I was really just hoping for some insight from players who do this sort of speech play often, so that I might have better general information next time it’s used by a player in a hand against me. I don’t really say much at all ever during hands so I thought I might learn some useful info by asking the question.
I don't talk much while in a hand, a large part is I usually don't speak the same language as the people I'm playing against anyway.
But there are definitely some guys who feel if they get bluffed is like an insult to their mother. It can pay a lot of dividends to 3bet these guys with hands like 38o sometimes and then show it.
I once had A7 on an Axx A 7 board. I had opened pre, this guy I bluffed earlier defended. I cbet top pair, he calls, turn trips and bet again, he calls, get a boat on river, he leads, I jam. He goes into the tank and finally flips over K high. I assume this is his way of conceding. He eventually calls. Thought I had 27 or something and didn't want to let me get away with it.
