Default Re: What\'s a good response when someone asks you what cards you had?

He does not have any right to know what your cards were. Still, just ignoring his question encourages someone to be unpleasant.

I usually say "pocket aces", no matter what I actually held. If the table is in a good mood, you can do this repeatedly and they will just think you're hilarious. If the table is hostile like that guy, you can only do it once or twice. In that case, I would just shrug and say pair of ____ (whatever the lowest card on the board is). It's not worth it to make everyone start thinking seriously and kill the action.
