What do you do when you win a huge pot online?

[Sooga]

Do you just not do anything and treat it the same as any other hand, win or lose? Are you playing 8 tables so you don't have time to do anything? Do you say 'Yes!' and leave it at that? A fist pump? Something else? I wanted to do a poll on this, but there are far too many options out there. Personally, I jump up out of my chair, pump the fist, and say 'F*CK YEA, F*CK YEA MOTHERF*CKER... F*CK YOU!'.. I get myself pretty worked up. This is only for really big pots though.

I jerk off... j/k. I don't do anything.

Only when I suck out on the river do I sometimes start laughing and shouting.

It varies. Most often I do nothing. I almost never do anything when I have the nuts because I already know I'm going to win the hand.

When I do react usually its because I'm having a very bad session and the big pot is very uplifting. Or when I've made the crying call in a big pot that I'm pretty sure I've lost but it ends up coming my way.

A fist pump and sometimes a "YES!" is my reaction.

But because I play limit and there's almost never a hand big enough to make my session, much less my day or week, I tend not to be overly hystrionic about any one hand.

I usually do a Dave Chappelle "THAT'S RIGHT!"

I kick your dog.

Every once in awhile with the 25BB pots at the limit tables I will fist pump Napoleon Dynamite syle. YEssssssssss!

DMX from TILT says " Get it on the floor!" Ok, this doesn't have anything to do with your question, and DMX isn't even in TILT.

It's sort of an old habit I've had since started playing video games back in the day. I would do it whenever I had been stuck on a difficult part of a game and had finally passed it.

I give the TV the finger and mutter some expletives.

In poker, I only do it when the situaion was particularly difficult, and I've made a really tough play.
Obviously there has to be a positive result for me to do this. But you get the picture.

I never do this in live play. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
Oddly enough, I really don't get the urge to do it in live play. I think it's all about the screen.

I stop crying about the bad beat I just took two minutes ago.

Well, most of my big pots have come off of allins preflop with High Pocket pairs.

So first I pray for a fold (if there's dead money).
If called, I pray for low cards (no flush/no straights) to avoid likely sets/no ace/no king.
Then I take a deep breath. Thank my lucky stars because 80/20 is good, but never guaranteed (especially if you have a good chunk of your roll in play)
Kick few bets back into the game and leave if I don't hit anything
