Slow-roll Rant... - Page 3 - Poker Card Room - Casino Live Poker Rooms Forum

OK. Just for the sake of argument. What do you think fair enforcement of a rule against slow rolling should be? To me slow rolling is annoying and delaying , but not actually against the rules.

You are correct, it is not against the rules. I'm just saying that in my ideal world it would be. I couldn't really justify killing a hand for it, but I would be perfectly fine with something like send someone home for first offense, week ban for second, life ban for third. It would be awfully tough to determine and make good rules about it though.

In the world where I am king, nothing is impossible! Off with his head for even suggesting that!

There's a custom under-title in there somewhere.

There's a man who tilts like no other when slowrolled.

Luckily I very rarely get slowrolled, as I play mostly limit poker. It's still mostly NL players who do such shenanigans.

Obviously you don't actually know what a slowroll is.

I don't really care
the guy who won't put down his phone and slows the game up hand after hand is much more annoying then a perceived slow roll.
who cares , you lost lets get the cards in the air!

In a slowroll, the guy who lost isn't delaying the cards from being in the air, the guy who won is.

Ha , it used to put me ontilt really hard few years ago. Not anymore but Slowroll can stir up players. Get used with it.
My advice is treat people the way they treat you . Slowroll him when you got winning hands

Very true. I did a graduate level thesis on "fun experienced" as a function of win rate and the results surprised me: there was damn near a perfectly direct correlation between the two. I submitted the paper for peer review and it seems to hold up to scrutiny. Just good science.
