I was in the casino last night sitting at 2-4 i'm in seat 3 the guy to my right on seat 2 kept showing me his hand... Like everyhand even if i had one i dont know this guy i just talk and have conversation with...I was thinking to my self like what the hell is this guy doing i got so much information from him it was pathic... Now the lady in seat 8 kept playing loose ... I mean she played evey pot kept riding crap to the end just kept buying in for more money after she go broke... What I want to know from anyone is that have any of you ever run into somebody that would litterally show you his hands....Or somebody that would play every single hand ......I was sitting there with my 100 buy in for over 15 hours......

Okay, this is easy.

Guy wants to show you his hand all the time. Well go ahead and look. He's probably trying to be friendly (well, yes, he's a idiot, but a friendly idiot with money to lose--what better kind?) and he expects you to reciprocate. I would (occasionally) just to keep him doing what he's doing. If I'd been at that table I'd have called the floor and made a BIG f'ing stink, but if you can get free info, take it. Hell, buy him a beer!

Some people think they have to make friends at the table. I don't. I have friends there and I've made a few, but it's not why I'm there. My friends are tough players who respect other good players. We don't begrudge each other good hands and we don't bitch about bad beats. We go as hard as possible against each other every time we are heads up--no backing off for "friendship's sake--" that's collusion anyway, as I look at it.

Now as for the lady who never folds....
Wow. The complete calling station! The total idiot. Guarenteed to lose. Okay you just play your good hands hard, knowing she'll call. Yes, she'll beat you when she shouldn't. But the money she'll be throwing into every pot all night, call after call, will make your evening memorable. If you don't like playing with a gal like that I'll email you my phone number. Maybe you can give it to her and she'll let me pay her cab fare to Harrah's in East Chicago, Indiana. Even at a couple hundred bucks to get her here it would be a fine investment!

Hey buddy thanks for the info you really answered my question....I was infact gettin ton of information on that guy.... That lady must of lost hundreds and hundreds it was insane, her lesbian friend kept coming to the table to give her more money.... Then they would give each other a peck then she would leave.... It was funny as hell.. I did pretty good that night . I could read everybody at that table it was just one of those nights..

But Ya i'm the same way even with my friends i play to win that's the way i am even if its my best friend......

Thanks for the info....

ok, the guy would bug me. It is always nice to see 2 more
cards that are'nt comin or goin to anyone else, but, I just
can't play with anyone who does'nt take it seriously... I
don't mean no talking with mean looks, I mean, at least
play your cards. The chick, not so bad. I've played with
girls just like that. I think they think that if they fold, they
lose.. and girls don't like to lose. Once they get past that,
most girls can be good tight players. On a bad run,
either of those would probably get on my nerves though,
so, hard to say how I'd react really. There always seems to
be at least one guy who wants to be your buddy, in any
casino.

Hmmmm

Next time I'm in New London I think I'll give Foxwoods a try. I had two sons in school there but never tried the casino.
