If you were to slowroll anyone, who would it be?

Who would it be and why?

For me, Jamie Gold by a zillion miles. His performance and demeanor in the 06 Main Event was absolutely the biggest turn-off I've ever seen.

Blech.

It depends on your definition of a 'slow roll'.

Often, even if I have the nuts, if the other person was the last person to bet or raise, I'll wait till he shows or mucks before showing my cards.

However, if I'm the one to make the last bet, I never hesitate.

So I said I'd never slow roll.

Now, if the question was, who'd I most like to suck-out on, then it's Phil Helmuth. No question about it. I'd love to be the object of one of his silly rants. I'd even proudly wear a T-Shirt that said, "I was Phil Helmuth's idiot!"

I'd have said Phil Hellmuth in the past, but he's been trying to mellow out recently. Also, I kind of agree with him in being aggravated when he gets beaten by people he's outplayed, due to luck.

Jamie Gold, though, I would be happy to slowroll--I'd also give him an Oscar-winning performance that validated how well he'd played the hand and what a studly genius he was--right before I showed him the nuts. I was particularly repulsed by all his triumphal dances shouting "I TRAPPED HIM! I TRAPPED HIM!" on the, what, fifteen occasions he got dealt QQ and some other poor bastard got dealt JJ, and the chips went in the middle. Have you EVER seen QQ hold up that many times in a row? And he thought that his win was due to his brilliance, not to his being the most incredible luckbox poker had ever witnessed. Then he topped it off by trying to weasel out of a deal he'd made--sheesh! In a perfect world, he would have been run over by a cement truck or something three days after his win, but more likely, he's out there conning people again, with a nice bankroll this time. At least he hasn't been stupid enough to keep playing tournament poker.

Hmmm ... in the context of this poll question, I would say that "slowroll" = "failure to not immediately turn over your cards when the run of play calls for it, or, when it does, doing so in a slow manner that rubs your nuts in the guy's face."

The way you describe it - turning them over after the guy you called - isn't slowrolling in the way I mean it here ... unless you do it in a way that rubs your nuts in his face.

And yes, I meant to say "rub your nuts in his face." Twice. It's Friday!

I want to run the reverse slowroll on hellmurth.

Snapcall and instantly flip over the nuts on the river.
