"one time!" for my Californian friends:

"ai-yaa!"

"ni han"

"lay aw-in"

"GAMBAW!!"

and how could i possibly forget:

"long time no eat"

The best thing about "One time!" is that it's always used in a situation where someone's way ahead, something like KK vs AK

They say "One time!" as if this will be the first time ever that a 3 to 1 favorite holds up. Never ceases to crack me up

"One time" is a time-honored gambler's phrase.

Ask the NY/NJ/CT transplants at the simulcast.

This has to be heard at least once every 15 minutes per table here in CaliGAMBOOLfornia.

Let's not forget when the Small blind shrugs, tosses in his chips and says "half-in rule"

I probably start a cliche when I channel Homer Simpson...

sometimes I'll do like Homer does in that episode where he's playing poker, and he keeps going "DOH!!!" after he picks up every card, and then looks sly and goes "oops, I mean...woo hoo..." sorta softly.

Except I do it when I'm behind and on every flop/turn/river - [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

But the most irritating [censored] is the drunk redneck looking for a fight and wanting you to go outside - though it applies to every Phil Hellmuth wannabe who wants to take the game to new levels of dickheadedness - these guys are usually profitable, but it's such a miserable [censored]'s way of winning money that it's almost not worth it...

saw one of these idiots literally every night I was in Vegas back in Dec. Security either was called to escort them out or had to be called to simmer it down. Haven't played in a casino since, actually...and this wasn't just the Imperial Palace either - MGM for one.

People who claim they are 'pot commited' every other hand they play. I've thought of asking some of them what they think pot commited is but I've never bothered to so far.

when the resident rock of the table who hasn't played a hand in the last 2 hours raises utg and gets cold called in 4 spots.

"look's like you scared 'em off."

When two guys turn over the same hand and chop the pot, one guy (usually the older, nittier one) always has to say, "You play that junk?!" with a knowing wink, indicating to everyone he has a sense of humor -- because, you see, HE played the SAME cards!

Wow. Lighten up dude. I've actually never heard that one before but I may have to borrow it.

[ QUOTE ]
I had like ten of these in mind when I decided I was going to start this thread, but I forgot some.

Yeah, me too.
For my money though nothing beats the Ax guy who gets outkicked at showdown, shakes his head and says "that's the THIRD time that's happened today".

There's an awful lot of "I hate when" and "STFU" in this thread but, really, who's not laughing their arses off reading these?

This may not be a cliche but it is kinda funny when the college student with the sunglasses gets a bad beat and loses his $100 buy-in. You can see the fume coming and then the tears well up. This is more of a foxwoods thing. Looks like you're gonna have to waste more of mom and pop's money.
