Re: Pass the sugar!
 

Is this a normal expression in Australia?

Re: Pass the sugar!
 

I've used this already in live games even when I have the losing hand. I just wanted to see if it sounded as cool from me as it did from him. I probably need to work on my accent.

Re: Pass the sugar!
 

You spelled it wrong. Its: 'pass the suga!'

And yeah, me and my friends laughed for 10 minutes. I'm def. using it at our next game.

Re: Pass the sugar!
 

If it is, my ex-girlfriend never used it.

I thought it was pretty dumb.

edit: I particularly thought it was dumb when he said it before seeing his opponent had a set with seven outs to the turn, and ten to the river. That's way to early to start celebrating.

It might've been ok after the river, as he gestured to have the chips pushed to him, although then it could've come off as a jerkish, rub your face in it move.

end edit.

From what I've seen so far I really like this guy ;p Maybe it's the accent or his rowdy friends, I dunno.

Oh, I like the guy and his rowdy friends are just fine. I thought this line was dumb though. It sounded like he'd been saving it up, and even if it was spontaneous I dindn't think much of it. Matter of...um...taste, I suppose.

Agreed. I don't care if Hachem is the nicest guy in the world, after that remark(before he saw his opponents cards), I was pulling for the board to pair. That would have made that hand twice as entertaining.

Yes because the only hand that makes him look like a douche is QQ. Nevermind the fact that black could have had AQ/KK/AA.

I can understand Hachem's celebration. You flop the nut flush and the other guy has pushed you all-in and the only hand you have to be worried about is a set. Seriously, 9 out of 10 people here would have done the same thing.

when you compare it to the screaming swede or those morons like the bowling guy it is "non-obnoxious", but when you compare it to a real professional (with a few exceptions) it's still obnoxious, not to mention pre-mature.

Re: Pass the sugar!
 

When he said it he thought he had a lock and by the look on his face think he really regretted saying it after seeing the set.

Re: Pass the sugar!
 

I was only posting b/c i have never heard the phrase pass the sugar in that context, i could care less if he said it with 2 cards to come, i dont get offended by everything like most people in this forum.

You don't have to get offended by something to think its a douchey remark. Okay, the line itself....cheesy.

If it was a clever line I'd say so but still make fun of the timing.

disagree. At that point in the tourny all players are prone to let off some nervous energy. How calmly would you react if you have a chance to double up in a tournament of that magnitude? What other so called obnoxious displays did you see Hachem making? Even the "mature" pros you "point out" will show emotion upon occasion --only a robot sits perfectly motionless at the poker table.

9 out of 10 people may have THOUGHT they had a lock without seeing the set, but I seriously doubt that 90% of the posters here are dickheads... I say call, turn over my nut flush, and wait to see if he fills up, because obviously the only hand that pushes there is a set, KcKx, or AcQx, and since he had the Ac and the dood would have pushed KK preflop, it was pretty obvious what he had.

Re: Pass the sugar!
 

I don't remember the stack sizes, but I don't think Black pushes KK preflop. Hachem raised, Black reraised, Hachem called. Nothing in that makes KK at all unlikely. Pushing would have been a ridiculous overbet there.

There seems to be some confusion regarding the douche quotient in Hachem's remark. I will clear that up. It was extremely douchey. Especially because he looked like he had been practicing in front of the mirror for the months preceding the tournament. Added to the douche factor was the fact that there were two more to come, and the turn card could have had him drawing dead to the river as said sugar was being passed. And to clarify, it wasn't entirely obnoxious, but it still generated definite douche chills as watching a grown man use such a lame, lame line has the tendency to do.

Rounders. McDermott playing Chan scene. Take one.

Johnny Chan: "Ya have it?"

Mike McDermott: "Sorry John... I don't remember... Pass the suga'"

Definite douche line there.

Would've been awesome if Black filled up on the river and threw a packet of Sweet-n-Low at Hachem.

I thought it was cool. Maybe you don't know or none of you know the "real" meaning, and maybe Hachem doesn't either, but it used to mean pass the cocaine. This was back in the '80's.

At least it was original. And give the guy a break, as soon as he noticed what he was up against, he realized that he might be a little premature.
