Topic: calling out a stack-bluff in a live game Forum: Card Chat

In bigger games, it is up to the players in the hand to call it or not.
In smaller games it is usualy up to the dealers, and floor.

See it is an angle shot to be sure. The thing is if I know the dealer will call it, I can safely take the shot. As it is a house rule I can trust is enforced by the house.

If it is left up to the players, they may choose to let me slide as you did, until it is advantageous for them to call me out on it. Now, I may be punished for my angle shot.

And that insures noone gets free angles.

In smaller games it is usually up to the house as these are considered entry level, and players may get angled without being aware. so the house watches out for them a bit.

As for giving him a warning, no way. This is not an etiquette issue. He is trying to doing something against the rules and you ensure he doesnt.

ps if you are NOT in a hand, you should not call it, as the player may or may not want to pick off the angle that time or not. For example he may be on a draw, the guy puts a bunch of chips and then takes most back perfect, you can draw, then some idiot NOT in the hand says wait he has to leave it all out there, and suddenly you are folding...
