angle at cp

[ship it pls]

this is regarding a hand i recently posted: i raised 66, sb/bb call, 844 flop sb/bb check, i bet sb calls... turn 3, sb c/r me and i call, river he smoke bets, i call when river is an ace...
as i wait to see his hand he says 'i've got the nut'.... and pauses for a bit waiting (as if for me to throw mine away)... i was thinking about how the hand played out before i mucked my hand since he hasnt tabled his yet anyway, and he finally after sitting there for a while says 'nut...nut no pair' and sheepishly shows KQ... a few of the regulars give dirty looks and one said something under his breath and then the villain says 'what, i thought he didnt have a pair, so i thought i had the nuts'

- i didnt say anything, i finished my session and thought about it, but i was curious what others take on this is... especially since in the 30 game most players just muck when you tell them what you have without seeing it if you have played with each other a bit... any thoughts helpful
