Chau Giang Conversation Event #2 WSOP 2005

#1 11-23-2005, 05:17 AM

I know it was awhile ago but i keep telling people about it and they think it was pretty funny. So i decided to share it with you fine people.

First of all he shows up a good 1 hour and half late. I think even helmuth was there at that time. He's sitting 2 seats away from me and i'd say he plays 3 hands in the 2 hours we were at the table. Anyway our table breaks and we both move to table #5 i believe. (It's about 3 hours in the tourney) Right during the action in front of i'd say 30 people (people watching and players at the table) He starts to have an arguement with some guy that came from another table. I don't know if you've heard chau speak but it's pretty horrible english. Anyway they are argueing about $50,000 the guy owes chau. The guy gets pissed and says "what you don't think i'm not good for it". And chau just continues saying, "just give me my $50,000" in broken english. This continues about 4 - 5 times until chau is just furious. I thought it was just really strange and awkward they would just opening talk about it. Especially during a wsop event ($1500 buy in) The guy sitting next to him is like "man don't you know you're never suppose to borrow money to a poker player" Chau just laughed a little.

If wondering i made it about 6 hours and chau was still in it when i busted.

often with long posts like that, i will skip them and read the first couple responses to see if the original is even worth reading.

sadly i missed the sarcasm.

You and my girlfriend should have a contest to see who tells better stories. That would be an interesting contest.

I appologize if this was a horrible story. Thought a well known professional poker player having a shouting arguement about a $50,000 poker debt while the wsop was going on in mid hand was interesting to share...I've heard chau went broke and i think this shows he's far from it...My appologizes..
