Default Re: The Nuts... now what?

Seriously, this pause tell thing is retarded. Do you find yourself getting checkraised when you get up to get a drink of water, or if your connection lags? I know I always get raised after I take a few seconds too long looking at action on another table. Last night while I was looking for something else to watch on TV, someone check 3-bet me on the river.

Time based tells are stupid. Do you think this guy would've checkraised you with a lower flush or with a set because you paused?

He was check/calling for runner runner, hit and got cute. If he was actually paying attention to anything he'd have folded to the 3-bet because at that point what does he beat? Unless of course you paused again.
