Message: [QUOTE="Arjonius, post: 2245388, member: 5332"] In a WPT a few years back, there was an amateur who said he folded AA twice pre-flop near the money bubble instead of risking his tournament life, and only played it when it was dealt to him a third time. Was folding the first two times good poker? No, of course not. Can I blame him for playing super nitty in order to cash (almost certainly for a very large amount of money relative to his BR) in a situation he might never be in again? Also no. For those who still don't seem to get it, slowrolling is when you know you will win the pot and don't show your cards as soon as it's your turn to do so. If you have the absolute nuts, it doesn't matter what position you're in. If you're last to show, it's a slowroll if you don't show your winning hand immediately when it's your turn to show whether its the absolute nuts, just high card or anything in between. [/QUOTE]
