I strongly agree with this, at my bar game the other night I had AA and someone else has AQ and the flop comes out JQQ and the guy at the other end of the table throws up his hands and shakes his head, then he says let me see what I folded. Turn brings a 6 and he says remind me to play Q6 from now on. So already I thought I had the best hand w my pocket A's so I go all in because I know there's only one other Q out there and I really dont think he has it. He calls and I show my A's getting dominated by his AQ. Fortunately for me the river was the last A in the deck, so I doubled up huge. But the point is that guy about screwed me over by making me think the odds of my opponent having a Q was not very good.

Discussing the cards you folded during the play of the hand is a big no no. Talk about it after the hand if you want to but, not while the hand is being played. That kind of thing is frowned upon and, it might even get you kicked out of some card rooms.

Default This swings both ways!

Up until today I havent spoken during a hand*, and luckily most people dont do it. Infact I think us "etiquette" players has to do some teaching with those who broke this golden rule. And on some sites there are poker managers who actually enters the chat to tell that this is not permitted, thank god to those.

* The Ipoker network got one weakness and thats when u are chatting on msn and its your turn ithe writing you do is automatically transferred to the player chat. Luckily for me I speak another language but in poker you have expressions that are worldwide. I write quite fast and I had a session where I was pretty much losing every *ing hand, I just couldnt believe it, but I kept on writing, telling my friend that I was doing disaster. But when I hit the nuts I understood what happened, Some of my hands was transferred into the chat, so some knew my hand. But for others than this episode I have never outed a hand

I think this is a case when you got a bit confused. Forgot where you were chatting?

Default it bites

Yes I know what your talking about and its very bad giving away information

but I have actually been at a table and been all in and someone tells their hand before the entire table was making the calls or folding and that makes a huge difference on what someone will be doing with a all in call.....talk about wanting to smash your monitor

Man I am a posting full tonight trying to get into the free roll tomorrow night but they have been great post. I promise look around for me

Default I like it

I think the players that do these things are players that don't understand the concept of how it changes the odds, use this to your advantage and isolate that player in a hand and crush them, it all has to do with skill level and experience so it would be unlikely that this player will be in the tourney long.
