Oh I know what it is…just still think it’s bullshít and an unfair advantage. Without it even being spoken, two guys can chip away at everyone else at the table simply by betting each other up and then splitting pots.

As I've seen it in practice, it increases action. I can see what you're saying as it pertains to a bunch of recreational players in a standard stakes game like 1-3 or 2-5, but in insane games with no buying limit, like a 25-50, there are a lot of pros.
These guys are bringing 100K with them. No matter who you are, that's a poop load. Without these mechanisms, you would decrease the action and have smaller pots, fewer all ins, and even fewer calls of all ins.
That's also why they play the seven deuce game, the nit game, the bomb pots, and all the other non-standard things. It's all you got money flowing around the table faster and freer.
That's generally what everybody wants. If there isn't a chance to win money, why play?
The thing that annoys me is the constant rabbit chasing and the angle shooting like string raises and inappropriate table talk and showing your cards to your opponent, etc.

Nope. The damn thing identifies as a dryer, it's dryer equity and inclusion. I looked it up in the manual.

I agree with the other annoyances for sure. There is etiquette at a poker table like anything else…at least there used to be.
I’ve seen it in practice as well. I helped run a cash game for awhile. It didn’t bring 100’s of thousands but on most nights there was anywhere from $5k - $20k being played. Guys used to try things like this or would try “saving” their last bet. When one of the other guys allowed it many of the players would refuse to play hands and decrease action for the reasons I mentioned.
Maybe it’s a cultural thing, generational thing, or just a way that times change. I just know it’s not for me.

Yeah for sure. One other thing that annoys the pïss out of me by the way that I should have said before was that guys see these pros doing this shît on TV all the time, and then they come to the 1-2 game with a $200 Max buy-in and want to run fukking boards four times. Idiots.

It used to irritate me also, but it's just a different game with different math. Easier math, actually.
I will not play 2-4, 3-6, or 4-8 at a tourist trap like on the strip maybe I'll play a 4-8 with a full kill, but that would be the absolute lowest because otherwise it's the same as Keno. You wait for your numbers to come up and then scoop money lol.
But I find that a good 5-10 game or a 5-10-20 game with good players is quite enjoyable. You can buy in for 200 bucks pretty comfortably, the 3 to 500 is probably better. I played a 6-12 once, and it was really fun but the buy-in is easily a thousand bucks and at least 700 to be comfortable. Above my pay grade.

I just hate the self control that limit players have built into the game. I'm not great at no limit by any means, but I can sit there and fold for an hour if the cards aren't there. Tourists can't do that, and will end up playing bad hands and bluffing, when they should also just be folding. That's the only real advantage I have in that game at this point, and I can only win at the lowest staked game with the tourists playing. The people who know how to play will pretty quickly figure out what I'm doing, and then it's time to find a new poker room.
So I guess to summarize for the non poker players. I don't like limit poker because I'm not good at it, as opposed to not liking it because it's a bad game.
