Verbal Strokes

[dik9]

Action has just come around to you

Remember Amarillo Slim's "Let's go" fold?

Put some gems of your own here.....

I will start the ball rolling

"I Better check"

"All-in-all that was a terrible card for me, I pass!"

What have you heard at the table, or what have you used......

"Well, Lord knows I didn't want to see that...ahwell I might as well" (all -in)

And one I love "Well, Doyle tells me I should raise so I guess I'd better"..(reraising on a complete bluff...you can see someone who's read supersystem starting to rack his brain as to what hand you might have)

[MrMoves]

"Raaaaaisins, I love eating raisins.  Check."

"Check, ered carpets make me dizzy"

"Pass, me a cup holder please"

Not quite a stroke, but a good line anyway.

When facing an all-in reraise for a total of £500 in a cash game, some Scottish guy at Gutshot whose name escapes me remarked

"Well, I've called the fiver, so I might as well call the remaining £495"

"Raaaaaisins, I love eating raisins.  Check."

So that was what Jamie Gold was eating, ready for his stroke

"ah, its yours"
Other player mucks to take pot as he thinks "its his"
Speech player still has cards in hand and declares pot is his as other player mucked his hand.

Dirty move but seen it a few times against inexperienced players.

when in position to do so i like to announce check in the dark when sitting with aces or kings!     and theres nuffin like hitting the flop and one or two table mateys have hit a bit of it as well!

[lazaroonie]

i once had a guy on my right , tell us it was his first live game - he looked about 12 years old.

anyway, I had raised, table folds round, to him, who shakily puts a load of chips into the pot and annouces re-raise.

I turn and bellow at him, "dont every fkin re-raise me again, you understand"....before collapsing in fits of laughter 10 seconds later (and natch, folding).

he looked like he was about to cry...

would this be reguarded as a stroke?

playing a pot limit re-buy in tourney in the middle of the feezeout stage. i limp in with pocket sixes along with 2 before me and 1 guy after me, bb checks flop comes - all checked round to the guy on my left bets the pot-folded back to me i re reraise the pot . then he re pots it!. at this point if i pass i still have about 15 bbs left so i can just about get away from it but with this pot ive got a real shot of winning it.(which i did by the way)

i sit for a min thinking then say "if i fold will you show me" he say no probs after a bit, so i think for another while then say "ok im all in" he calls and shows  , turn brings  and i win the pot.

then all hel breaks loose at the table with him and his 2 mates sayin "you canny f****in dae that! (scary glasgow accent) what a stroke that was blah de blah de blah" scary mate say "if that was me in the pot with an u done tae me youd know all about it ! OUTSIDE"! lol

personally i didnt see the problem with it and would do it agin was just trying to get a read on him, wasnt as if i already had the straight he had the better hand on the flop! didnt help when i knocked the 3 of them out within the next half hr

so what yous think?

LOL, i'd like to see some one try and take the chips away from me because i'd mucked after the guy had said that.

Don't think you've done anything wrong at all. If he'd have won the pot its odds on they wouldn't have reacted in the same way. Just sour grapes from some losers if you ask me.
