more please

[Ironside]

I really think that TDs need to get tougher on drunks and rude behavior of individuals at the poker table. the behavior of a few ruin it for everyone else.
So I am happy to bring up 3 occaisions recently where TDs have enforced the rules.
First one was in the international where a drunk announced a reraise having not noticed a reraise infront of him, when told of the reraise he mucked his cards, he had to make a minimium reraise (70% of his chips) he tried to get his cards back but was not allowed and his chips were added to the pot.

2nd on in the G casino in aberdeen where on a final table a drunk player was asked to leave and escorted out of the casino and his chips lifted from the table

3rd and possilby the best was HU at the end of the tourny in the G casino where a guy was warned of his behaviour but contiunes to be abusive to his opponant, he was given a 15 minute penalty which with blinds of 3/6k and only about 100k in front of him meant by the time he sat back down he had finished 2nd


can we get more TDs taking action against the drunk and abusive players please and maybe we will get a game that we can enjoy

Or alternatively, don't go to play poker in Aberdeen as it's full of drunks.

not often get a drunk in the game but atleast people will think twice before getting hammered at the table now

[Royal Flush]

It would help if it became the standard response from the TDs.  But unfortunately, it's not.

At DTD they aren't slow at throwing out abusive drunks.  Which is how it should be.

Yes but you really think someone on the piss really thinks about any of this stuff before their first pint?

it is meant to be standard now in both the above

standard in all would be good though

No

why dont you think it will discourage people? if you was thrown out or given a penalty that costs you a few hundred or you seen it happen surely it will discourage you from going ott

I'm a semi regular drinker at the table (although I don't generally behave like a twat), after I've enjoyed my 6/7th pint do you really think I give a toss about any of that stuff?

so your in a comp with say 10k for the winner and your on your 5th pint and you are feeling a little tipsy
would the fact that you know the TD will you if you get out of hand make you think twice about taking a couple of slammers
and another few pints or will you just hold back a little and slowly down your next few pints over the course of a few levels


if its the latter problem solved as you are not likely going to get hammered and abusive and making the other people in the game wish they stayed at home

if its the former then you have a reckless regard for money as TDs finally sort out the problem

[MANTIS01]

I've seen people behave twatty after one pint

[Ironside]

I've seen people behave twatty after one pint

i've seen them behave twatty without a drink

i've also been hammered at a table but when drunk didnt abuse anyone and kept upto speed with the game
(anyone rember the first apat event in broadways?) the problem isnt the drink and thats not why the DQs were done
its the behavour when drunk hopefully the same rules apply when sober

Not too likely to happen with that sort of cash invloved by me anyway. But I see it all the time in smaller comps, your absolutely right it should be enforced, but it won't make a blind bit of difference to the person drinking, once they are at the point where they are being a pain they are usually too drunk to think about the consequences.
