What is the worst thing you have ever done to another human being?

[The Stranger]

When I was in college, I was almost always either drunk of hungover. Therefore I rarely made it to class. I was academically disqualified, went to summer school, got reinstated, and got DQ'ed again.

Whenever my parents would call and ask me how I was doing in school, I was BS about how well I was doing so they would continue to help me out with money.

In High School I had a good friend who ended up trying to get my girlfriend to break up with me as well as starting rumors about me. So I found out that he did some things he shouldn't have and left an anonymous note on the Superintendant's desk. He was expelled from school less than 2 weeks before graduation. He still doesnt have a high school degree because of that.

What have you done?

He deserved it.

That is a bold statement off of limited information. Maybe the other guy knew/thought she was cheating on him and the friend was simply looking out for him. His only fault may of been poor execution. There are two sides to every story you know.

Not the worst thing, but it was pretty bad, and it actually is poker related.

This May, we get out of school, and drive from Austin to New Orleans to play the WSOP N.O. circuit. A long time friend from New Mexico meets us down at the event. We all decide to play in the first event, the $200 NL holdem tourny (thats a large buy-in compared to our current poker rolls). 833 players, Harrah's is packed, and we start the tourny. Now we all discussed before how if somehow we get at the same table, we will try to stay out of pots together. Sure enough, within an hour, somehow my friend from NM gets sat a the same table as me.

Prelapse: a few hands before was a horrid ruling. I am in a pot, guy bets on the flop with an open ender straight draw, I have AJ, top pair currently, I raise him, he goes all in (little more than the raise) I call. Dealer went ahead and dealt the turn card before I called. They call floor, ruling is to take the current turn card, muck it, burn and turn, the turn and river cards. In all the confusion, the guy actually makes his straight. He made it on the river. So that never should have happened, and it was a large pot so it certainly pissed me off.

So my friend get set at my table. 2nd hand he's played, is currently dealer, he raises with AQ, I as BB, call with 74 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. (Note: the tourny structure had people start with 1k in chips, and after two 40 min blind levels, its already at 75/150 so stakes were already pretty high). Flop is 9 5 3, with my [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] flush draw. 4 current players, it checks all the way to him. He decides to bet AQ all in to steal the pot. I was still quite upset about the last pot I explained, so I sit there, somehow a blood vessel triggers my brain, and I say "call". My brain obviously just lost it in a short 2 sec span. The other 2 players fold. We turnover our hands, and I realize I made a bad error. Turn card, [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], and that sends him packing.

I then reallized, I just busted my good friend. Whoops! So yeah, he walks off, I come back to the room later that day to find "7 4" written on about 20-30 notepads from the hotel all in my luggage. After 11+ hours of play, I got 32nd out of 833, won about $600. We talked about it earlier, and he said he was happy I placed so high in the tourny, but I knew he couldn't believe I busted him on a lowly draw. I told him I still remember that every now and then and keep saying I am sorry for busting him. He and I are still good friends, but I felt horrid for doing it to him.
