Scenario:
2-5 NL Holdem cash game in b&m casino in AC
5 players limp in and I flop top pair on a flop of baby cards and bet
out $25
1 caller
ace on the turn we both check
I check river and villain bets $100
I assume It is 50% he is bluffing based on his agressive play
He likes to go over the top post flop with big bets
I ask him "will you show me if I fold ?" and he said yes
I fold he mucks tehn laughs and says I lied...
I called him low class and later a liar and he called me the MF word
He then made all kind of threats and kept using bad language wich I
returned in kind
leading to both being ejected from casino.
In retrospect I should have walked away from the table instead.
I would never berate a player over bad beats and loose calls
but I really do not like dealing with bad manners and rude people.
Was it acceptable poker ettiquete for him to lie that he will show
his hand?
I know it is not enforcable by the floor but I do not like a stranger
thinking he can disrepect
fellow players and I probably would have called him a liar if he did
it to another Poker player as well.
I will definately try to avoid such confrontations in the future
unless it involves the fore mentioned villian.
TIA

YOU are the villan here. Any cocksucker asking stupid questions like this
in a poker game deserves being lied to.

If you want a good way to get in to a fight , yet gain the support of
those around you .. get face to face with the guy and have your arms
folded. After a few words , jerk your head back , and scream at the guy
not to spit at you , combine this with unfolding your arms and acting like
you are wiping something off your face. The next word he utters .. CLOCK
HIM , and then make sure your face appears to be wet with some substance.
If anyone mentions the police , just tell them that he was spitting in to
your face .. someone around you will back you up !!
NEVER FAILS !!

D'oh!
I guess it is unanimous that villian did not violate poker ettiqute
I was definately wrong to keep bitching about it
I was being egged on by another player who was ROTFLHAO and I am not
proud of my actions
I have been going to casinos on and off for 2 years and never ran into
this scenario
If I get into a fight on the casino floor what is the policy in AC
about notifying the Police?
If there is a fight should I stay in the Casino until I am told to
leave or head out and hide .
I am definately going to try to control my actions in the future
but I may still need to get my hands dirty if this villian acts up on
me

1: Lying about a poker hand is a sacrament.
2: Asking "will you show" is stupid.

Assuming you can "beat a bluff" by how you define a bluff, if you thought
he was 50% bluffing than you were getting the pot odds to call anyway. You
should have seen his cards legit.

I got hit with that one. Twice. By the same person. In the same game.
Second time round though - I asked if he would show, he said yes, I
said, ok i fold. He laughed and mucked his cards (again). I pointed
out I had the last legal hand...

ousmarted someone .

First of all, it's a stupid question to ask and base your decision on.
Second of all, it's kinda dumb to believe anything a poker player tells
you. He had every right to do what he did.

What he did was completely correct and within the boundaries of decency as
well. When you asked him if he would show , you were trying to garner
information . You created the dialogue and he used it to his advantage .
he outplayed you at your own game . grownups dont ask that question in a
poker game .
Jason,you,
sir, are much, much stupider than FangBanger.

I can honestly say I have never asked "will you show if I fold" in my
whole lifetime.
This is crap that started on TV.
Also before the TV crap you never saw people take for ever to decide what
to do on a hand.
I will almost bet Doyle has never taken over a 60 seconds to decide on a
hand in his whole life.

You were both douchebags, but worse, YOU were a sucker. If he'd done
that to put you on tilt, he'd have been a winner and you'd have been a
loser. As it was, you were both losers.
