Scrap that last plan ... something far more interesting happened on this table ...
34 1 Ashique Miah
34 2 Mehtab Shabir
34 3 Tim Blake
34 4 Yucel Eminoglu
34 5 Sidicki Mohangee
34 6 Jonothon Butters
34 7 Ji Ye Zhang
34 8 Craig Young
34 9 John Stritch
Yucel (Mad Turk) was down to 5k and shoves..
Jonathon Butters makes the call ...
John Stritch repops it and it is anothe 7k into a pot of 17k for butters to call
Butters (as anyone who has been on the circuit knows) has a dwell up, and after 2 mins, someone not in the hand calls the clock. At this point it all goes off, butters is steaming and saying he hasnt had any time, floor called, more moaning and bitching and eventually butters folds ...
for Turk
for Stritch
Boards comes out
Stritch scoops, Turk out ... and thats that .... OR IS IT.
We now descend into complete farce, Butters is steaming and now slates the clock caller, he then turns his attention to Stritch saying how bad his over shove was etc etc ... Stritch is keeping quiet and not getting involved UNTIL Butters starts saying how bad Stritch is and how he is considerably richer than him, he offers Stritch 10/1 on his net worth and play him heads up for it YAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWNNNN ... are you bored yet ?
This goes on for a couple of minutes and Butters goes on and on and on .... Dave the TD comes over and just says calmly and clearly "Guys, I dont care what the argument is about, I dont even care who is right and who is wrong, it stops and it stops now"
Dave walks away from the table and Butters knocks his remaing chips into a pile and storms off from the table ... Tim Blake (who is on the same table) looks at me and we exchange amazed expressions, it was a truly horrific outburst from Butters, I hope he realises it and apologises when he calms down.
