takes twice as long because you are continually waiting for a player to "time out" makes my blood boil. You can spot them a mile off, they start off aggressive, double up, win a few pots then just disappear to play another table popping in now and again on the blinds. So to all you multi tablers I want to say a big BOOOOO for wasting mine and the other players sat at the tables time.

There....I feel better now  :)

I am going to play very slow tomorrow in the WPT event here at Foxwoods. I usually take 1-5 SECONDS to act, Tomorrow I will take a min of 15 seconds everytime it is on me, I will let you know how it works out 8)

I always try to act as swiftly as possible, never really more than a few seconds before i fold. Don't think I'd piss you off at the table.
Well, not by taking too long to act anyway :D

A similar thing that annoys me is when you get near the button on some sites (that don't go hand for hand) people star slowing down, either if they are the shortstack or are trying to help out a shortstack on their table ??? ???
Very frustrating.

I think he meant bubble. but I'm sure you can all guess that from the context.
Hand 4 hand can be a godsend if you're in a MTT and have something to do in 5 hours time. Some sites give players way too much time to act every hand. You should get 15 seconds plus a 3 minute clock for descisions. Rather than 60 seconds and a 60 second clock.
