Then this hand happens: A few limpers, Phil raises, I look down at 55 and call. Several others call. The flop comes A 5 x rainbow. Phil bets, I raise. All fold to Phil who goes in the tank. I stare at the felt thinking, "call me!!". He puts his fingers on my neck to take my pulse.

Does anyone else play this differently? Why didn't you call? There's a lot of limpers in this pot. Furthermore, I think it removes the 'check-the-pulse' tell. Although I wonder about the ethics of it.

Good question. Sorry, I typed the flop wrong [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]. (not much sleep the last week or so [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]) The flop was two tone, not rainbow. That makes a big difference in this hand.
I didnt care about the ethics of the pulse thing at that point - I thought it was pretty funny. Now if that ever hapens at the WSOP, I would have an issue with it.
