You need to think about 'dignity' to take your mind off it....;-)

For live games it would be the rules that determine who has to show (i.e. the last person to bet or whatever). The rule should just be: everyone show your cards immediately after river betting is over or hand dead after, oh i don't know, 10 seconds. I think we could all play about double the number of hands if this happened.
I would stop the all-in before the flop!! Bugs the **** out of me Posted by ZeRo904
Morning ZeRo, & welcome to the Forum.
Can I ask you why that bothers you so much? I'm not criticising you, I'm just interested as I'm doing some research on what I see as irrational dislikes & intolerance.
Why does it exercise you so? It seems a very odd thing to bug someone so.
If it does, why don't you play a Pot Limit game, such as PLO or PLO8?
Imagine you won a seat to the WSOP Main Event, are dealt A-A first hand, & the geezer to your right goes "all-in". What would you do? What would you think? Happy, or unhappy?
I'd get rid of the fifth community card so I never have to hear another irrational whine about how someone's five card hand was bettered by an opponent's after the river was dealt.

That won't work, then there'd be "the Sky Poker turn".

Mr Channing is referring to an incident earlier today at the PCA, in which one Antonio Esfandiari was disqualified for doing exactly that. He had over 100,000 chips at the time. That's a lot of pennies.

I'd probably ban peeing in a cup at the table under any circumstances.
