Talking during a hand – Do you like it when people talk while they are playing, or should it be dead silent?
Little bit of talking is fine for me, but talking too much breaks my concentration and I don't like talkative people, especially when I am losing. I want to concentrate more on the game when I am not performing well- Nomad

What's the Hardest Part of Poker?
