I've used this for numerous things.

Often when I'm implying odds chasing a draw, it gets there and I stack then get berated for my call.

I'll answer "I just play for fun, I'm just here to gamble"

I bet I get added to everyones buddy list.

whats wrong with just telling him that you're running well and are up 2-3 buy ins? You really think the fact that you're having one winning session is going to drive him away?

When you are doing well, up a bunch at a couple tables, or even just have a few buyins on one table, and someone asks "how much you are up tonight?"
I dodged as much as I could, but when pressed, I said "only a little more than I lost last night", which wasn't true, but bought me some time. He kept pressing, but I just didn't answer.

Your play?
