another calling thread haha

i just wanted to know if anyone else calls time on people when there taking ages to make a decision? for the people that dont know it means that player needs to make his decision in the next minute

i usually just do it for a laugh because people usually get pissed off when u say it

We did it last night :D

In the end Gaz only called because we called time. And he found out that he was in trouble with his TT against AJ and AQ (I folded TT, see).

He lost :D

I want it known that I hate you all for doing that, and you better hope you don't need any time to make a decision when I'm on your table, since I shall be returning the favor whenever possible. Perhaps if you took more time to think, you wouldn't be losing your stack with 7-2? :P

That said, no reason you shouldn't do it if you want to.

I think everyone else just does it now to be a tool, and piss Gaz off. Poor form guys :P

It was I that first said it, then J dizzle caught on. Gaz seriously was taking his time - first off Kyle took like 2 minutes to decide he was going over the top, then Gareth spent a good 2 mins deciding whether he should call the all in.

Frankly, if any decision is taking that long its a good sign you should fold. We were losing time on the blinds :P

also hate when people feel they need to shuffle the deck a million times before cutting it, there should be a ruling on this, if u cant shuffle ask someone else on the table to do it

another reason why i like the casino, its so quick between hands

LOL at anyone arbitrarily calling time :lol:

Anyone on the table actually have a stopwatch going the second it's called? Anyone know how long it's been from last action to time being randomly called? Anyone actually know the ruling on calling time?

LOL at calling time. Stop watching TV.
