fortmoney wroteI agree, I use it as a prelim to explain those particular calls, but it was used tonight AT THE TABLE. Every idiot UK fan its going to see that and have their "over the back" complaints justified. Ugh
If it's done as a prelim (and I personally wouldn't), then I don't see the problem with using it at the table. When I've seen people use it, it's only for a situation where a defender violates verticality by bringing his arms down on an opponent.
