No, but the fact that he's the president of that casino gives him the right. Moron

Where does it stop then? Can the vice president be a dick to everyone else but Bobby? How about the dealers treat the chip runners like [censored] because they think they are better than them?

Sure it is his casino so he can do anything he wants, why doesn't he just fire everyone who looks at him wrong? Or fire the dealer for taking a drop while he is playing in the game?

etc....

Did you miss the point where Bobby was also a customer? The security guard had no idea who he was and did not have to believe that he was the President. If he chooses to curse at a customer, he risks his job if it is brought to management's attention. Unfortunately for him, they were one in the same.

Yes and this is what pisses me off the most. He could have just let the guy do his job, but because he is the president he feels he can do whatever the [censored] he wants.

I guess I would make a shitty business owner because I would tell stupid [censored] customers to [censored] themselves. At one of the last places I worked I could tell the customers just how wrong they were when they acted up and said stupid things without merit, and my boss would back me up 100%

Didnt he finish 10th or 12th or so in that WSOP circtuit event... he can't be that bad

[/ QUOTE ]

well lets consider it this way. I'm not a good tourney player but if 10k meant nothing to me or you and we entered a bunch of them we'd finish 10th once in a blue moon too.

That's why P. Phillips, Harrington and others who play a limited schedule with good results are much more impressive to me than guys like who place all the time but also play every tourney under the moon.

You really think the security guard is in the wrong for acting the way he did?

[/ QUOTE ]

Are you kidding? Of course he is in the wrong. You don't berate customers, period. Doesn't matter if they're playing in the big game or the 2/4 table, they're playing at high stakes for them, and it is up to the casino to provide the atmosphere the customers enjoy.

Many competent-to-great players would be a fish in the Big Game.
