I know everyone here doesnt play live but for those that do what are the things that really bug you that other people do when you are at a poker table.
Here are a couple of mine.
1. I hate when people take forever to make a decsion in a tiny pot. Dude come on we're play 1/3 NL there are no TV camera's you dont need to take 5 min to decide if you want to call a $10 river bet.
2. The fake all in. "I'm all out." Or the stack up your chips and then fold. We have all seen it 100 times before you are not original or funny.
3. Bad beat stories. I am pretty sure you are not the first person in the hisotry of no limit holdem that have their set busted by a rivered flush, when your Royal flush loses, than tell me yout bad beat story and I'll be happy to listen.
4. People that wear a hat and sunglass's at 3/6 or 2/4 limit games. This doesnt really bug me but I do like to laugh at these people.
5. People that bitch about unlucky dealers. Dude the dealer isn't out to get you, they just deal the cards in most places its a machine that shuffles, the dealer is there to do a job and make a living.. "I can never win when this dealer deals." While the dealer has no control over the hand if he/she did he would probably make you lose since you keep bitching and moaning and whining about them.
Cant think of any other right now.

6. People that are too busy socialzing and have to be reminded to post their blinds so we can play.
7. People that have to be reminded when it is their turn to act.
I play poker to play poker - not to chit chat. Yes, I chat at the poker tables but first and foremost I'm there to play cards, and it's my expectation that everyone else at the table will respect the game and the real money involved and pay attention (could care less if they pay attention anything else
)

9. Dealers that can't read an Omaha 8 board properly.
10. Casinos where there are different rules (regarding posting when coming in behind the button, exposing cards, table talk in a language other than English, etc.), depending upon who the floor manager is at that particular time.
