#6 Table Nazi!

I know that the name is not very politically correct but after much discussion with several players we couldn't come up with a better one so here is the table nazi. We have all played with them before. This type of player must rule the table that they are on. They generally are loud and overbearing and make others on the table uncomfortable. They believe that they know it all when it comes to poker and will be glad to let you hear about it. They are never wrong. Just ask them! These players tend to want to split pots with multiple all in and will belittle you if you make a mistake. Should you happen to suck out or take this player out of a tournament, most times they will tell what a bad player you are and why you should not have been in the hand. There is nothing good about this style of player. They make others uncomfortable and not want to play bar poker. Most of the time I will have to talk to these types and try and calm them down so I don't lose business for the bar. The bad things about this style is that they rarely learn from what they see on a poker table and tend to over play their hands because they believe they can outplay anyone. The one thing I have learned from bar poker is that if you raise someone almost always calls. This player can't understand that concept. How do you deal with a this style. First, if a problem arises on the table call over the Tournament Director. That is their job to sort out controversy. Second, play hands with this player especially early when blind levels are low. You can put this type on tilt and that will usually lead to thier early exit. The fireworks will really fly when you get two of these players on the same table. Watch out a fight may break out anytime! If this style is you, stop it! You will live a longer life and people will respect you a little more at a poker table.
