Am I over-reacting to Angle? (1 Viewer)

[Josh Kifer]

I would quit, but only after playing one more game.

Start by saying "This will be my last game because of the angle-shooting allowed. But if you are going to allow it, I'll stick around for a final farewell.

Then proceed to angle-shoot the hell out of the game. Push and pull chips. I see your $100... and raise you (pause until the next player acts). Go south. "Mis-read" your hand.

Either it will open their eyes, or you walk a very rich man. Win-win.

Okay. Correction. I'm going with this now.

I am made of evil and not nice, and that means we have so many more angles then these guys. @Poker Zombie wins.

I guess something we should keep in mind is that there are a lot of different kinds of home games. At many home games, slow rolling is celebrated, though at a casino it is generally reviled, and could get you punched. And similarly, some angle-shots are embraced. Not only might some people think that “I’m all in . . . with my cards” crack is funny, some people might even think that kind of information fishing is fair game.
I don’t think there’s any game that would embrace them chip stack bullshit described here, but my point is, there’s a whole spectrum of shots and behaviors that could be treated very differently in different places. It’s not what I’m looking for in a game, but to each, their own.

WTF. This is way too reasonable for PCF.
