Tell them what they want to hear. Ignore what you actually had. If they ask, did you have QJ? Yeah! I guess I could've had that!

Or...(somewhat softly, almost to self but audible enough for the idiot) Man, I've always wanted to pull something like that off...(followed by a quick headshake signifying relief that they folded)

Don't worry about what you actually had and that they might 'guess' it right. Treat every guess they do as the same. They still don't know. This could actually give you practice with your pokerface at no risk.

Some do act as if it's social hour on the table. Claiming the friendliness of the game and all that crap. Just have fun with it. Explore the possible creativity of the situation.
