This is actually a version of slow rolling IMO. Either way, it's pretty damn lame.

when I play poker, I want to take as much money as possible from everyone at the table, and I couldn't care less about that person.

anyone who thinks otherwise will be a loser in the long run. LOL @ people saying poker has etiquette.

Hell no...screw those guys and all that shit. When I am at the poker table I view it like a street fight and my opponents are usually guys that I will never see again so I view them as guys that just raped my girlfriend or something...no mercy at the tables!

I've been to casinos where whatever you announce orally is what you are bound too -- i.e., that guy would be credited with two pair. I've had players at showdown announce a flush, then I will flip over my two pair, and then they will muck. I call the floor over in those situations and inform them of this angle shooting piece of shit.

I was on the dealer button had pocket 4s early positioned raised $35 had 4 callers including me.

The initial raiser bet again $100 other guy folded I thought about it for about 2-3 minutes then called. Now at this point I have no idea what he had but he bet to me $200 I went all in for around $400-$500 he called he flipped Aces showed him my quads he just flipped out.

If I had more money he would have been felted..

Mannn....

TELL HIM TO STFU AND EAT GLUE!

go play cashout on your phone by ch3kraise

play pokerface by lady gaga to TILT the Fuck out of him

U thought about it for 2-3 min on the turn when u made ur quads? dont tell me u took another 5 min on the river when u knew u had him...? whatever... tho

Ok - to be honest I understand/respect poker etiquette but I'd be lying if I don't occasionally break those unwritten rules on purpose to get in under the skin of another player in hopes of putting them on tilt. Most times its a subtle move but I can't lie and say I haven't gone a little over the edge at times. Does it make me an a$$hole at the time? YES...Does it often time accomplish my intended purpose..YES.
