Default Funny Thing I Saw At Borgata

The game is 80-160. The person who is supposed to post the BB is on rabid tilt. He is dealt a hand and folds it, but the dealer quickly pushes it back to him and tells him he is the big blind. So he posts the blind and the action is folded to a LP player who raises. Everyone folds back to this gentleman in the BB who now decides to 3-bet. Cracked up the whole table.

Was this this past weekend?

A few weeks ago, someone on massive tilt did this in the 80 game, except he flipped his cards over before 3-betting. He showed 26o and 3-bet. The initial raiser just called! (there were others in the hand as well) I believe he ended up check-folding on a rag board with no pair.

I thought your hand was ruled dead at The Borgata if it was exposed and it was not headsup?

Seems reasonable. You need a stronger hand to limp UTG than to 3-bet a late position raiser from the BB.

Not true for cash games. You can play your exposed cards if you exposed them yourself. In tournaments the hand is dead though.

It really wouldn't surprise me if it was Ian who did this. Twenty-five-ish, white guy, always playing the 80 game. Can be a good player if he wants to be, but is susceptible to uber-tilt and often plays really loose preflop, especially shorthanded.
