Live poker, 9 handed.

I raise preflop get one caller HU play, I have AQ

Flop KQ7 rainbow

I c bet 50-75% of the pot

villan takes time

CAN I TALK ABOUT THE HAND ?

Example : "I have AK, your jacks or no good" (or something similar). You get my point

It has been explained to me by a pit boss that if it's HU you can talk about the hand. I believe your example is fine. This is in general... always best to check the house rules.

I'd say so but generally I play in fairly informal games where everyone knows each other and the TD/boss enough for there to be jokes.

This wouldn't be acceptable where I play at a casino in Leeds.

i think what will happen is ur opponent will not let it phase his judgment and make the correct discision regardless of what u say or he will become ur enemy at the table and take all ur chips by gambling at u on purpose when he's on tilt! lol

i recommend "i have AT, your jacks are good"

makes more sense here imo

I always thought you weren't supposed to say what your cards are, or what they aren't for that matter. Rather, you could say "My hand is good," or something to that effect.
