Default Re: Crazy Mike / MrGatorade makes his mark on WSOP

Amusing edition to the story from the reporters from a different reporting site.

"Hellmuth lost a huge pot in the $3000 Limit Hold'em event to Linda Ryke-Drucker's Queens, and as Hurricane Phil was building up energy to blow, Mike Thorpe decided to step in and steal the spotlight by pretending to have just noticed Phil and wanting a handshake from his poker idol.

Aghast and ready to go nuclear, Hellmuth sat back stunned, as Thorpe called the floor, himself, and asked the official to make Phil shake his hand. Instead, Thorpe was led back to his seat and reprimanded."
