right decission with that stupid douchebag
I just can´t understand why are these kinda players coming in events like WSOP... I could understand if some kids steals some chips in a "home game" where couple of friends are playing against each other but in WSOP Main Event WTF

------------ i guess my last post wasn't sufficient for any mob points so i'll try to make it a little longer this time. This post is about people being banned for life....just don't leave on breaks....wear a depends if you think you'll have to go to the bathroom or bring one of those electric cigarettes if you need a smoke do what ever you need to in order to not leave the table.......it seems to me that if the money is what your after compromises can be made

Got his just desserts! This kind of thing happens too often in low key tournaments not held in casino's around the world. You can't beat the security camera's at these type of events which is exactly why I only ever play at these type of venues now. The days of those pub poker tourneys is over with this sort of pathetic display happening regularly. What a moron!

The cameras do not catch everything. I found that out in a hand last year where a dealer mucked my straight and shipped pot to AA. The ruling was that because 2 players saw the winning straight that I got the pot. Think that would have tilted me a wee bit, difference between 8k and 42k.
