Hearing news of this and now seeing the video. I was shocked, but am not surprised as some games that are not on television seem to always have those drunk guys anyway. But check out this video below of Scotty Nguyen at the Horse 50k final table.
Try and figure out how many rules are broken. I count around 8, you?
Now that you've seen it what was your first reaction. I did have a previous employer that would come over every poker night and barge in and try and take over the game as my roommate at the time could not stop him from getting bombed and telling us these god-awful stories. The only reason my friends at the table let it go is he had deep pockets and continued to play worse the more he drank.
Also missed in all this was the tribute of the tournament to Chip Reese. A great player, a legend in my eyes and recognized by the top players in the world. Reese was the complete opposite of the actions that Scotty Nguyen decided to exhibit.
What type of player are you? Do you need liquid courage to be this obnoxious at the table?
