    backoffs are always two suits tapping me and asking to speak with me b4 my next hand...."we evaluated your play, and you are too good...we are not taking your action here anymore"...plenty of times I had PCs rifle through the discard tray DURING play....hahaha.....had them also try to whisper to the deal about cutting deeper....and one time at a relatively newly opened joint the dealer blurted out, "you want me to cut more off?!?"....too funny

    In my experience they usually go through the deck faster than a practiced counter would be able to, too.

    I don't look at them or acknowledge what is going on when this happens.
