Say "Oh [censored] pizza!" and open fold.

1.) Why would he pass the deck to you to cut if he had very amateurishly stacked it?
2.) Why didn't you cut it?
3.) What happened?

open fold is pretty bad because you will basically further increase hostility and their fear towards OP.

I think it would be best to check-call all the way trying to keep the pot small, making it look like you were slowplaying it, but act all hellmuthian on the river and just call w/o nuts and say 'it didn't feel right', also act in same manner if guy starts overbetting.

this way, it not only do you not go broke, but they will be somewhat reliefed of their anger of losing money to you so it's almost a win-win situation. you gotta let the other guys win time to time.

after that try to improve your social relationship with people that play there and see if they try to pull this again. if they keep doing this to you, just stop going to the game because soon they will arrange a drive-by or somethin on you otherwise.

So the guy to my right shuffles and I notice that he's fake shuffling, keeping the top bunch of cards in the same place. He's pretty good but I spent months practicing this trick so I know what to look for. I dont say anything, and tap the deck when he passes it to me to cut.

Any game where the guy about to deal shuffles his own deck is suspect from the get-go, IMO.

Also, if you don't cut the deck or otherwise mess up the setup deck, you deserve to lose your money to these idiots.

go all-in get called and b4 the turn pull out your desert eagle and say "i win, I win, I win" if the quads hold up play it off as a joke, if they dont shoot em all and say this is the dead mans hand. of course if u dont have the DE u just open fold your cards face up and say u thought this was WPT rules and the hand was dead. Buy the DE and shoot them later.just kiddin fold.

this story doesn't make any sense, what good is stacking the deck if he's going to allow you to cut?
