Maybe he just really needed to piss?

what if his girl was giving him head and he needed 10 seconds to enjoy the climax?

or maybe he had gone to the kitchen for some milk?

lol up until this point, this villain was playing very swiftly with no pause. So I push with this and he waits about a sweet 10 seconds or more and then calls.

I really try to have a good attitude at this game and treat people with respect. Stuff like slow rolling with the "nuts" is totally unnecessary. It's just so great that it turned around and bit him in the ass.

If he was multitabling, had a dodgy connection, scratching his ass or getting coffee a 10 second pause is not that unusual.

Don't read things into delays.

Concur. There could have been a thousand reasons for the delay that didn't involve a "slow roll".

Slowrolling is horrible ettiquette. I love however when hands likes this play out and the guy loses. Thats karma. Another hand like this exact with negative outcomes for me is I push KT from SB guy times out than types into chat hahahahahaha and calls with KK. I was not happy.

By the way there could be other reasons causing the delay, but he could be slowrolling just as easily. Generally when I am multitabling and I have AA I pay a lot of attention to that table.

1) Could be a bad internet connection
2) He could have been excited, done a little fist pump, etc (i've done this before, not trying to piss of my opponent but in excitement)
3) Multitabling
4) Double checking that you indeed pushed on him and that he was clicking the right button. (I flopped a royal, and got a better and three caller, and I triple checked that I hit the call button)
5) Bathroom
6) One of a million things.

And you know what, if he did slow roll, who cares. You beat him in the hand, take consolation in that fact and continue to play poker.

I did exactly this the other day in the $33 and it wasn't intended at all - quick run to the kitchen door to let my dogs out and run back to the table, to see I'm holding AA facing a shortstack's steal push and I've got only a few seconds left on my timer.

I apologized to the table - but only AFTER i'd clicked call. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I wouldn't call that slow rolling. Could be any number of reasons why a ten second pause. Really sounds like whining from you
