Re: Why do players do this? Slow roll in the Trop 4/8 game in AC....
The whole idea of a slow-roll is to briefly make the other guy think they have won the pot before squashing their excitement by showing down a better hand that claims the pot. That is not what you described.
If he really wanted to slow roll you, he would have waited for you to table your aces and then when you started to get happy about the win, he'd have rolled his pocket 5's. Slow Rollers aren't happy with just winning the pot, they want to get under a player's skin in the process.
