Hand Interaction
You can try to induce them to double with all these by offering to go partners if this is to be a big part of your game. At one of my local houses, there is a likeable man who just sits at the table in high limit, merely kabitzes with the players about baseball, the pitlady's physical attributes, tells jokes, etc., and offers to go halves on other players' doubles and good splits. He almost never is dealt a hand of his own.
Shad, I usually play at rather uncrowded tables, generally about three-handed. So no, I don't come near three interaction plays per hour. But at a six or seven handed table, somebody else will have either 8 vs. 6, or 9 vs. 2, or 9 vs. 3, or 9 vs. 7, or 10 vs. 9, or 11 vs. 10, or 11 vs. A, or A/7 vs. 2-6, or A/8 vs. 3-6 about once every six rounds -- or ten times per hour.shadroch said:
