I wouldn't normally try so hard, but didn't have another opportunity I could wait for. I wasn't ready to surrender what I WANTED SO MUCH, that easily, I couldn't guarantee a call with me staying stoic and relying on a flinch "top pair" calling reflex.

Would chop vs ppl i suspect to do the same or recreational players, grumpy live nit regs have no chance, mandatory to start needling them aswell.

I snap min raise this bluff. After everything you've admitted to we've been awarded a pot; Any floor would have a hard time ruling in favour of a chop, I have cards, he doesn't and his are irretrievable, even the dealer has gone to award the pot! He never even showed both cards. I'm pretty confident floor rule in my favour here if I kick up a fuss.

yeah, after the horrid things I've done in the past (already documented on blonde) I am trying much harder these days to not be my natural ****ish self at the table in these kinda spots.
Even gave Mr Mistri some money back recently when he folded a chop... took me a few days to remember, but I thought it was fair.
I'm trying to see the 'light' with regards to the 'game'.

Must admit this is the way I see it, in fact I would gain some perverse joy from not chopping to some people I have played live.

Yeah ofc, my housemate and I have had some ridiculous props in games recently in order to spice the game up. These have included prizes for slowrolling each other/other winning regs, as well as prices for winning big pots and getting the slowroll in with certain hands. We had a decent one right after the WSOP ME coverage came out this year, with that Russian guy giving the huge "OFF SUITED ACES" before he slammed his cards down. Unfortunately no prizes have been won yet, but certainly one way to spice the game up.

It's not about lamb or pork Vinny. You need to read the thread properly.

Yh Jp has a point as well if I had even the slightest inkling this person WOULDn't do it for me then I'd instantly take the pot, if I didn't know I'd give them the benefit of the doubt and assume they would do it and chop it up.
There are a few guys I play with who are so tight and miserable that i'd love it if they made a mistake like this against me, the fact as well that they 100% SHOULD know better as well will make it all the sweeter

bet the end, guy calls, I show AT. Guy flashes an Ace and slides his cards in.
Pot is in front of me when my friend says, "It should be a chop"
Get better friends!
