Message: [QUOTE="Gesshoo, post: 914078, member: 18864"] I can see the problem with slow-rolling when you have the nuts, but having seen the HH it is obvious that the winning hand was NOT the nuts. Do we know when the 5 minutes got used? Was it on the turn or after the flop? Put yourself in the place of the person who has been raised all-in by a top player. If they spent the time on the turn, it is perfectly acceptable to me. If after the river, there is no reason or excuse for it. The chips were already in at that stage. Two other thoughts - it was a very bad all-in play with a small pair and a str8 draw - that might have contributed to the loser's frustration. She obviously hoped to bully and take it down before the river. When that plan failed, she knew she was cooked - any delay in seeing her fate would also have been very painful, I'm sure. Finally, in a live game, they call the clock. Why do they allow 5 minutes on-line? It seems like a very long time? [/QUOTE]
