Poker Fools Day 4-1 @ 8pm -- Poker Tournament rnd 2

There was some under age Levi loving on top of a car hood going on outside when we left. I'm pretty sure it involved one of the gamblers.
 
I kept looking at Bronco's face after every stupid comment that chick made just to see the utter disgust on his face. And yeah, the other Alex and emo chick were still outside grinding on each other when I left around 1:30 or so. Hopefully some 13 year old got a free softcore porn show from his bedroom window. I can't believe franklin went to cry in his car and passed out though...sad really.
 
I thought the drunk guy was hilarious. I'm glad he won it all. Gameface, thanks again. I'm glad I've met you guys. You're all awesome. Even that Franklin guy. Trout, thanks for talking me into going. Sometimes you can actually be a nice guy. Gameface don't worry about Trout screwing up. It's all good.

This comment turns my stomach.

Or maybe it was the meatballs.

Either way, I wasn't the one cuddling with her at the table.

No kidding, Trout and her were sitting pretty close and there was a lot of room at the table.
 
I can't believe we haven't mentioned once that franklin's buddy came to the game packin. If anyone saw the cards I had hidden in my pants we would've had an ol fashioned shootout.
 
Yeah, I'm not exactly sure what to make of that. I didn't notice until half-way through the night. I find it HIGHLY unusual that someone would open carry into someone else's house without asking if it was ok or even mentioning it. I'm pretty pro-gun, but to open carry to a $20 poker game where there will be some drinking going on seems like an odd thing to do. The guy was not drinking and seemed level-headed, but I still find it questionable at best. The fact that it did draw a lot of attention and he didn't want to talk about it was also odd.

In any case, new house rule is that weapons are checked at the door. Again, I'm not anti-gun in the least and the fact that he had a gun didn't make me particularly nervous, but I'd say it's a bad idea to bring a gun to a poker game. One of the reasons I prefer to play relatively low-stakes games is because I don't figure it'd be worth it to anyone to hold up the game for a hundred bucks or so.



On a side note, if the guy had a concealed carry permit he should have kept it concealed and there wouldn't have been an issue.

I use Robert's Rules of Poker as my house rules. Here's Section 1:

SECTION 1 - PROPER BEHAVIOR
CONDUCT CODE
Management will attempt to maintain a pleasant environment for all our customers and employees, but is not responsible for the conduct of any player. We have established a code of conduct, and may deny the use of our cardroom to violators. The following are not permitted:

Collusion with another player or any other form of cheating.
Verbally or physically threatening any patron or employee.
Using profanity or obscene language.
Creating a disturbance by arguing, shouting, or making excessive noise.
Throwing, tearing, bending, or crumpling cards.
Destroying or defacing property.
Using an illegal substance.
Carrying a weapon.

POKER ETIQUETTE
The following actions are improper, and grounds for warning, suspending, or barring a violator:

Deliberately acting out of turn.

Deliberately splashing chips into the pot.

Agreeing to check a hand out when a third player is all-in.

Softplaying by refusing to bet against a certain opponent whenever heads-up.

Reading a hand for another player at the showdown before it has been placed faceup on the table.

Telling anyone to turn a hand faceup at the showdown.

Revealing the contents of a live hand in a multihanded pot before the betting is complete.

Revealing the contents of a folded hand before the betting is complete. Do not divulge the contents of a hand during a deal even to someone not in the pot, so you do not leave any possibility of the information being transmitted to an active player.

Needlessly stalling the action of a game.

Deliberately discarding hands away from the muck. Cards should be released in a low line of flight, at a moderate rate of speed (not at the dealer's hands or chip-rack).

Stacking chips in a manner that interferes with dealing or viewing cards.

Making statements or taking action that could unfairly influence the course of play, whether or not the offender is involved in the pot.

Using a cell phone at the table.
