Last night, I was at the casino again. I was accused of slow-rolling when I personally just wanted to see what he had.
I won't put the full hand history. But I had roughly $120 at $1/$2. (Just remember, cap buy-in is $100). I was dealt pocket Aces from small blind. Someone from mp raised to $12. I reraised it to $30. He flat-calls. Flop comes out Ah Jd 7c. I checked from a small blind, and he pushed all-in. I simply called. Turn and river were both blanks, random cards such as 6h 2d or something like that. It didn't matter. There was no straight or flush possibility, so I obviously have the nuts. But regardless, I wanted to see what he had.
Online, we don't have this problem because raiser or shover is the first one to show and online does all of that for you while the caller who lost the hand has an option to show or muck. He wanted me to roll over my hand first. I told him, "you're the raiser. so you're supposed to show first". He rolls over JQs spades. I roll over my set of Aces immediately right after he rolled over JQs. Table then says "oooooohhh, wow" then he follows it by saying that I slow-rolled. Wtf? I wanted to know what he raised and called my raise with so that I can get notes on the guy. Is that wrong? Is that considered slow-rolling? Is it that if you always have the nuts, then you have to roll it over right away after you call all-in? Maybe I'm missing some etiquette here but I think my table is full of morons who don't even know the meaning of slow-rolling or don't take mental notes on players. For me, I love to see what people have as much as I can so that I get more information about their hand ranges.
