I was on table 2 and wittnessed the hand. The recipient of the extra chips made the final table. He made it very obvious that after the ruling he would not be relinquishing his extra chips.

This makes it a million times worse imo, if he would have been crippled (as was posted in another reply) without these chips then he has essentially done someone else out of making the money. No doubt he would"ve had to do some work after this incident to make it to the final table but the fact still remains that he shouldn"t have had that opportunity. He"s a blatant cheat and nothing more than a lowly thief IMO.

It doesn"t make it worse - it makes it the same. The situation should have been resolved at the time but, after that, do you expect that he would then deliberately play badly because of what happened? Do you think that what happened wouldn"t be so bad if he got knocked out soon after? The incident gave him a better chance of going deep - whether he actually did is irrelevant to the decision at the time.

Yes it makes it worse because not only has he cheated the initial player out of his chips but he"s also cheated someone out of making it into the money, not to mention the numerous players he must"ve stacked on his way to the final table.

Of course it would still be as bad, however, had he had been knocked out soon after then less people would have been affected by his actions, so while the severity of the cheating remains the same the consequences of his actions are worse. So therefore IMO it is worse.

What this guy did is reprehensible, and the fact that he got to the final table just shows he has no conscience! Every body who was on that table must know who he is, lets name and shame. What he did wasn"t a mistake he knew what he was doing, if this player was a true APAT player he would have given up those chips gracefully, and acted like 99% of APAT players do.
