Default Re: The Worst Strategy You\'ve Overheard at a Table

I've told this one before in other threads as well

Typical, horrible player filled 2/4 limit at the MGM, 8-9 player seeing the flop every hand, people cold calling 3 bets with trash, etc.

8 players see the flop in an unraised pot (I had folded preflop), Q66 or something like that (queen with a pair showing)

Flop check around.
Turn checks around.
River checks around.

Big blind (some young kid, probably 21-22'ish) proudly flips over his QQ and the dealer pushes him the few chips in the pot.

I'm sitting there in disbelief and after a medium length pause, maybe 30-40 seconds, his young friend sitting next to him asks "Why didn't bet?" and his response

"Hands that good you have to slowplay."
