I think I told this story years ago. Woman sits down next to me playing 100 hand QQs. Gets dealt 4,4,4,3,1.Goes to throw the 3,1 away when I said that you already have QQs. She proceeded to tell me to shut the f---k up and not to bother her she was trying for 4oak.
Why would you try to teach others how to play at the casino? You deserved to be told to shut the f---k up.
It's called being decent person.

I would have done the same thing.

Me too - but carefully and politely.

You mean you wouldn't have looked at her and said "Hey, stupid! Hold the F--ck-n ace and 3 too!!!

If i remember, I casually said you know you have QQs already. Nothing more, nothing less.

I pick and choose who I try and help once in a blue moon. Avoid the obnoxious drunks, obnoxious button slammers, or someone who only knows four letter words and nothing else in the English language. . 😂. Have helped over the years many clueless very nice senior couples and of course any pretty lady that obviously has no idea what she is doing or any lady for that matter who appears to need help. Sometimes the machine will not read players cards and the person next to me will get totally frustrated. I somehow have a magic touch to fix that and help them. I always get a nice thank You with no exceptions. I’m sure I posted this one five or 10 years ago. I was playing at bizarro one of my usual machines and it was little black dress night and the club had just closed for the evening. About five or six ladies in a group obviously had had a few at the club, walked up to me and said how do you play poker very nicely. Make a long story short they ended up hanging out for the next hour while I played my game a little slower than usual and when a waitress came by, I ordered cappuccinos for the whole group, including myself. I don’t think they retained too much of what I was saying but after a while, they moved on who knows where thanking me over and over again 😊
