Default Re: Simon Trumper\'s reply on ESPN

I view this as a somewhat different beast than stalling just to kill time so players at other tables can bust out, i.e. deliberating for a minute over folding 72o preflop, or spending a minute before calling with the nuts in an all-in situation, or stupid things like that. It sounds like you don't. Do you care to elaborate on why?

Also, wouldn't this kind of stalling (river stalling with the nuts to milk a few more chips) be relatively rare compared to the other kind? I don't have experience with live tournament play, but my experience online would certainly suggest this. It seems like saying that moves like this are responsible for several hands fewer an hour is likely a bit of an exaggeration - or is this more common than I think?
