Seriously, poker would be so much if everyone was out to slowroll everyone else. Think of the laughs we are missing out on.

[The_Taj]

don't slowroll.....seriously. It may be funny the first few times you do it online or at your local casino but if you get the reputation as a slowroller very few people will want to play with you or even associate with you.

Why not just put your feet up on the back of someone's chair at the movies? Why not just mug everyone that is weaker than you? As long as it's +EV who cares if they get upset.

Because both are -EV. You can still get in trouble for mugging someone weaker than you, and you can get your ass kicked by someone who you decide to put your feet up on their chair.

The last sentence is QFT.

I'll give you a hint: I'm not suggesting that everyone should start slowrolling each other.

I have actual hatred towards most of my opponents, whether they suck or are good. I hate their names, their avatars and everything they do. I honestly would have no problem with them dying right there and then while playing.

So I'm alright with slowrolling.

i can turn off chat, i dont think there is a possible sn that i could find offensive that would get through the ftp filter, but slowrolling is an act that i cannot turn off slowrolling. people who say they don't care about etiquette, so its okay to not pay a loan back just because you get in a fight with the lender, its okay to grim someone in a flip, it is okay to do what vig did and run a huge scam based on poker player's sympathy, as long as you make money? hell, its just people over the internet who you will never meet, so why does it matter?
