I once saw a man that looked like he was sixteen years of age that was a U.S. Marine and he had Tai Boxing training.

I'm told I have this habit that often annoys players, before I make an obvious good move, I lift my hand up, almost touch the peice, then move my arm away, rinse, repeat, rinse, repeat this about 5 times until I eventually touch the peice and make the good move. This irratates my opponents a lot, and it's perfectly legal, no controversy.

I have one in particular I like to use now and again.....if I set a trap involving a sac or something similar, then I make the move and then act as if I've made a mistake for added effect! Works best if its a nicely hidden trap of course....
Another good one is to put a question mark on my score sheet after an opponents move.....lol.
