I can vouch for you Mondatoo, they were hard to pick up. Pretty sure it came across that way anyway. I have a mobile face apparently, it's all good.

[GreekStein]

yeah they were ridiculously stupidly hard to pick up off that shiny slippery surface.

I love the place but that table is a joke. Absolute nightmare to pick up and as Cos pointed out if people are daft enough to hold their cards high enough you can see them in the reflection. On an FT it is something you can learn to live with pretty quick, But as a permanent feature table in a comp it is a ball ache imo.

Is the latest episode available on the net anywhere? not on dtd site yet.

sigh ignore.

LOL at Simon Trumper. Really struggled with the feature table as I could hardly pick up my cards. I wasn't the only one who struggled with it. There was no felt so you just had to attempt to pick your cards up on the flat glass, most people could manage as they where flicking the corner of the cards up with there nails, I sure ever have any nails. I reckon it would be better for the cardroom manager to try and provide a table that is a bit more player friendly then mock someone who struggles because the feature table is poor, surprisingly nothing was mentioned about how Will Fry struggled loads to look at his hand when he couldn't pick his cards up in the AK V JJ hand vs Fraser Bellamy and had to try multiple times to see his cards. Really feel like I was singled out to be made to look amateurish to make the episode more interesting and pretty steaming about it. Maybe I'm just terribly inexpeirenced and a bit clueless, FML.

This post has got much more bitter since you edited it!

Don't worry monda, just remember- good players get to play in card rooms, bad ones have to work there.

Interesting question and not trolling:

Is it ok just to tank to try and save face when essentially it wastes time? I never do this.

I think this is interesting too.

Snapfolding basically tells the whole table you were bluffing or raising light. It's almost like just turning your cards over and saying "you caught me I was bluffing". Obviously this is not information you want to give away. At the same time taking time for image and tanking when you know you're passing is essentially just wasting time. I try and find a grey area, not taking much time but giving a speech or something or taking a few seconds.

Yeah but when I bet I usually have a decision anyway and know what I'm going to do.

If you are competent you should already know which you are going to do, saving face merely wastes time.

Someone who raise tank folds is more likely to have me jam on them than someone who opens and snap mucks ready for the next hand.

Only poor players are going to give more credit to a raise tank fold than just a raise fold imo.

exactly and what a most live players beanie?!

[Amatay]

When is show 4 gonna be up?

[titaniumbean]

It's not like they adjust to you raising light anyway.


I'd rather get 2/3/4 more hands in than waste time pretending im making a big fold with my Acey Queeney. They have no idea of the ranges i'll be folding/calling with anyway so who cares.

I'd much rather raise fold and show what for me is a relatively strong hand like Acey Tenney Sooooted in late position or something. Even when you know the guy is a dirty nit and you can never call AJ or w/e but it kinda reminds the table you are allowed to be dealt a hand.


Personally I find live so dumb and slow that i'll do anything to not slow the game down. It seems like certain live players just take pride in playing as few hands as possible so they have the least chance to lose their chips. Idiots everywhere!
