An amazing scene occurred that would've made an unbelievable Youtube clip, sure to get views in the millions. Davood Mehrmand checked on the flop from the cut-off. Ram Vaswani bet out $7,000 - just under the pot size. Davood decided to take his time and began to think. It was kind of a no brainer really, a small pot pre-flop and a pretty standard bet by Ram, but Davood wanted to make sure to take his sweet time.

The first person to mention something about how long he was thinking was Bill Gazes. Davood did not take kindly to being encouraged to think a little quicker. ''I have a decision to make, I will take my time!'' he snapped.

I thought this reaction was a little much, but I had no idea what was to come. I turned my back to see what was going on in a hand behind me, when I heard Davood picking up steam,''Who called the clock on me.. WHO CALLED THE CLOCK?''

Eli Elezra, very matter of factly, said, ''I did.''

Davood went from 0-100 in about 1.2 seconds when he blew his gasket, ''YOU DON'T THINK I HAVE A DECISION HERE AND YOU CALL THE CLOCK??!?! WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?!?!?''

Eli was standing at the time looking back at Davood who continued while flailing his hands around, ''WHY YOU CALL THE CLOCK ON ME?!?! DO YOU THINK YOU'RE SOMEBODY SPECIAL?!?!? YOU THINK YOU'RE SOMEBODY SPECIAL!??!?!''

Jeff Lissandro came over to try to calm down Davood,''Hey, hey... c'mon man.''

Minh Ly got up from the table and looked at me and said, ''This is why I don't say anything... people are crazy man.''

Lissandro's efforts went unrewarded as Davood continued (and this is just a portion of what he said, a lot of it was unintelligible), ''YOU THINK YOU'RE SOOOO SPECIAL!!! YOU ARE A NOBODY!!! YOU THINK YOU'RE BIG TV GUY FAMOUS GUY!! MAYBE OUT THERE!!! BUT IN HERE YOU ARE NOBODY... LOOK AROUND!!! YOU ARE NOBODY!!! CALL THE CLOCK ON ME WHEN I AM THINKING!??!!?''

Eli had his iPod sitting there with a pair of Bose headphones. He slipped on the headphones and pushed a little button on them. A little red light turned on as the 'noise cancelling' featuing was activated. Davood went on for another ten seconds or so before finally quieting down.


The crowd watched in anticipation as Davood screamed at Eli with craziness in his eyes

This was the sickest thread ever last summer and this needs to happen again

i'll start off with doyle vs hellmuth in a 1k a ball putting match in the players lounge, doyle smoked phil
who was cursing frequently about the depth of the cup and some [censored], he goes like 0-8 from a short distance at one point doyle wins like 18k

devilfish is as nasty trick shot artist, don't ever make a bet at a pool table with him it's -EV

Alex Jacob is rocking the most awesome jew fro i've ever seen in my life

[/ QUOTE ]

Hellmuth has to be about the biggest sucker ever in the history of prop and non standard poker betting. I don't think I've ever read about him winning a prop bet, a golf bet, a Chinese poker bet or any other bet that didn't involve straight tournament poker.

Sometimes I feel like he makes these dumb bets out of a sense of insecurity. Like he feels he has to give these guys the much better end of the action just to hang around with them. What kind of a fool would play Phil Ivey heads up for 500k on an airline flight unless of course he just wanted to fly with Phil Ivey on a private airline flight? What kind of fool who doesn't even reportedly play golf would take on Doyle Brunson in a putting match? He must know Brunson has like a 0 handicap.

Phil.. I doubt you're reading this but if you are Phil Ivey and Doyle are not cool. They are humoring you because you're a mark.

The kind of guy who actually WINS $18K from Doyle. The OP reported it wrong, Hellmuth won $18K in the putting bets; he did not lose $18K.

Why would someone as rich as Jordan stiff someone for 10k?

[/ QUOTE ]

There was a thread in sports a while ago about what a cheap bastard Jordan is.

Jordan and Barkley are golfing, they get their clubs cleaned at the clubhouse; Barkley tosses the kid a $20, Jordan doesn't tip. Barkley says "hey, no tip?" , Jordan says "getting to clean my clubs is his tip".

[/ QUOTE ]

Yeah, I started that thread. Barkley, by all accounts, is great to 99% of the people he meets though.

Still though....not tipping is a lot different from stealing $10K.
