What's the most annoying thing about Poker?

I mean in general, just random things which really grind your gears.

One of mine would have to be female presenters, on shows like Poker After Dark, for some reason they just get to me!

What are yours?

- People who take ages to make insignificant decisions, such as pondering for 2 minutes after someone has made a standard preflop raise. Fair enough if its a big hand but seriously. "Clock!"

- People who wear shades and hoodies and listen to music when playing. I do find them quite funny though so they aren't too annoying in that sense!

- Fishes trying to coach people and giving out pearls of wisdom such as, "Yeah I knew he was bluffing, he raised before the flop so he had to have 2 high cards. Thats why I check raised all in for 10x his bet with 22." When infact they could easily hav an overpair and if they did they would've busted you. In these cases I just keep quiet and have a little chuckle to myself

Great thread btw deaks! +1

People who when they win jump up and shout and scream about it. Certainly if its only one pot in the middle of an MTT. The winning hand of the WSOP, fine... a hand when there are 30players left and the cash is top 6, and you were always ahead... realllyyyy annoying!

People who are 80-90% favourite and get up and start screaming has to be the most annoying type of player. Infact, people standing up when they're 5% and putting their coat on/leaving the table are up there too - just rude when you do hit your hand.

@ Bridgey - Hindsight calls are the worst... You make a bluff that would get any sane person off a hand but one loose donk decides to make the call and then claims he knew it afterwards ... If you knew it, sir - please snap call next time.

The most annoying thing is to play with someone who looks for your tales every friking second!
