Let The Stalling Begin!

Livello 10 : 400/800, 100 ante

With just fifteen minutes separating our remaining players from an appearance on Day 2, we spotted one player going to extremes to assure himself of that honor. The floor was called on the player after he sat still as a stone, remaining silent for over two minutes with the action on him.

When the floorman arrived with clock in hand, the player kept the ruse going and pretended simply to not hear the his admonishments to keep the game moving. When asked if he was stalling to make Day 2 or simply pondering a tough decision, the player finally admitted that he was stalling and had no problem doing so.

His tablemates tried to assure him that, with his above average chip stack, he would most likely be coming back from Day 2 playing at normal speed. The man responded sternly "not if do something stupid and get involved in a hand." Apparently this player has been well familiarized with Murphy's Law and his personal poker maxim is "what can go wrong, will never go wrong if I just refuse to act."
