Tony G - Not Just TV
 

just now at my 2k wsop omaha event table, tony g answered his phone while turning up his hand at showdown. he showed a2 for low and stood up from the table to talk on his phone. the dealer, a female, killed his hand for answering the phone and awarded the entire pot to the other player. tony g flipped out and rifled his entire stack of chips of about 20 right into the dealer's face like a bullet. he stormed off and less than a minute later he returned and hid a $100 chip in the dealer's shirt. the dealer handled it amazingly well, with professionalism. tony was issued a 1.5 hour penalty.

He should be issued jail time.

[censored] idiot. WE do not need people like this in poker.

Re: Tony G - Not Just TV
 

Harrah's and the WSOP should take action....they can't let big name players get away with childish bullsh*t like this, absolutely no place for this in poker...classless


was the dealer Russian?

Finally proven: It's impossible to get kicked out of a WSOP event if you've been on TV before.

Re: Tony G - Not Just TV
 

why would he answer his phone at all...is he half retarded?

Re: Tony G - Not Just TV
 

the dealer made an incorrect ruling, but tony couldn't get it reversed because of his actions. tony came back after going for a 10 minute walk and smoothtalked the floor into removing the penalty. he is now playing through the round.

Re: Tony G - Not Just TV
 

when i played with tony g last year i really didn't see anything like this from him at all

he behaved much more like he did on this season's poker after dark episode 4
