Should this be a juicy home game?/ Is this player a fish?

6 stop teaching your opponents
7 when they say you played bad, nod sympathetically when you win or say "well I never like to fold J6" when you lose.

It's good to have a poker ego but you have to check it well ahead of explaining to everyone how good you play. if you can't handle that, pretend you no speak engrish

qft - most profitable live game i have played to date included a swedish online pro who couldn't avoid letting the players at the table know he was all WSOP-attending, live off poker, shark... Given my inability to perform basic chip-tricks and my early mistake of string betting (first time in a casino!) everyone knew i was a fish. Suited me fine. The Swede lost money during my sessions at that table. I made nearly enough to pay for the swedish and norwegian legs of that holiday.
