Probably a well worn path this one but what is it with these people.
Just play on a Friday night but getting one every week inc from a Blonde member who should no better.
Quads on a KKKxx board holding K4 (3way all in ) and a guy asking "what you have" on a
499TJ board. Thinks he's won with KQ and gets the good news when the scrote tables 99.

no idea why but ive seen more in 6 weeks at Casino MK, some to me and some not than ive seen in my previous 6 years of poker.

almost become immune I think.  I just never take it for granted until theyve touched the muck or ive seen them nowadays.

it does seem a little more unfortunate when it is someone who should know better....

Pretty standard everywhere now, I just follow order of showdown vs unknowns these days.

Would love to see it punished somehow but realistically never going to happen.

Of the three I mentioned only the nines hand got the mildest of rebuke from the dealer when in fact he should have said "Oi twat, learn some etiquette "

i started out playing live poker in games with lots of chinese guys and they LOVVVVVVVVVVVVE slowrolls so you just get totally used to it.

In fact I remember when I started slowrolling them back thinking it would piss them off and it actually endeared me to most of them lol.

Can usually read a slowroll miles and miles away anyways. Whenever like in that KQ hand when someone has shown KQ and someone is still holding their cards pretty tightly means slowroll imminent.

not sure it's classed as a slowroll, but getting sick of seeing players, even at DTD where it's meant to be the best place, when it gets to show down and 2 left in the pot, they turn one card over at a time, show top pair, get showed one card by the oither player, also top pair, and are reluctant to turn their second card over, it's like a really bad western ffs

got to the point now where i sit there waiting too see both card before turning mine over for the win or mucking them

and if i'm first to show i just flip them straight away

play poker faster at showdown ffs, live game can be v slow, and even with decent structure this one card at a time shizzle cuts into the clock

on nights, rant over

 nothing annoys me more than where people always want to turn their hand over last. Literally 60% of the players in cardrooms are guilty. TURN YOUR HAND OVER WHEN BETTING HAS FINISHED. QUICKLY.

Not a slowroll, but at showdown on an ace high board your oppo declared "an ace"
You both flip an ace over. Then you asked "what with?" He shows his 9 kicker and you make a gesture indicating he's good before flipping you rivered two pair.
First time I've shared a table with you and you fulfilled expectations.
