why do players slow roll, just had a player with nut strate and pos nut flush on turn against my two pair, so all in and they waited till timer nearly went down to bottom before calling, now if that was me i`d be snap calling quicker than my misses giving me an earfull, i have notice that last couple off days players have been slowing up and some are not even been multi tabling, why is this ??

    I believe this could be a technical problem, I have been hitting the button and nothing happens, sky are well aware of the problem!

    yeah i had situation where on one table, i would hit the button, then they would dissapear but the animation wouldnt happen and the table would sit there for what feels like an eternity before taking the bet - other tables working fine so nothing wrong with connection

    reloading the table seemed to fix

    I've also came across a few regs that slowroll. One in particular slowrolled my full house with Quad kings. They do it to try tilt you. But if your beat your beat ignore it and move along to the next hand. I also keep notes on the slowrollers. Their day will come.

    I believe that's been fixed though, hasn't it? At least according to my own experience and other posts in the Technical section.

    Yeah that problem has been fixed for me.

    I think slowrolling online is mainly due to people multitabling or doing other things whilst playing.

    as i have said if there multi-tabled then i can understand and yes sometimes there could be connection probs, but some off the players i`ve checked up on are not multi-table or connection prob as their doing every hand (this don`t bother either) it when as stated two pair against their nut strate plus possible nut flush on turn card they slow roll, i think it`s a little disrespectfull.

    I think some people dont fully understand that it's a REALLY BAD thing to do to someone...

    The other day someone slowrolled me with quads...

    I typed in the chat box "please don't slowroll me again.".....

    He typed back, "you're a good sport aren't you!"

    So i was in the wrong lol.
