What is the most annoying poker behavior for you?

I hate people who slow-roll when they have a big hand. If i go all in preflop and they have pocket aces you dont need to sit there and time down until the last second before making the call. Make the damm call like you know what your going to do,
 
My biggest pet peeve at the poker table is someone not paying attention to the action and holding up the game. Not only is it a sign that you're a fish - you're not engaged in the hand and missing tons of information - you are also slowing the game down by being negligent. It's one thing to do it on purpose - to do it on accident is 10 times worse in my book.
 
People that try to burn the clock time in the bubble to play less hands in this phase of the tournament.

Like, bro, do you know that we are in a hand-to-hand phase, don't you? 😒
 
Well apart from the obvious collusion or soft play😎...

I'd say it's people who expect the entire table to wait on them the max amount of time every hand because they can't keep up,

....time is money, the rest of the tables are playing hands and we're sitting here wasting time waiting on you👎

Those who go all in every time. And too much chatting at the table.

When they make fun of themselves because they run backwards with garbage hands and the river saves them

What bothers me the most is when a bad game beats me with very bad hands, and not satisfied with that, he starts to mock and throw things. 😕 😡

Well, I haven't played live, so I can't say anything about conversations at the table and boring opponents; online, if I can turn off the chat, I do, and generally, I don't pay attention to conversations. However, when things aren't going well and the opponent starts to gloat and throw comments - OH!!! that gets to me. But over the years, I've learned to keep myself in check.
 
online when a player wins an all-in with bullshit like 52o and then brags with a 'I'm so good' or 'haha'.
 
I find it annoying when a bad player thinks they're good and keeps acting up just to get the table's attention, hehe.
 
For me, it’s slow players who take forever on every decision. I don’t mind someone thinking about a difficult spot, but taking two minutes to decide whether to call a tiny bet is painful.

Another one is players who complain about every bad beat. They lose one hand and suddenly the entire universe is rigged. Poker is already full of variance, we don’t need a courtroom drama after every river

For me, slow play is probably the most annoying, especially when someone takes forever on every decision. Bad beats happen, but wasting everyone's time is what really gets under my skin

Well , the most annoying poker behavior for me is to see the other player being very rude , insulting and cursing in a very bad way , especially if he does this because he lost one or more hands , and online such behavior is worse because the rude person is hiding behind his anonymity , a keyboard warrior . In live poker you can throw such a player instantly from a poker room or a casino room , or call the police . Online he is hiding . . I have seen on this many times in the | past . Nowadays I do not read messages during the| game so I don't care what everybody says . I want to be completely focused on my table and my game , nothing else .
 
The most annoying behavior for me is when someone takes forever on every decision, especially when the action is obvious. Tanking occasionally in a difficult spot is understandable, but doing it every hand slows the game down and ruins the flow.
 
The biggest annoying taliser—he just complains instead of playing.
 
You have to keep folding to the guy who goes all-in with any hand.

Online or live, what is the most annoying thing a player can do at the table? What behavior is practically guaranteed to get under your skin?

I don't play live, but I'd hate to play against an annoying talker.

Players who shout or bang on the table—the rest doesn't bother me.

In live, when the one beside me in the table talks a lot, trying to start a conversation or starts telling stories.
I sit down to play & not to make friends.
lol, I bet you are successful about not making friends...
 
I get irritated by those who just waste time for no reason other than that they can.. Will Kassoof comes to mind.
