Title: Showed me one card Post by: Biddy 62 on February 11, 2013, 08:25:03 PM Local snooker club cash game. Me and guy at side of me left in the pot, i bet £15 on the river. He hums and hars while doing so flash's one card at me. I immediately scoop the pot while he's going mental insisting he was going to call. Thoughts please.

Hand is still live, even though he's looking for a reaction, he can still call and win the pot p.s don't play in unlicensed games in case of disputes ;-) Title: Re: Showed me one card Post by: SuuPRlim on February 11, 2013, 08:32:17 PM 100% live, looks like a bit of an angle from you tbh (although I'm sure you weren't, just what it looks a little like..)
Title: Re: Showed me one card Post by: Biddy 62 on February 11, 2013, 08:36:15 PM From me! How? He said something like, i'll just show you one.
Title: Re: Showed me one card Post by: Biddy 62 on February 11, 2013, 08:39:30 PM He'd hummed and harred for maybes 2 minutes, when he flashed the card i assumed it was a fold, surely he's angle shooting

Title: Re: Showed me one card Post by: cambridgealex on February 11, 2013, 08:45:01 PM what did he do to make you think he's folded? Your hand isn't dead if you show one card
Title: Re: Showed me one card Post by: Biddy 62 on February 11, 2013, 08:51:44 PM I assumed he was folding by showing me one card. I think the fact he was 2 minutes making a decision THEN showed me the card, he was going to fold
Title: Re: Showed me one card Post by: MTT DESTROYER on February 11, 2013, 08:55:51 PM You sound like a fun guy.

I think the fact he was 2 minutes making a decision THEN showed me the card, he was going to fold It might appear like that (by showing you one he's trying to get a read, yes?) but unless he has said "Fold", or his cards have hit the muck, then his hand is live Cards speak until then, whether he shows you one, throws it in the air and catches it or blows raspberries while he thinks Title: Re: Showed me one card Post by: Biddy 62 on February 11, 2013, 08:59:59 PM You sound like a fun guy. Lol you should see the other guy. I'm gobsmacked thet this is seen as ok.
Title: Re: Showed me one card Post by: jonlundy on February 11, 2013, 09:00:14 PM was it a proper dealer who declared it dead or was it a self dealt table?

"ok" is subjective. It's not great etiquette, depending on the circumstances. It's a snooker club cash game. Dealer dealt? Supervisor watching the hand? Those without great etiquette can get away with far more in these games than they could in a licensed venue Title: Re: Showed me one card Post by: MTT DESTROYER on February 11, 2013, 09:03:58 PM Like just deciding the pot is yours?
Title: Re: Showed me one card Post by: Tal on February 11, 2013, 09:12:46 PM I play in a game at my local legion where you can do "I'll call that....(five seconds)...and raise..."
They also have arbitary blind levels ("Shall we put the blinds up?"), people hiding their big chips, people stepping in while one bloke goes to the bar... You name it. I wouldn't rake in the pot in your spot, but law of the jungle, so whatever. Title: Re: Showed me one card Post by: SuuPRlim on February 11, 2013, 09:17:15 PM he's not said fold but showed you a card, you've snap taken the pot and told him his hand is dead? If you're bluffing it defo looks like an angle.
Not saying it was, but his hand defo isnt dead by the letter of the law in most cardrooms i've played in... |
