I agree with you on changing the rules. It's supposed to be to prevent collusion. In this case, there were only two players involved pre-flop. There had been no "history" between the two involved (at least on that day). Player 1 is often a jerk.

I never get upset with how any one plays their cards or what they say to me. In this case, player 2 was running badly, he's a gentleman all the time, and what player 1 did was just plain rude.
