Yet Another Valid Reason to buy in short.....
Cash games at the Rio.....hey Jim, was this you?
Another $5/10 game yesterday featured a player who pushed in dark multiple times, telling players that the thousand dollars he put in the pot were "like 15 cents" to him. After being angered that a player was allowed to short-buy for $200 to combat his dark shoving, he complained to the floor for ten minutes, picked up his chips, and told the players to take a stand with him and refuse to play in the game until they raised the minimum buy-in. Seeing the hesitation of the players to leave a good game, he told them that he had two limos waiting outside to take them wherever they wanted and just like that, an entire table broke and one short-stacker was left wondering what in the world had just happened. When I asked the gentleman what his name was, he mysteriously answered, "Bond. James Bond," before striding off down the long corridors of the Convention Center. |
