I also hate hearing "I think you've got me beat, but I'm gonna call."

I was in a hand and made an enormous raise preflop with QQ and an ace-hugging hippy calls. Flop is KJx. I bet and he says "ahhh I know I'm probably losing but I'm going to pay you off". I'm not even all-in yet. Immediately I know he has AJ exactly. Value bet all-in on turn and get called [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I don't go to casino much either but last time I was there, there was this guy who sat down who like tilted me from how long he took to fold. He was on my right so I had to always wait before I folded. If he was on my left I probably wouldn't care because I'd be done with the hand and off daydreaming but my god he took so frikkin' long. Capped his cards. Paused. Looked again. Deathstared everyone through his sunnies. And folded. PREFLOP.

I left about 1 hour after he sat down and a friend took my place. Literally 1 orbit in my friend stacks him on this hand:

Friend in bb with J2o. 4-5 limpers and slow idiot is in sb. Flop comes J27. SB leads out, friend raises, all the limpers fold and sb calls. sb check calls the blank turn after some hesitation and then on river my friend went all in (board is Jhigh, J2763 or somesuch). He takes like 2 full minutes trying to get a tell. He's staring, he looks back at his cards, stares at my friend some more, even goes 'do you want me to call' in that "I can read you" tone. the whole table is like collapsing from boredom. friend just shrugs and leaves the table to answer a phone call (you can do that here, not sure about elsewhere). eventually the guy calls and tables J8o. Dealer has to flip friend's hand since he's not even at table cos this guy was taking so long. J2 is shown and wait for it:

The guy SLAMS the table so it rocks and goes 'YOU GOT BLOODY LUCKY KID' BAHAHAHHAHAHAHA the dealer was trying SO HARD not to crack up.

So yes a bit off topic but he annoyed the heck out of me but got his just desserts [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
