I'd say "break the rules or etiquette". String bets, acting out of turn, talking (even giving advice) while others are in an intense hand, etc. Has happened in EVERY home game I've ever played at a house not my own.

Horrible dealing technique.

Everything else I can deal with because it means I'm playing with fish who are likely to give me their money. But people who take a million years to complete a really bad shuffle tilt the hell out of me and I usually end up volunteering to deal the whole game.

What chaps my ass the most are the players who prioritize chip/dip distribution and passing the bowl of nuts over keeping the game flowing.

Think the're a pro, act like one, and haven't got a clue. Rabbit hunting and looking at mucked cards will get you f'ed here, and saying what your last hand was will get comments like, " what,,,,you folded 2 7 off suit" " ya idiot".

There's always someone who says what they folded DURING the hand. The first time they do it I tell them why it's not allowed. This is always followed by "ohhhhh, that makes sense".

Okay, I'll bite - what is "cake" and what is "bastard"?
Is "cake" like "cheeseburger"?

What annoys me the most about inexperience players is their lack of poker table etiquette and chasing after hands ( and most of the time hitting on the river). Don't bluff a newbie Donk.

All of those things annoy me, especially when they are looking through the muck pile while others are still in the hand and showing it to the person next to them and saying "look what i folded" when there is a pair on the board or 4 to a flush.

2 things that arent on the list but should be....



Counting out chips one by one.


Stacking chips when the action is on them and having to finish before they play their hand.

I hate pretty much all the options, but the worst one is when they call any raise because they think that any card have the same chances to win before the flop. I already learned, you can't try to bluff much in home games with persons that don't play, they will call you with any pair or worst.

Good one! It's particularly annoying when it is their turn to deal too.

Same thing that annoys me online. Whine every time they lose. But you didn't have that so I voted cake.

Funny that you listed rabbit hunt since I have never seen anyone do it live but it is one of the most annoying things about Carbon.

When they mark the cards. Either by squeezing the crap out of them or getting potato chip grease on them. The squeezing more so than the food.
