Re: Severest Slowroll Ever?
[ QUOTE ]
My favorite is the classic Two-Pair-Slowroll. It is rare, because you can only use it in special circumstances. First of all, you need to have Quads, and they need to be concealed well enough for the "2pr" claim to be believable. Secondly, your opponent needs to have a hand that crushes 2pr, but not quads. Third, you need to have a pretty good feel for your opponent, or pretty good running shoes on. Seriously. Then, as the excited player shows down his flush or set or whatever, you look sad and say something to the tune of: "Oh, that's too bad... all I have is Two-Pair... Eights and....... (long pause before rolling).... EIGHTS!!!!" (Scoop pot with both hands grinning wildly)
Beautiful.
