Message: [QUOTE="BetterThanAvgButNotByMuch, post: 6987007, member: 480921"] So they do it to tilt ppl, ok and not to give away timed tells, ok that's two reasons to do it. I'm pretty sure there is at least one more good reason to take a certain amount of time on every hand. Actually I know of at least two more. Before assuming they're trying to annoy ppl or something, go look them up on sharkscope and see if they're a decent player. If they're a member of this community then see what they're posting about and see if they might have a clue. Or like the OP said, maybe they are just sick and tired of donk plays from losing players and they're trying to influence the game without typing a single nasty word in the chat. They're trying to tell ppl at the table to actually play with half a care about the game and try. So communicating is one reason without getting nasty. There are other reasons and I'm not going to list them. But there is also trade offs with taking a few seconds so they have to figure out what they are and weigh if its worth it. And when opponents actually understand the trade offs then they might not care either. Slowing down the game when those clocks online are in seconds and it bothers ppl doesn't make sense to me anyway. But I know for a fact if someone taking a few seconds a hand bothers someone else then that says something about the person getting irritated as well. I mean, If you ever watch holdem players attempt to play low limit or freeroll Omaha variants? You need a few seconds to laugh at what they're potting and repotting with. Easiest examples are the big pairs: AA69 KK38 especially multiway deepstacked, lol or their post flop play of nasty wet boards when there are straights, flushes or the board pairs and they're potting thinking one pair is good with no draws or anything like they're playing holdem. I mean silly. And you don't have to understand anything about any of the Omaha variants besides basic ABC holdem basics to realize what is going on. A368 in omaha 8, lol. they're playing for a low but how many low cards are in their hand??? lolol but you need the those for the board, lol. makes no sense and they're potting it. Basic ABC basic outs poker there. Not hard. Even if you don't understand outs, I'm playing for a low and i have a lot of low cards but i need low cards for the board, lol not hard or complex. And guess what happens when someone has A2xx, lolol. Or you get into a hand and someone else also has A2xx and they get quartered, whatever. If someone wants to use the few seconds to laugh, watch tv, or not pay attention to the game or to annoy someone or try some edge then. . . whatever. I'm sure there are hypers or some tourn on poker sites that force players to act faster to someone's standards and if thats not fast enough then multi table some hypers. What would somoene say in a hyper? they're taking the full 2-3 seconds or whatever time, lolol. ugh, lol. [/QUOTE]
