    The worst film ever is 'The Quest'

    It starred and was directed by Jean Claude Van Damme.  It co-starred Roger Moore as a gentleman pirate.  And it had the best bit of film criticism I have ever read:

    "When it comes to directing action scenes, Van Damme should be tied to a chair and forced to watch Jackie Chan films until he understands.'

    Worst film I ever saw was, "The day the earth stood still" remake with Keanu Reeves.

    Maybe not a torture method though because it was so bad I actually laughed out loud in the middle of a London cinema on my own whilst watching it. Seriously, seriously bad.

    Caught Seven Samurai btw JimmyH. Absolutely loved it.

    I UNDERSTAND THAT SLOW-ROLLING SOMEONE LIKE DOLLY IS DREADFUL HOWEVER IF IT HAPPENS TO BE THE SMUG TABLE BULLY THEN TAKE YOUR TIME...THEY PROBABLY DESERVE IT AND IT'S ACTALLY QUITE BONDING FOR THE REST OF THE TABLE...

    I SAW THIS IN ACTION AT NOTTINGHAM WHEN X CALLED TO THE RIVER, THE TABLE BULLY SHOWED TOP 2PR AND X RE-CHECKED HIS HAND, PAUSED AND TURNED OVER 5 THEN THE 9 OF SPADES COMPLETING THE FLUSH - EVERYONE AT THE TABLE GAVE A LITTLE SMILE...IT WAS MOMENT TO BEHOLD...

    YES IT PUT MR BULLY ON TILT...YES X GOT ACTION.....AND YES THE TABLE BULLY DONKED HIS CHIPS OFF AND EXITED QUITE SOON AFTER

    EVERY HEALTHY DEBATE REQUIRES A DEVILS ADVOCATE

    For those who are arguing the case that slowrolling can be a valid tactic.

    Imagine you are tanking over a decision against me.  While you are thinking I walk around the table and spit in your face.  That'll put you on tilt as well.

    For me slowrolling is the closest thing in poker you can have to spitting in someone's face, just don't do it, EVER!

    In Response to Cash & Punishment! (***OFFICIAL LIVE SHOW THREAD***):
    This evening, I'd like as many suggestions as possible for a suitably harsh, but legal punishment for slow-rollers!  As the victim of one last night (anecdote to follow on tonight's show), I've concluded it's the most extreme example of poor poker etiquette.  Unless, you can think of anything worse...?

    WHY IS IT POSSIBLE THAT IN EVERY OTHER SPORT IT IS ACCEPTABLE TO CELEBRATE A WIN BUT NOT IN POKER...PEOPLE LOSE IN EVERY SPORT BUT IT DOESN'T PREVENT THE WINNERS FROM CELEBRATING OR ENJOYING THE VICTORY....

    OR IS POKER NOT A SPORT....

    Slowrolling is absolutely horrendous and anyone who does it (intentionally) should be shot.

    @ Dohhhhhhh i think your question is one of pot odds and opponents mostly ie how often has he got the goods (nuts like us but with extensions) and how often is he bluffing. If I'm getting any decent price in Hold'Em I call i'm afraid. If a semi-decent player overbets the flop for a rediculous amount I can find a fold. Interesting question if you were talking Omaha though, much more chance of being in trouble . . .
