My standard one is when I have to post the kill and I'm given the option to check or raise. I usually ask if I can take half of my bet back and muck my hand.

When people birch about slow cocktail service, I usually say, "cut her a break. She's got tables at (insert name of other casino here) she's got to ignore too."

I like that.

On a related note, when you ask for concessions, funny dealers yell "confessions! Table nine!"

I love encouraging people like that at my table. Not only does it make the decent players think I'm bad, but I have to struggle not to laugh.

Table chatter at Ocean's 11, any day, any hour in the low-limit room:
"jackpot blah blah blah blah jackpot blah blah blah blah blah jackpot blah blah blah jackpot blah blah jackpot blah blah blah blah blah jackpot blah blah blah blah blah blah jackpot" etc....

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.

Which also reminds me of another one...

Whenever there's a woop or whine coming from the 1/2 NL table, some guy in the 20/40 game usually says "that kid must have just won/lost a $60 pot".

One of my favorites is when I take down a big pot in a low limit game and toss the dealer my typical white chip, I always here some woman mutter, "A $xxx pot and he only tips a dollar?" My standard reply is that if she doesn't like my tipping, I'll happily let her tip the dealer for me.

Cheesiest thing I ever said was when I was on the button and the person who was supposed to be small blind got up so, there was just a big blind. After it was folded around to me, I asked the big blind if he wanted to chop.

Same thing happened to me once, except instead of chopping I raised and stole the blinds from myself.

I love it when two guys check, then the next guy says "I raise" and bets out.
