All I'm sayin is that it wouldn't hurt them to show it a little more often. Focusing on a hand being played, I get that. Studying a hand when you're not involved in it? I get that, too. Having a dead-silent, somber mood at the table all the time? Don't get that. I mean there is lots of "dead-time" at the table -- dealer change, shuffling, waitress comes by, dealer pushing the pots (to me:D ), whatever. No need to have a complete silent, morose mood at the table all the time.
 
All I can do is compare MY experiences. When I play low-limit LIMIT poker, most of the people at the table seem to genuinely be having a good time. There's usually light chit-chat, some laughing and kidding around once in awhile, and at least the appearance that the players are having a good time and on friendly terms with each other. In my experience, it's generally not that way at the NL tables I play at.
 
I'm not really sure exactly why this is. Perhaps people are new to the game and, therefore, tense? Maybe they are playing above their bankroll and out of their financial comfort-zone? I don't know, but there must be some reason for the difference. Even those that take the game seriously should realize, I would think, that if you keep it a little bit lighter at the tables, you'll attract more casual players which has got to be good for your bottom-line.
