Title: Making change in Tournament poker. Post by: Sulphur man on September 28, 2012, 06:09:39 AM So you build up a stack (thin) and then everyone at the table needs change each hand. Are
you forced to make change? Can you refuse if you deem that its not absolutely necessary? :pop: Title: Re: Making change in Tournament poker. Post by: DMorgan on September 28, 2012, 07:21:22 AM People being uncooperative with giving change is a legit contender for most tilting thing in live poker.
Title: Re: Making change in Tournament poker. Post by: Doobs on September 28, 2012, 07:38:23 AM People being uncooperative with giving change is a legit contender for most tilting thing in live poker. What about those people who insist on putting in 100 for the ante, even though they already have 75% of the 25s at the table already? To be fair so much about live poker is tilting. Title: Re: Making change in Tournament poker. Post by: nirvana on September 28, 2012, 07:46:28 AM The most tilting thing is so many squareheads calling raises with extra change to make life 'easier' for the dealer.
Someone raises to 525, they say nothing and slide a 1K and a 25 over the line. FFS, just chuck 1 chip in if yr calling or the exact amount.

Post by: tikay on September 28, 2012, 07:52:10 AM People being uncooperative with giving change is a legit contender for most tilting thing in live poker. It's a power thing Dan. They refuse, or get awkward, because they can. I always assume when they do that it suggests they are hen-pecked at home, but at a poker table, they have that ounce of power. There's one at every table, but when I'm donning my Thom Yorke personna & am King for a Day, instead of lining them up against the wall & shooting the lot of them, I'd make them all share the same table.

Post by: Sulphur man on September 28, 2012, 08:26:31 AM So glad i posted this, these responses are priceless and the reason i love this forum.
I always make change without compliant although it does on occasion grate me. And yes live poker can be immensely tilting at times agreed. Title: Re: Making change in Tournament poker. Post by: Simon Galloway on September 28, 2012, 10:28:48 AM Nothing more fun than giving someone a stack of 25s so they stop bugging you for change and then watch them spend 4 minutes counting out a call of 450 using 18x25 chips in the next hand before asking you for more change.
Title: Re: Making change in Tournament poker. Post by: smashedagain on September 28, 2012, 10:34:55 AM I hate it when dealers ask someone to buy up all the lower denomination chips just before colouring up and someone won't do it incase he needs to bet a 25 chip. Wankers

Post by: dr411 on September 28, 2012, 12:39:52 PM i think all tournaments should only use one denomination of chip. The 25 chip, with no changing or chip racing or chipping up.
This might require larger tables/card rooms and some sort of block and tackle system to place bets. I believe this is the way forward.

It is amazing to me how completely oblivious how most players are to this and still put in their antes right at the very edge. Tilts me so much.

So sue me, I like building towers, I make no excuses for it. [X] have and will continue to change up other peoples chips to give change even if not asked [X] have and will put in a 100 to get 3x25's so 'top up' my 18 high stack of 25's. [X] get tilted to **** when i have all the change and have to do it for the table [X] am often the one who calls for more change to the table [X] would trade a £25 for 24x £1 every day of the week @ the table [X] realise I'm a tool [ ] likely to change as a result of this thread [ ] does any of this deliberately to annoy people Cashed out 1725 int 1/2 the other day. Had exactly 1 $25 chip. In b4 thin, was still a losing trip. :( eugh... how was vegas overall mate? Title: Re: Making change in Tournament poker. Post by: Junior Senior on September 28, 2012, 10:19:08 PM Biggest thing that tilts me is when the dealer is short/small and has to reach over to gather in all the antes every single hand. It is amazing to me how completely oblivious how most players are to this and still put in their antes right at the very edge. Tilts me so much. Always end up saying something (usually its ignored and they continue being absolute dicks) or I end up putting the antes closer to the middle for the dealer on my side of the table.. Yeah but I have seen it deliberately done when dealer is female, fit and with a low cut top on. #justsayinglike Title: Re: Making change in Tournament poker.

I will not miss the next blonde bash under any circumstance that's for sure. Ahrt Title: Re: Making change in Tournament poker. Post by: Sweetman on October 07, 2012, 06:22:32 PM I hate it when dealers ask someone to buy up all the lower denomination chips just before colouring up and someone won't do it incase he needs to bet a 25 chip. Wankers So tilting when you're the 'gatherer' and then lose an all-in confrontation just before the break and have to pass that huge stack of 25s across the table too eh Jase? I loved that almost as much as I like making chip castles!! Title: Re: Making change in Tournament poker.

Post by: SuuPRlim on October 09, 2012, 12:16:22 AM Yh in America for some reason they like to have loads of chips that is the denomination of the BB. play $5/$10 buying for $1500 you get 150 $10 chips, very odd, everyone says it makes the games loser, maybe it does.
Cant QUITTE get my head around it. |
