If he turns down the deal over "stolen blind", he's officially my fav. online player of all time.

yeah - i understand why he went with the deal but incha did [censored] him over with that blind steal while calling for a pause. i was really hoping he'd say "[censored] you, no deal".

from the beginning, he should have asked for a chip chop based on chips BEFORE that last hand ... incha is asking for a pause WHILE stealing.

I thought they were all calling for a pause and it just so happened that it fell right after majic's big blind. Someone is going to lose the hand right before the break. I didn't have much sympathy for majic's hustling lol.

from what i've done/seen regarding FT deal-making, the whole table usually "sits out" while waiting for a mod to show up and the blinds just keep getting folded to the big blind to keep everyone even/prevent someone from taking advantage ... i think majic had a legitimate gripe.

They sit out when some mod/host isn't already there. OBV Lee is there the whole time at the FT of the Stars Sunday so this isn't necessary as he will manually pause the tourney. But even in a sit out scenario in lower buyin tournies, then someone gets a free walk and the others get the short end of the stick. Someone has to take the short stick. I have never seen that gripe before and don't believe it holds much merit. From what I saw Lee, hit the pause button when all players had agreed to a break and it must fall on someone's blind. Tough luck for them.
