I was at commerce casino playing 100nl (blinds 2/3). I had a decent read on a player, he was looking at his watch frequently, after his beer buzz was wearing off. He was opening with a wider range than everyone else. I had about $200 he had more like $300, he was the button I was the big blind. I had KJ suited the flop came Q-J-10
I flopped opened ended broadway draw, and hit mid pair. He was betting all three streets (so small he priced me in) The river Ace (s/o Barry Green stein 'Ace on the river' lol)
I hit the nutter butter Ace high broadway straight. Maybe he had two pair maybe a set (doubt it) but there was no flush or paired board (I had the nuts) a few players wanted to see a flop and got pushed out. it was about $300 or so in the pot maybe a bit less.
I check to him he bets like quarter pot. I wait, and wait. trying to look like I was unsure.....and it worked!
I said "All-in"
He snap called "Call"
I show, He's in awe confused even, then mucks. But he doesn't slide over the remainder chips!!
The dealer says "Sir, your chips"
He said "What do mean?"
Dealer said "You said call"
This piece of work looked at me and "Are you sure I said call?"
I didn't want any problems, just wanted my chips.
I said "Lets let the floor handle this."
A few players couldn't believe what this dude was trying to pull but stayed out of it. (I don't blame them)
The dealer explained to the pit-boss and then made the villain (emphasis on the word lol) forfeit the $140- $170 that he had tried to keep. the pot was over $650,
No harm no foul. I gave the dealer like $30 @ least.
Look, I have seen players insult each other, argue and threaten each other. That mentality will throw you off your game and even get you thrown out, banned in some instances.
So, at times you just have to let the casino do their job!
