No, I don't do that, unless sometimes it happens by accident.

I never do this on purpose, I usually play at a pace that is comfortable for me. If I need to think before making a decision, then I use the time I am given and think, but if the hand is not very important and the pot is small, in this case I can make a decision instantly, and it does not depend on the pace at which my opponents play. I usually play the poker that is comfortable for me to play and I have no goal to manipulate anyone or use any psychological techniques to somehow influence my opponents. And I do not like it when I understand that my opponent is deliberately trying to slow me down, so I try not to do the same with my opponents. I think a person should sit down at the poker table in order to play poker, and not in order to upset the psychological balance of opponents.

No. I've never slowrolled anyone in my life, I don't really get why people do it. Can someone explain what the point is? In a live game I'd Matusow you👊

Maybe against someone you are good friends with in a home game it could be funny but other than that its just an ass move.

Another point playing online is get that call in quick once you've decided before the Gods smite you and you get an internet lag or disconnect🤣

Love the response LOL. I agree, I don't think it's cool to slow roll. I haven't done it because it's upsetting when it's happened to me. I think it'll be funny vs a friend, but not random people. There's a man that goes to my local casino sometimes and he thinks it's cool to do it everything. Many people aren't happy with that guy.

No, I never do that, at least not on purpose. I don´t undertstand why you would do that intentionally.

When our group of friends play together, then we do slowroll each other at times, but with other people I try not to do it.

I don't think that I've ever done it. At showdowns I immediately toss my cards onto the table face up. If I'm still in at showdown, you'll always get to see my cards.

If the other players play slow I do it too. I feel they don't respect me, so why should I respect them and that's why I do it.

No, I think it’s disrespectful. I prefer to play with good etiquette — win with class, lose with grace.
