Do you use a card guard? (1 Viewer)

[HRC]

Just wondering how many players do. Thanks.

 

[detroitdad]

Yes sir

 

[links_slayer]

Yep...

 

[spikeithard]

occasionally I do.

 

[72o]

Always! Even if it's just a chip from my stack.

 

[atomiktoaster]

Yeah, I do. Unguarded hands really make things harder as a dealer. Much easier to keep track of who is in the hand if they're all clearly guarded.

 

[Pinball]

I do it

 

[CdnBeerLover]

Yup....

 

[DrStrange]

Me too . . . DrStrange

know how i know you're old?

you use a card guard

 

[Mr Tree]

All it takes is one dealer accidentally mucking your big hand and costing you a pot because you didn't protect your hand to make you a card capper for life.

 

[MikesDad]

yes... I usually use a chip inside of an airtight. An old Vineyard has been lucky for me lately

 

[MrWitti]

Feel naked without card guard... It really distracts me if I don't use one. I have some behaviour patterns which must be followed....

Just a dropped chip from my stack.

Either a card guard, a dropped chip (or three) from my stack, or most often, my fingertips.

 

[PAZ]

I do!

I never do. I never let go of my cards from the time I get them to when I muck them. I put my fingers on either side on my left hand flat on the table (and I'm usually shuffling with my right hand). I don't think I give anything away, like shake tells or anything like that, so this generally works for me.

FYI you have more of your pinky over your cards when you're bluffing

 

[jbutler]

yeah i use a care bear.

just kidding. but this one dork i know does.

I used to do that, but kept forgetting it when shoving or counting my stack. For me, a card guard works best.

Inconclusive - I'm always bluffing. I never actually haff it.

 

[Vinyard]

Are you kidding me? This will happen if you don't.

You could be so lucky! Busto has prolly cost me more $ than the cursed lil green deuce has cost you lol.

I'm card guard challenged. Busto usually just stares maniacally at other players with his back against my cupholder. I use a chip in an airtite sometimes for a card capper but not consistently even when it's on the table. I tend to not want to cap cards then uncap to fold, so I usually do the berg claw. Maybe it's just easier not to fold.

 

[bergs]

Fuck folding.

Chip from my stack in the casino, card guard in home games.

 

[Whitewolf777]

I do.
When I don't have one on hand, I often use a chip from my stack.
however, I don't systematically place it on my cards, having my opponents wondering why.

 

[Marhault]

I've never personally used one. I tend to keep my hands on my cards. I'm really thinking about getting one though. I'd like to get one like another poster mentioned earlier a nice retro LV casino chip in a holder. I feel like that would be something different.

 

[Dr Lecterr]

I've tried to use one. Seems like it's just extra hassle. So I don't use one. I just hold my cards in my fingertips as flat as I can.

Different? I would say that's by far the most common chipguard.

 

[ChaosRock]

Yes, but my Gengar has been sequestered by one "detroitdad" who's asking for a hefty ransom for his release...
