Message: [QUOTE="Nutcracker69, post: 3120111, member: 153810"] You're not a true degenerate if you can't find ways to do this and exploit it. IMO it pretty much "has" to be live for it to within the rules, because saying "I'm going all in when it gets to me" no matter what your actual action is should be a punishable offense and the site operator has a clear history/snapshot of it. I report that kinda shtuff to ACR all the time but "I'm not allowed to know the findings out" My favorite of all time wasn't the biggest pot I ever snaked but it was a ton of fun. Live 1/2 100-300 game. I had most likely started with 300 and so would've had probably about at least 450-500 in front of me at the time. The Hero (cuz I'm the villian here) has a good size stack too but I might have him slightly covered. Sorry that I don't remember the board, the exact bets, etc., just what I did. He had raised preflop and I don't know where I was in terms of position but it had to be early because I used my patented "I check in the dark" move. He fires every street. When it comes to me, I am closing out the action so on the flop I verbalize "I call and I check dark"... To the river, we are now head's up. PLENTY of times in odd spots that I didn't have a good grip on I had checked dark on the river, too, but not this time. My thought process was, if I HIT my card, it is well disguised and he was enough of a calling station that I wanted to shove to get paid off. My other thought was even if I miss my card, depending on board texture I might be able to convincingly strength and I will want to donk bet. This might require a lead, a small raise by him and a big raise by me to close it off. Even though he was a calling station most of the time, in the right spots with enough pressure he could find a fold. So I haven't checked or acted at all. River comes and almost instantaneously he turns over his cards. He says something. I don't remember if he had assumed he had won and it wasn't worth a bet or he was concerned that I had rivered him and was upset. But I indicate to the dealer that I haven't acted yet. The dealer is unsure, but thinks it's true. Other players at the table concur and say "yeah, no action yet." So the floor has to be called. Everything is explained. NOW at THIS casino where I played REGULARLY for YEARS I'd say 99% of the time, they ALWAYS go with whatever the dealer says. (Aside: This includes a time when the dealer inadvertently shoved an all in pot to the wrong player worth 4.2k. Since I had won, I complained, they got the floor the floor sided with the dealer even though I said "flip back over my cards and see for yourself" (the dealer had turned them over and mucked on top) no "okay, check the video" no ok, so I take a break and go to security and ask to speak to management. Eventually I get the floor manager's boss and they DO check the tapes and they DO give me the money -- damn right) So the dealer says "yeah, it appears as though he did not check, even though he had checked dark before and had done so most of the night." Floor explains to the now very distraught gentleman that I have not acted. Even though I now see his cards, I get to bet if I want. It was a good sized pot, and he had a decent enough hand, maybe top pair like K or maybe a K that could've lost to an A on the river. Whatever it was, I wouldn't be excited about holding it and having it exposed with the player still to act. He basically shouts "if you give him this pot I will f*ing pick up and leave." I couldn't resist, it was too easy. Of course he had me beat, I had missed my draw. I didn't even have to bet all in. I either bet 2/3rd or maybe full pot. He doesn't even think, he turns his cards back over and mucks them, starting to collect what was left of his chips, bitching the whole time. I couldn't resist again, maybe if I were lucky, since he hadn't technically given up his seat I could SUPER tilt him and get him to sit back down and donk it off. I show my hand. It was probably like J high or some nonsense. The whole table erupts and the guy shuffles to the cage quicker than I'd seen anyone before. Only one person at the table felt bad for him and said I was an ass. Two players at the table said it was "awesome" because he had acted terribly all night and deserved it. Unfortunately for me, I had a halfway decent relationship with that particular dealer before this "incident." He made it clear to me on a subsequent trip that he felt like I had "used" him. (Okay, I kinda did, but I had to) He was pretty pissed, never spoke to me again unless he ultimately had to and couldn't hide the fact that he seemed to always root for my opponents. I mean, sht, if I p*d off the DEALER that much, I can't imagine how the dude I expose-bluffed felt! Never saw him at the casino again. [/QUOTE]
