I didn't know where to post this and didn't want to start a new thread just for this but my buddy Carlo is still steaming after this happened to him in the Foxwoods WPT.

He had about 15K at the start of this hand and his opponent had about 12K. I don't know the earlier details of the hand and they are not important to the discussion. On the turn, villian bets out 1200 into a J high board. Carlo has a straight draw and raises 4000.

Villian starts to squirm and looks like he's ready to muck when all of sudden another player who was out of the hand starts to talk to villian. He tells him not to be so timid, you don't win one of these things by being timid you know.

Carlo is steaming but obviously can't say anything or he gives away the bluff. The dealer doesn't say anything either. So now villian after getting this pep talk re-raises all-in.

Carlo mucked and went beserk on the kibitzer. The floor was called and the guy was given a reprimand to not do this again. I personally think the guy should have been drawn and quartered but a reprimand, not even a 10 minute penalty.

Then the real ironic part, the very next hand the kibitzer guy knocks Carlo out of the tourney after flopping a set.
