i would hope they would at least have somewhat of an idea...especially if its early (in a tourney) because if i do stack up some chips, my raising range increases in position...not that that happens a ton, haha. so someone thinking they have a read on me because i established a pattern earlier...can work in my favor. but yeah, if i'm lingering around a stack of chips that isn't letting me open up that much, then fine, they can have a read on my range all they want because that's at least one person who will fold.
however it is lame if someone says something in chat...DURING the hand. it really is a crime. i don't just guess what someone has out loud. sometimes its tempting. the other day...playing some freeroll...was at a table with some donkey...the blinds are low, its early. this guy is just stalling down to the last second on every hand. he was chatting it up, and everyone at the table was starting to get pretty annoyed with him. one hand comes up and he just quickly limped in...in a hurry this time. i knew he had a monster, i thought he had AA because i saw him stall limp AK and QQ in earlier. he'd doubled up and i guess thought he was really good all ready. someone with JJ raised, he called. flop comes down, neither hit...he checks, JJ shoves, he calls...and turns over AA. figured it was the only hand he'd get all excited about...and just limped, let JJ see the flop...everyone in there couldn't stand him all ready, nobody would have been like 'hey man that's cold, you shouldn't talk about the hand' if i'd said 'i think he's got AA'...but there's just no point in it...even if he deserved it in this case.
