I love it when a player says he has something and then I call him out on it and find out he was lying trying to get me to fold.  In general, I never believe what poker players say at the table.  I won't intentionally call to see if they were lying but I sure as hell will not allow what a poker player says to change my decisions.

My very first tournament in Atlantic City about 6 years ago I wind up busting this woman out of the tournament and she just had so much to say on her way out....she really hated me so much i think because I called her bluff and as a result busted her out of the tournament.  But i just remember thinking to myself "why does this woman hate me so much?"  I didn't say anything back to her and everyone at the table starting saying things like "i can't believe you let her talk to you like that."  and my reply was "I knew she was talking on her way out.....as far as I'm concerned she can keep walking and keep talking for all i care."  This made everyone laugh.  Turns out I wound up busting a few hands later in this tournament with my set of threes being beat out by a set of 10's.  It was disappointing but my very first tournament experience.

So bad players will say what they will; I found this out from very early on in my poker career.  Best to just let them say what they will; who cares, let them talk themselves out of hte tournament
