Default Things said in chat that blow your mind and leave you speechless

I was crippled in a MTT once in the money but before I got to the good payouts when I had Aces in the Small Blind and BB called my raise. The flop came something like 44K. I led, he raised, I raised again, he raised again and I pushed. He turned over 99. Of course a 9 hit on the river.

I asked him - not in an antagonistic way (although I was bummed), but because I was genuinely curious - what he thought he was beating there. I said even if I had K2 on a blinds steal that I was far ahead of his nines, that I would have understood him going broke if the flop came 7-high but the King should have saved him when my action screamed he was beat.

"I was gambling," was his reply.

Anyone else have any mind-boggling "I can't even think of a response to that" moments in chat?

I was playing in a cash game tonight and pulled off a bluff on the river of a 4-flush board with top pair against a player who I knew with nearly 100% certainty did not have the 1st or 2nd nuts.

Long story short, he called my bluff with the 9 high flush (the A and K were out), I told him he made a good call and he said "If I weren't going to bed soon, I would've folded."

My favorite that I hear and read a lot is "I know that I'm beat, but I call." Of course, when I hear this is almost always when they are, in fact, not beat... [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Playing an MTT and raise on the button with A6s, shorty pushes from the SB and I call getting 2.5:1. He's got AJo and his hand holds up. He says "You've got no respect for the game."

Live NL game. Donk A raises, donk B calls. Flop comes Q72r, donk A bets, donk B goes all-in, donk A thinks a little bit and then calls. TV-style, they both turn their cards over before the turn and river are dealt. Donk A has 99, donk B has AQo. Donk A says "That's exactly what I put you on!" I, sitting next to donk A, am confused and say "well, then why did you call?". His reply?

"Sometimes, you gotta mix it up"

Live limit game (2/4, IIRC). Flop is A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] J [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], two of us keep going, other guy's got position on me. Turn is Q [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] . River is K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] . I laugh, and check. The other guy stares at the board for a few seconds, then bets. I call, and of course we chop. I ask him "why did you bet with that board? All you did was give the house another buck in rake."

His reply: "Ever hear of bluffing?" I wasn't the only person at the table who was speechless.

And if anybody cares, I flopped a set, he had Q9 (no diamonds).
