Spilled Beer on my Jacket ---> Getting paid. Am I a douche?

[rbenuck4]

I am seat 10 wearing a leather jacket. Seat 9 and I get involved in a pot. All the money goes in, I am ahead, he draws out on me (I don't think this matters all that much to the situation).

When he realizes he won he gets up from the table screaming like a banshee, hooting and hollering, and then spills his beer all over me (not just a few drops). I am visibly peeved (from his antics and beer on me, not from the bad beat). He offers me $60 bucks for the dry cleaning bill. I accept.

Am I a douche?

Nope. (At least I wouldn't think you were.)

Import or Domestic?

Seriously, nice gesture by the guy. Only a douche if you know you can get it cleaned for $20.

[Mygtar]

No, he offered you accepted. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

Maybe he will react differently next time. This is my biggest pet peeve about live poker. The antics, attitudes, and nastiness of some of its players. If you are old enough to play live you are old enough to be in control of your emotions [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

This is why I ask. I know it wouldn't be $60 to clean my jacket

[I dunno]

Whats the difference in having a drunk physically hand you $60 and having a drunk hand you $60 by playing bad poker?

[pocketpared]

Variance.

[Dominic]

hell no, I'd accept the 60 bucks.

Not douchey at all, as far as taking the money goes. Whether or not you're a douche depends on how you act when you take it.
