Well last week I was at hawiian gardens casino playing in a 2-4 hold-em game. At my table were 3 maniacs who would raise blind all the way to the turn card at which time they would finally look at their cards. Needless to say it was a beautiful game. Only one problem, One of the maniacs was a drunk who was yelling at people at the table. The floorman was called over atleast twice while i was seated. One of the maniacs left and some other tight passives also left because this guy was so rude. This was not good. After about a half an hour he won a huge pot off of me by hitting a miracle runner runner, i mumbled something and then told him nice hand. The very next hand he got chech raised by a rock on the river and threw a tantrum like an 8 year old. He called the guy every name in the book. At that point I stood up to go outside to have a smoke. He then stood up also, and told me to sit down and called me something i couldnt make out. I had enough of this guy scaring other players away while the floorman would do nothing to warn this guy, and proceeded to walk around the table to his seat where he was still standing up. I am 6-2 and 280 pounds he was about 5 foot 4 maybe 125 pounds. I walked right up to him and told him to calm down and if he wanted to tell me what to do he ould come outside with me while i have a smoke. At this point the floorman comes back to the table over hears me say this and pulls me aside and warns me that i may get kicked out or atlest have a 20 minute time-out. Now security is here and the whole table is taking my side including the dealer but i was in the wrong i guess for walking over to his seat. security lead us to their office and the casino manager wanted to know the story behind all this. he interveiwed me first. I told him what had happened. The drunk was now as smooth as they come. He was real calm and it didnt look to good for me at this point. Everyone then turned around to interveiw him. He was slick saying I was the one outta control and he feared for his life. He then smurked over at me. I was like a statue standing there. I was studing him and quickly thinking of how I can get out of this mess without getting in trouble. It then came to me like lightning. I need to set this guy off to show his true colors. When nobody was looking at me except the drunk I winked and blew him a kiss. He went ballistic. Security had to restrain him and take digital photos of him. Needless to say i returned to my juicy game where I was the nice guy i was soft played many hands. just a little story i wanted to share with you guys.....
