Default Poker Stars WCOOP 1st event yesterday...

...was won by a player who's handle was AustinKearns. He was quite rude and arrogant with his chat at the final table. Lee jones even had to warn him to cease his profanity or his chat would be revolked immediately.

Just wondered if anyone else sweated the final table yesterday and knows who this yo-yo of a character is?

He plays OF for the Cincinnati Reds, but he's been out with an injury for much of this year.

Funny, he seems so softspoken in interviews...get him behind a computer playing poker and he becomes obnoxious.

He was an idiot. When we got down to 3 players, he had two of us badly outchipped, and we wanted to make a save without him because he refused a deal. Lee Jones said that he needed all the participants approval to stop the tourney for a minute so MIK and I could deal. Kearns said no, even though the deal didnt involve him. Also, he keep telling us to "suc his dic".

He was hyper-aggressive, which worked quite well at that table. He almost busted himself twice even though he had an insurmountable lead. At one point, with 5 left and him raising every hand, I thought he might just finish 5th.

Tuco.

Well, if there are 3 players left the deal also involved him, think about it.

You misunderstood what I meant. He was not involved in the negotiations. Of course the deal involved him, but it's common courtesy to let others deal even if you don't want to.

Thanks for condecending lesson tho.

Tuco.

Yeah I saw him type the suc comment. Can't believe he's really a pro ball player as steeser indicated. He certainly doesn't represent himself as a professional anything. Except for maybe a professional dic himself.

The name is that of a ball player. The poker player is most likely not the real Austin and is just using the name.
