APAT Southern European Amateur Championships Live Update
gunnerdamo:
It was about 22.30 on day one of the apat southern european championship. i had 7s 7h i raised pre to 1000, i got one caller, flop comes ks 7c td, i bet out on my set to 3000, the guy just flat calls, turn comes 4d, i raise he pushes and i see the bad news, he has tc th. So now im down to 3200 of my stack, under the gun i push all in, i have ac td, i want a call cause i need a double up but would be happy to take the blinds, Everybody folds till it comes to the big blind, he is spanish and in his mid 40s. He had about 35k, he waited appox 2-3 mins then called. i showed my ac td he said to me while he stood, oh you have an ace, i said yes and then i said my ten kicker must be good, he showed me an ace then 5 seconds later he threw down another ace and laughed in my face, never in my poker life has that ever happened to me before nor would i ever do that to a fellow poker player, i just took the high ground and walked over to rich and leigh and told them what just happened, they thanked me for not reacting or causing a scene.
There was a few apat players on the rail that seen what happened and were amazed i didnt hit him. Anyway about 15 mins later the spanish guy came over and said to me, im so sorry for what i did and that he didnt mean it, i shook his hand and asked him why he did it, he said he didnt know why he did it.
Just wanted to tell you all my story and see what you all think about what he did.
Thanks Damien -gunnerdamo

I remember this tale being told on the Sunday and I was amazed at your control. However what it does prove is you are the better man. But it still sucks, badly. I would like to think that I would retain dignity in the face of this, but I very much doubt it..
Respect Damien

Ah, so you"re gunnerdamo :)
I was unfortunately there to witness it "live" and I even found myself coughing "slowroll" when it happened. It was disgusting and you did well not to react - I know you were fizzing for the 30 mins it took him to apologise.
T"was good to meet you.
gunnerdamo:
Fair play lads and yes lucky you were standing beside me when he came over to say sorry.
