Haha yep, I almost spit beer across the felt when he said that. It was so random and unexpected, as was the old guy's original comment. It's hard to believe that some of this stuff wasn't scripted.

Altho I am one of the old guys you guys enjoy ragging on, I thought I'd contribute. 4/8 at Trop in AC one Friday night draws in a lot of guys who'd been watching tooo much TV.

Youngish guy sits down in seat 10 with three racks of whites, camo pants, black tee shirt, dog tags on gold chain, very dark glasses and BERET! (The military look is important so take note). Dealer has to tell him to unrack some chips. Never says a word to anyone through a complete orbit.

We are HU and I C/R the turn. Without changing what is visible of his expression, he swivels at stares at me (I'm in seat 4) for quite a while. Finally I ask "Expecting an invasion, Commander? [insert military reference here].
Table laughs.

He goes as much on tilt as you can in LHE, reraises, I happily cap with the nuts. The river gets capped, I show the nuts, he turbomucks, picks up what's left of his chips and leaves, not the table but the room - maybe the city.

SB is a shaved-head kid (older than I am though) wearing shades and an IPod, up about $100 since sitting down by WPT'ing his garbage cards.

[/ QUOTE ]


twenty something kid (see description above)sits down to my left and strikes up a conversation. About 5 minutes later, an older lady (who had been very polite and called everyone "sweetie" and seems out of place playing NL) doesn't notice the action is on her takes too long to play. This kid starts moaning and clapping and asks her if she's trying for an Oscar. A few hands later she catches a good river and takes 1/2 the kids money. The very next hand she reraises him all in. He calls, gets shown the nuts, tells the grandma that she can "take his money 'cuz she'll be dead soon and need to buy a nice coffin" and stands to leave. His cell phone is still sitting on the table, so in a fairly quiet voice I tell him he forgot his phone. He turns around, pulls his hat off, and screams "What the fk did you say to me". He sounds so convinced I wondered what I did say to him. I point at his cell phone. He picks it up and screams "I don't need your fkn help". By this time the floor man has arrived to escort him out, and the last words we hear were "Why do I have to leave. It was the old lady that started it."

I think in the Old West they used to shoot people for this kind of behavior at a poker table.....

My favorite at Commerce is exemplified by the following. I'm out of the hand. The guy to my left and another guy are in the hand. River is something like A7822. First guy bets. Guy to my left picks up his cards to look at them. I can see them, he has something like QT offsuit. He stares the guy down for 5 minutes, acting like he's thinking about making the call. Flicks his cards, stares some more. Finally throws the cards in the muck. I punch him in the face for being a douche.

It's all true except the punching in the face part, which is only what I wanted to happen, and not actually what happened.

GREAT thread!

My last trip to Vegas I hooked up with 2+2er Al Capone Jr. and we decided to Drunken-Magoo-it-up at the Excalibur's 2-6 spread limit game. Either myself of Al would max raise almost every hand pre-flop, pretty much pissing off the local rocks who immediately asked for a table change.

Anyway, barely 21 something sits down in seat 3 (we're in seats 8 and 9 directly opposite) and begins his WPT play on every hand with his Oakley's siting on the table.

A few hands go by and I find myself, Al, and Mr. Oakley 3-way on the turn (I have no idea what the hand was). Mr. Oakley bets out, Al raises, I re-raise, and Mr. Oakley puts on the shades and stares us down for a good 2 minutes before folding. Al and I look at each other and, without saying a word, both reach into our pockets and pull out the shades.

For the next hour we would play normal UNLESS Mr. Oakley was in the hand, then one or both of us would stop the action for 30 seconds to a minute and just stare at him. He finally had had enough and laughed about it and took off his shades and proceded to play "normal" poker at the table.
