I have been threatened a few times but my favorite was this one time at Hollywood Park. I don't usually wear sunglasses when I play but I was this time in order to hide a black eye given to me earlier in the week by a guy at a bar who sucker punched me for being rude to his girlfriend (I wasn't). Anyway, in the game I had been drinking and talking a lot and getting pretty lucky (it was my friend's birthday) and a guy across the table told me if I didn't change my behavior he would kick my ass. I lifted my sunglasses to expose my black eye and told him "buddy, it wouldn't be the first time I got my ass kicked playing cards!!" He looked shocked but I think I scared him because I did not change my behavior and he didn't threaten me again.
