Slow-Rolling

What do you do if a player slow-rolls you?

Are there rooms that will say something to a player who slow-rolls their hand?

I played in a newer room in the Midwest about a year ago, got slow-rolled on a hand, and I had some words for the player that did it.

Fortunately, three other players at the table also had words for the guy (who was being a [censored] for most of the game).

Dealer had no clue what any of us were talking about....

(BTW -- small stakes game, lots of chips, not a lot of brains)

And expected to be slow rolled every time you're in a hand with that person.

Leaving the session a winner is the best revenge.

The person is a child wanting attention. Deny the prize, reduce the incentive.

leave the table in the exact moment u take a big pot off the slow roller. And say some smartass comment like, "your money is in good hands."

Nothing. What do you care? Ego that fragile?

not much sense getting in an argument over it, but you might want to mention it to the floor, you never know if the floor has had other problems with this player before and the player may be on the edge. Also if there is a problem later on involving this player it gives some background and context to the floor.

I don't mean going running to the floor to tell them, but if yyou happen to be taking a stroll away from the table and you come by the floor, you might say "hey just so you know that guy in the 3 seat is slow-rolling people and so far there hasn't been a big problem, but there have been some words exchanged and in case it escalates you should know whats going on." now you aren't a whiny nit, butif that floor person gets called over because of a fight he knows who the bad guy is.
