Default Favorite things about live poker. Please add to list.

-Seeing villains run their stacks up huge by being a donkey and then come crashing down over the next few hours for the very same reason.

-Laughing at the people who won't bet/raise with sets.

-People who won't bet the river because they think you backed into a flush.

-People who complain about not getting dealt any good cards after sitting at the table for 2 orbits.

-Getting called "lucky" all the time.

-People who get mad and storm out of the poker room.

-Seeing a packed room on Friday nights (20+ tables for me).

-The trash talkers on the NL tables next to me.

It's easier than online (at least for me)

Free drinks (not for me...for the drunken guy who will soon lose his chips because he's drunk)

Handling actual real live chips

Stacking those actual real live chips after a big win

Hot poker chicks

Laughing at people who wear sunglasses and a baseball cap at the low limits

Laughing at NL players when they try to kill time by playing 2/4 Limit

-Watching peeps re-buy 2-3 times in less than 1 hour

-Listening to the experts criticize the fish at 1-2 NL

-The Absolute pleasure you feel when you are betting the nuts.

-Watching peeps chase the flushes and straights over and over again.

-Listening to the experts who lost all their money at 5/10 NL justify why they are playing 1/2NL

Watching the Hollywood type with the Sunglasses pay for a massage at 1/2 Nl and proceed to lose all his chips.

- The drunk idiot that shows me every single hand he plays and loses.

- Going +$1200 in 10 hours of play at 3/6/12

- The girl that check raises me (AK) and 2 other people on a 33A7 board and then slowly leans back in her chair and takes a long swig of her beer. Hmmm .... i wonder what you have?

- Calling your opponents hole cards out live and freaking them out.

- Playing stagnant (not winning or losing) for 6 hours then going on a $400 dollar rush.

- Accidentally raising with K2o at 4/8 at the Bellagio live on your first hand at the table and hitting quad kings.

- Seeing the same horrible players every weekend in Lake Charles.

- Getting carded walking into the poker room because you look 17.

- The guy across the table that says its better to play hands like 57o because those cards are more likely to hit since most people dont play them.

- Giving "Mr. How to Play Live Poker" the nod when he says to use one of your chips as a card protector then not doing it.

- Watching two guys heads up at 3/6/12 reraise each other 15 times until they're all in on the river. Then seeing a face of total disbelief on the guy with the Ace high flush as the other guy shows a royal flush. Hmm ... what did you think the tightest player at the table reraised you 15 times with?

In the home game I love the real cash on the table. Benjamins in a big pile.

Hearing people complain about how unlucky they are when they play about 90% of the pots, and call to the river with any pair.

Playing at a casino table with a friend or two and watching some guy make the most bonehead moves and you know exactly what your buddies are thinking.

I really wish I could add "busting Randy in front of Sweat Pea" to this list. :D
