Played live locally for 1st time in absolute ages on sat just for laugh mortal lol anyho board of Ax7xA 2 diamonds i had 7 and thin value bet the river was pretty sure the way he played it he had flush draw and missed he min raised ughhhh called he turns over so i'm thinking my read is right then turns Ah nice slowroll great game

Then i shove for like £16(.25/.50) blind as cba after losing a few pots and as i say im pissed get 2 callers then another guy who limped takes an age before saying a gotta call for value then it gets checked down i'd shown the delear my cards board comes A66Q6 dealer says to me i have house the guy that called for value says "anyone got the ace" waits  bout 10 seconds "coz i have" lol wp

Then the best one till last tonight went to play 25fo as was bored and fancied bit of fun pick up aces goes limp raise i 3 bet he calls flop J53 rainbow he bets 1k i make it 2.5k he calls,turn J he bets 2.5k i shove 3.7k he thinks for like 20secs then says "guess i gotta call" and shows AJ eh wtf ??

To be honest, as a dealer, I think people getting upset with slowrolling has spiralled out of control now. If someone doesn't instantly call you with a hand that happens to be beating you, it's a slow roll, now.

Don't really see where your coming from here

Errrmmmm saying " i guess i've gotta call" and taking more than 10 seconds to call when you have basically the nuts and it's 1k to call into a 14k pot is a slowroll to me or maybe he was just that dumb he somehow thought he was losing this is 100% possibility since it was live

Similarly turning over 1st then your Ace for trips is also a slowroll to me why show the King 1st ?

maybe he was just that dumb

I think you will find a huge percentage of players dont even understand what slow rolling is.

I agree it seems to be happening more but ive had a couple where people cant comprehend how it could upset someone. Cant really complain about these people, if they cant even understand this, got to assume they are going to struggle with the game in general.

It's horrible when you have the losing hand, but oh so tempting when you have the nuts...

eg.. small live STT last week, my BB one caller, SB makes up I check

flop is 9 8 8

I check, caller bets, SB folds, I call
turn is another 8


I check, he shoves

I start counting my stack and someone says "shall we deal the river and see who wins"

I finish counting my chips, check the total again, and say... "2,250, it's me" before turning over my cards - K 8 :-)

probably not nice, and not intentionally done to tilt just the way it went. I'll try to be more sympathetic in future. Mind you, he'd called with 9 7 off suit from UTG, and shoved that turn card...

Maybe it's a Newcastle thing? There was a hand at the Virgin Festival in Newcastle this weekend that was just lol. We're playing day two Player A moves in, Player B who covers asks for a count, makes the call and turns over aces!

You'd better be doing the scoring for the RSQ, we're not having any slowrolling in the reveal!

I see EvilPie reading this thread.  He comedy slowrolled me in a cash game at DTD, and a Swedish fella at the table said it was a terrible thing to do and I should have hit him (Matt, not the Swedish fella).
