How big of a douche bag was I?

[sixsixtie]

1/2 nl game
I am in the bb I have around 6hundred.

Folded around to some short stack nancy boy that pushes all in for 50.
folded once again to the button. He repushes for 200.

SB folds. I haven't looked and I say, " oooh this could be fun lets look together." I flip over one Ace, " Uh oh I might have to call." Flip over another Ace, "I call."

Afterwards the dudes pretty pissed. He doesn't say anything but I can just tell. So I try and explain myself. Of course I didn't think I would have aces. I figured I would have rags and I could fold. Afterwards I felt pretty bad because it looks like I slowrolled the [censored] out of him. When in reality I hadn't looked. Anyways I apologized and it was he forgave me once I explained that I really hadn't looked.

I said 75% not because you were a douche by slowrolling him (I mean come on, you hadn't looked yet) - but instead for just slowing the game down and having to make a big deal like everyone would be really interested if you did have rags.

[sixsixtie]

Agreed with the slowing the game down part. Again I wasn't really thinking when I did it. After I thought about it I realized I was at least 75% douche.

I can't vote. Your poll includes nothing between 0 and 75. You fall somewhere between. If you really hadn't looked and seen aces you were not slowrolling him in any traditional sense. But you were as stated pointlessly slowing the table just so you could have some fun while making 9 or 10 people watch you. More like 25% dbag.

I do stuff like this but only when I've been at the table a long time and I'm pretty sure everyone will have as much fun with it as I do.

I also only usually do it after I've called the guys all-in blind and we are on the turn now or something.

Well basically you started out trying to have fun, but the only way it would have been seen as lighthearted was if you had trash. So don't do that if you don't know what you have.

Next time, look first without anyone noticing. If you have rags, then try something like that.

Fun. Guy just found a spot to get pissed that he blew his stack by getting mad at you for... looking at your cards one at a time face up?

I don't see why you have to make a show about it, you're not on TV. Look at your cards and either fold or call.

The only way this is excusable is if you were drunk or it was with a group of friends.

[sixsixtie]

Well I had been at the table a while. I was playing with a friend and it was just something I thought would be fun and break up the monotony. And it did. But it turns it out when you stack someone it appears as though you are having fun at someones expense, which I didn't really mean to.
