Default Alec \"traheho\" Torelli........don\'t read if sensitive

Here I am reading my Card Player magazine, and I get to the section where they announced that traheho (Alec Torelli) won the FTOP main event for almost 300K, and it shocked and kind of infuriated me. Why, you ask? Because he is a racist!!!!!! I was raised to respect everyone's point of view, even racists, as anyone is entitled to what they believe, but on the poker table, i just feel it is unacceptable. I played with him about 3-4 months ago in a cash table on Full Tilt(I can't really remember the stakes), and he lost a pretty big pot to someone with the avatar with the black guy with the afro, where AfroMan rivered him on a 3 outter. After the hand, he says in exact words (thats a play a n***er would make), and a railbird wrote LOL, and that started a chain of events where people were leaving the game. He was writing that he'll drag him on the back of his truck, and just saying a lot of things that I don't feel comfortable writing on this. I wrote a complaint to Full Tilt, and assuming that he is a big game player he got some leeway, i don't think a small stakes guy could get away with what he was writing. It disappoints me that someone who could preach so much hate could turn out to be a big winner, but hey thats life. Traheho, your name is still in my find a player feature.............
