A trifecta of disaster.

hahahaha, something about this line while looking at Dromar's avatar and after just reading his posts makes this the funniest line I've heard all day.

I like...what if it's five bets for a cap?

[nutfarmer]

After several players check someone will bet and say, "Get your checks at the bank."

We've got a serial poster-bater here. Keep that up and you'll go blind.

This thread is this long with no mention of "no waiting", "as advertised", "ship it"...?

Anyway, the one I like is that in the midlimit games I used to play a lot, there were some regulars who after raising preflop and picking up the blinds would look at their cards again (but not show them to anyone) flash a big smile and say "They held up!" excitedly before mucking the cards.

I like "cappuccino" and "check-republic".

Some loser keeps saying he's getting "sucked out on the river" to things like a flopped flush draw that comes in or a top pair that improves.

You call a river bluff with ace-high in a huge pot..."I can't believe you called with nothing"

Worst cliche pun is when someone misreads a straight, missing the Jack. You know if you've got some cretin at the table what they're bound to say. "Yuuure one..."

i use this one all the time and i know its not funny and i feel like punching myself in the head everytime i say it.

Someone folds to my bet/raise and asks "What did you have?"

"The winning hand."

Saw a post on here a while back and have used it ever since. Anytime somebody asks me what I had when I win/lose a pot and don't show it down, I say "Pocket Jacks". It's amazing in how many situations Jacks can make sense, and the person who asked will just nod their head and believe you.

..And at the same time make you look like a total maniac. I raised huge, a rock hesitated and called. The flop came AK4 I went all in, he thought for a long time and folded. He asked me what I had and I said Pocket Jacks just loud enough for the whole table to hear.


Yes, it works very well both ways. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Another one I'm surprised hasn't been mentioned:

"That's poker."

Usually said in conjunction with "nice hand." Neither expression contains much sincerity when used.
