One lady persisted in the 'one card' habit. Finally, after I insisted about the third time, she said (in a sneering tone) : "Oh, that's right - YOU'RE the guy that always insists on seeing cards."<br /><br />My new reputation!Aussiesmurfhttp://aussiesmurf.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1169281096117913024.post-27684412172659840212012-03-26T15:06:52.621-05:002012-03-26T15:06:52.621-05:00I never know who is supposed to show..

Frankly, some of the regularly featured players almost revel in poor etiquette.<br /><br />@ The Neophyte: Yeah, handling the inevitable awkwardness of these weird showdowns always makes me uncomfortable. But if you have a good dealer, they can make it a lot easier by directing the showdown action.Grange95https://www.blogger.com/profile/01857460215043659894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1169281096117913024.post-82563319669900413572012-03-25T11:34:47.859-05:002012-03-25T11:34:47.859-05:00Thanks for the post, it drives me crazy when some ...Thanks for the post, it drives me crazy when some of these people refuse to show. Lately I just turn to the guy and tell him " You've been called sir, time to show your cards."
