Default How did I do?

So, I stroll into the gym late one night, looking to pump some iron.

So, I see this fatass who thinks he's ripped who I occasionally spot. As he's loading up 100's for some tricept excercise, he greeets me with "Hey, small frye, haven't seen you in a while?"

I took off my hat and replied..."Hey fatass, save some weight for the rest of us."

How did I do?

What's the correct

The correct response as Glenn pointed out was "Hey fatass, do you plan on lifting those weights or eating them!"

That's just plain witty.

Actually it was "Are you gonna lift those weights or eat them, you fat f***?" The exact phrasing matters, do you see why?

The action so far dictates that you are probably way behind. I don't think that you want to "see a flop" on this hand. I would fold.

Is there a cap headsup in your gym? On second thought, I'd fold to a reraise. Screw the implied odds.

I think there is an option everyone is neglecting to consider here. What about smooth-calling his raise and waiting for the turn? He's bound to give you lots of action when you drop the hammer then.

You are completely wrong. Being that he's fat, he's also slow. JV, while a tool, isn't fat, so this guy can't catch him. Played correctly, you can get him to chase you around the gym while you bob, weave, and taunt him, until he finally collapses from exhaustion. You guys need to learn to become multidimensional players.

This is first a problem of bench selection. Secondly, you forget to look left and notice the two hotties doing deep squats.

Being fat and slow myself, please note that our kind have greater than normal abilities in action prediction and spatial relations (To aid us in avoiding obstacles with least effort and intercepting food deliveries) The gym is a very cluttered place full of dead ends and corners. I you're going to fast with top pair and even though you may have a few outs, you will probably lose to the slow played tri(p)'s
