Fun at the WSOP: Pity Me, I'm Bad

The World Series of Poker is underway in Las Vegas, and Pokerati has some entertaining and sly coverage. Here are some quotes it collected from wandering the tables late one recent night:

(An annoying, brash internet player is debating making a large call against an all-in)

Annoying Player: Cmon, what do you want me to do? Tell you what, I’ll do whatever you want me to.
All-in player: You will?
Annoying Player: Yeah, what do you want me to do?
All-in player: …Bust.

***

(Player makes a big fold)

Player 1: I wanted to call. You all know what I had.
Player 2: Oh, you had aces?
Player 1: (Hesitates) I can’t tell you, I’d be giving out too much info.
Player 2: Oh that’s okay, I’m a horrible player, it wouldn’t do me any good.
