How would you react? B&M Confrontation last night

Very well, how would you suggest a heterosexual man respond in the same situation?

I guess I could have said to grab the jerk's finger that's pointed in your face, turn his palm up toward the ceiling and drive his finger back into his throat, but that's sorta obvious. Anyways, I think it's better to simultaneously entertain the table and challenge the jerk to make the next move... c'mon... it can be an Al Pacino kiss to the forehead.

You can't fault yourself for acting in the moment. I don't blame you one bit for handling it exactly like you did and I don't think I could have done better in the heat of the moment.

If you (we) weren't so passionate about playing, I would have loved to see you laugh out loud at him and say 'nice job rookie.'

I have seen more and more beefs lately and it's usually internet jerks who are used to typing in comments and don't know any better.

But good job with this jerk.

This is the second suggestion on this thread telling him to kiss the guy. I'm sorry, when I'm at the casino taking money off of fish and generally bad players, the last thing I want to see is two men making out. Now, if you told him to grab one of those hotties walking around bringing drinks, threw her on the table and put the stones to her. That would've shown him.
Is it just me, or am I pretty friggin' obnoxious?

Punch the dealer and rip up the cards. Then pee in the guys mouth. Pretty standard really.

Okay, I've already made two smart-ass posts, now a serious response. First of all, the guy was way, way, way out of line, if you ask me. My first response would be to make him eat his shoes, perhaps hurt the man badly. However, I think the answer two your question is shown periodically on t.v. in a commercial advertising Full Tilt Poker. When a man gets in your face, tune him out, he's not thinking about the next hand, you should be. That's actually pretty good advice. Just remind yourself, it's because of jerks like that that some of us actually profit from playing poker. Just take the high road and move on. Don't let some punk ruin your day. You say it was your third sit and go of the day. How did you do? Did you make good decisions all day? That't the only thing you can control. F him, he's a punk. You're not. You're better than that. I certainly don't fault you for the way you responded, but you could've made a different decision and the others at the table would've thought, as you walked away, "wow, he's a real gentleman."

Depending on my mood, I would look at him incredulously and respond with either:

"Whatever,man" or

"Whatever, douche"

A good response to this would be: Is that why she didn't move much?

[pauliewalnuts]

Grab the nearest empty beer bottle and bust it over his head.

"Dealer, have you carded this guy? There is no way this guy is of age if he acts like that."

Nice dig, not obnoxious and yet gets the point across, *and* actually might have a shot of getting a kid kicked out..

Now that I think about it, I think I've played with this guy. I was at Casino Windsor, a guy goes all in to isolate, I go all in, and the BB, who barely has me covered, calls. First guy has pocket 77s, I have pocket AAs and the BB (idiot) has pocket 33s. After spiking the three on the river and winning a large pot, he stood up, shat himself, removed his dirty t-shirt, jumped up on the table, curled into the fetal position, began smearing the feces about his chest while yelling, "mister, will you help my pony?"
