"I have the king"

The king? With a board of 7-7-7-7-J a person goes all in and says "I have the king"?

This isn't commonplace in L.A. games?

The better move is to call with AK and then slowroll the guy. Then of course you humiliate the guy. Straight out of Theory of Poker.

"I have the king also."

"And the ace too."

"You're not a card player, you play cards."

Andy,

I almost forgot about that. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

I highly anticipate the first time someone advertantly slowrolls me at a card room or the first time I hear someone say the phrase "You're not a card player, you play cards."

You should start typing "next case" in the chat every every time you win a showdown online.

That guy was terrible. In his position, not only would I have played that hand infinitely better, but I woulda got the girl too. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Will these words ever be uttered again?

"I only date card players."

When I get caught bluffing and table my nothing hand, I'll frequently point proudly to the higher of the two and say (for example) "I've got the jack". Always puzzles them and forces them to re-analyze the board. Never got anyone to muck though, but I figure I just need to be even more confident when I point to the card and it'll happen eventually.
