If I were czar of poker, "you're good", "good call", and all the rest would be treated as verbal concessions. I.e., they are the equivalent of mucking your cards.
The reason is because in addition to the angles set forth in this thread, people say them in an attempt to get the aggressor to show first and then slowroll or gain information.
If you are called and want to win the pot, you table your hand, period. None of this BS.
