an occurance happened when a player slow rolled another player at my table, and i got a bit miffed at it. there was a 4 flush by the river, and when he turned over, he said something like, "i only got a pair... and the king of clubs." the other play got a bit steamed i could tell, cause he had a made flush on the turn and was relieved at first when the other guy said he had a pair, but he didn't say anything.
i turned to the other guy said "slowroll, that's not cool", and he replied, "well i'm losing, so i have to have fun somehow"
he could tell that i wasn't happy about it, i then said, "whatever, if that's the way you're going to play it, then it's your call" as i was beating him up a bit and was planning on slowrolling him as much as i could.
he actually cooled it after that and didn't do it again.
should i have gotten so bent out of shape about it? and if he continued to do so, would it have been uncool for me to do the same to him? where i play. it's just proper etiquette not to pull such moves. does this happen where you play?
just wanted to know other's take on this situation.
