Purposefully giving bad info at the table-Image Effects

[hetron]

I was in a 5-5 no limit game, and not involved in the following hand.

10 handed. Call, call, MP1 raises to $40, MP2, cutoff, button, and both blinds call. EP players call. 7 players see the flop for $40

Flop is

Checked to PFR, who bets $75. BB, EP calls.

Button takes it down and immediately is berated by EP1 for fishy play. At this point, just for fun, I chime in with this line.

Me:"His play was fine. You just don't understand pot odds. He has two big time back door nut draws on the flop. The flop bet by the PFR is to be ignored, as it is obligatory."

Which launches a multitude of howls in my direction, most vociferous coming from the EP and PFR, with the usual "You can play at my table anytime" lines thrown at me.

The overall effect of the discussion was that the table ended up playing remarkably loose from there on out.

Anyone else ever tried something like this? Comments?
