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.

So if he wasn't slow-rolling what would you call it? Statements like "I know you don't have a five" are slow-rollers favorite because he's giving you some sort of hope (while knowing full well that he crushes you).
