He said king-high, I sat there, unresponsive.

Wow. Unless I hate the guy and am specifically trying to ridicule him or something (or he is an angle-shooting liar who will say king-high and then slowroll a set), as soon as he says "King-high" my hand is flipped over.

He was pissed and I got scolded pretty bad by a local who said around here when a guy says "i missed" or "king-high" you're supposed to just show your hand and drag the pot and it's very rude to do what I did.

[/ QUOTE ]

I wouldn't scold you, I'd just think you're a jackass. "I missed" is very different, btw. If he said "I missed" I would say something like "one pair." If he says, "that's good" I'd flip over my hand.

I agree it's a little bit rude perhaps, but if he wants to see my hand it's only fair if he shows his.

Some of us like playing with some level of civility and at some level, still consider this a gentleman's game. I treat the game as such until someone at the table shows me otherwise, at which point I might change some of my behaviors for that session. To each his own.

I think making him show is hand is hands down the best/right play.

[/ QUOTE ]

To each his own. I'd rather not irritate other players and have anyone think I'm a nit a-hole. But, we all play for different reasons.

This is not the first time this has came up by far...and I'm curious how people like Tommy Angelo handle situations like this.

FWIW, bike, I do not like playing with players like you. You are the only type of player whom I would ever consider slow-rolling.
