anybody ever notice that there's similar charateristics among different groups?
asians - very aggressive. love to draw.
middle easterns - loose. bluffs and call big bets alot. tons of money
blacks - real good or real bad....no in betweens
latinos - can't put my fingers on them
There are people who are gonna call you racist + say youre crazy but I totally agree. There are, of course, always exceptions but your "stereotypes" arent too bad.
Asians - gamblers for sure!!!
latinos - honestly dont see as man of them at the table as the other groups.
Middle east - Big rings, jewelry, etc. Always has their buddy sitting behind them so they can show off to him their bluffs, yet doesnt look when he has to rebuy 7 times lol
blacks - real good or real bad, no in between, lol. Actually somewhat true.

Being that I always look at race through a microscope in every situation
I will absolutely agree with Asians being the biggest and wildest gamblers when it comes to poker...
I have yet to sit at a table where they didn't make some big all-in bluff (successful or not) that set the table off and sent money flying...
I had one Asian gentlemen call me to the river with KQ of clubs while I had A10 of clubs....
We both missed our draws and didn't pair...
I all-ined my last $300 into a $300 pot to push him off the hand and he called me down with K high of clubs/no pair (and showed to boot)...
Easily the wackiest call of an all-in bet I have ever seen live...
given all this, I respect their game immensely and have lost my shirt thinking they didn't have the goods at times.
None of this is really a surprise given that many casinos cater primarily to the Asian gamblers and have Baccarat pits with Asian themes (and Asian restaurants close-by).
Matter of fact, the Asian gambler is so respected, MGM had to reconstruct it's casino in Vegas because they had a huge lion's mouth as the entrance, which Asians found to be bad luck. They tore it down and rebuild it into a regular entrance, costing them millions.

No question certain ethnicities have more agressive styles then others. Age is also a big factor. Many times I have been new at a table sitting across from someone I have no read on. I have tptk and someone fires a big bet. If that person is a 20 something asian kid I give him less credit then a 65 year old white guy with a mirage dealers jacket on.

I do notice that about the middle eastern. They usually wear a lot of shinny gold and bling. Also, they usually make the wrong move at the wrong time and end up justifying their decision in arabic to their buddy at the table in loud voices.

Being VietNamese, a large portion of Asian players are VN. Players who have won bracelets... Scotty, Men (Master), JC Tran, Minh Nguyen, David Pham, John Phan, Kenny Tran, etc.

I don't necessarily see that MGM respects them- they just want the money.

Thats racist.
Also, you should get your head out of the microscope because that only shows you a tiny percentage and makes you think that everything appear to be skewed however you want it to be....you'll never see the big picture that way. Yep, I know I'm right so you can save your graduate school big words and psuedo intellect for the penalty box crowd
