Default Re: Did you notice \"The Sheik\" on the Raymer knock out hand?

DUDE! I just noticed it too. I can't stand that [censored]! I never thought after last year's WSOP that I would cheer for Mike Matusow, and actually hate someone else at the table more than him!

This dude is a total a.ss. Imagine if he had won the whole thing, he would set poker back 10 years.

After looking at the tape again, I think he may have been referencing Mike Matusow, as oppossed to Raymer's exit. If you notice, he claps which shows appreciation for Raymer, but his obvious duel with Matusow and his resulting obvious tilt leads me to believe he took the opportunity during the crowd's applause to look at his buddy and gesture to him the way he feels about Matusow in general, or the way that matusow was standing and cheering for Raymer.

I think it has no reference whatsoever to Raymer.

This is correct. I'm not saying the Sheik is a great guy...but he was calling Mike a jerk-off, not Greg.

Seemed to me like he was implying that the crowd was (figuratively of course) fellating Raymer.

That is exactly what I think. The tongue in cheek addtion to the gesture made it a clear fellatio reference not a "jerk-off" gesture/reference.

This was clearly a gesture made with Raymer's knock out in mind and not the altercation with Mike M.
