John Kabbaj‘s first bracelet was most notably remembered for the playing of the Sex Pistol’s version of “God Save the Queen.” He’s giving the World Series of Poker staff a chance to make up for the faux pas by winning another bracelet on Thursday night, thus a second ceremony.
The British pro topped a field of 470 players in the $2,500 Omaha H-Lo/Seven Card Stud Hi-Lo event to earn $267,327. The win puts his career tournament earnings over the $2 million mark and into a small group of players who can say that they have multiple bracelets.
“It’s surreal,” said Kabbaj. “I’m still in shock at the moment.”
After a few years of personal struggles, Kabbaj looks at this accomplishment as a fresh start for him.
“I’ve had the worst two years of my life and this is quite special,” said Kabaj. “I’ve been through a really bad divorce, sold my house, moved countries and had a really tough year. This is the icing on the cake.
After his divorce, Kabbaj decided to move to the Austrian mountains, a place that he describes as “the middle of nowhere,” with his dog to get away from his personal problems in Britain.
“I moved out there with my dog and dreamed of this moment,” he said. “I’m in the mountains up by the ski resort. It’s a beautiful place with my dog. I reached the age of 40 and decided I would find myself.”
If he can offer one piece of advice for anybody going through similar problems, it would be to stay away from the tables.
“If you ever get divorced, don’t play poker for a long time. Take time out. I should have taken some time out,” said Kabbaj. “I should have taken some time out and I didn’t. I just went on a roller coaster. It’s hard for me to explain the year that I had, but it’s basically the low of the low to the high now, so it’s going to take time to sink in.”

For pretty much anyone else, my first reaction is if you run around the Amazon Room hollering and whooping, that's what's outrageous and how can you possibly complain about getting a penalty. I thought they were clamping down on it after Hevad Khan a few years ago. The TD's decision is final and it's hardly Draconian to say you shouldn't run around the room screaming if you win a pot, however important, when the competition is still live. To suggest you should always give a warning first is embarrassing. I really hope they don't give him the apology it's said he deserves. If someone won a 200k pot at my local casino and started off like that, they'd be lucky to escape with a warning. And not just from the TD. Pathetic to suggest it's in any way close to appropriate behaviour.
For Mike Matusow, I'm reminded of a Lisa Simpson quote:
"You can't create a monster and complain when he stomps on a few buildings"

Probably a bit unjust and a warning sounds absolutely fine io. His celebration does sound somewhat excessive though and if it was Joe Bloggs the ruling would have been the same so I don't see a particular issue. What I find more interesting/worrying is that yet again a cash game at the RIO has been found to have 2 of the same card in it. Crazy. No real proof but a fairly convincing thread on 2+2

What were the pre tournament odds on any player being dealt a joker in this massive field #MillyMaker today? Just happened on table 221.
I know mistakes will happen with so many hands getting dealt but these seem particularly crazy.

It amazes me how Daniel is screaming for "warnings" to be given. Him, and all the other pro's siding with him, play Poker EVERY day and have been doing for decades. Why do you need to be WARNED that something is OOL? I mean come on, really? Someone who goes in a Casino once a month knows where the line is.
The fact they're playing for large amounts of money means nothing either. The reason you dont celebrate like that in someones face is because its a rubdown. Yes you're more excited because you've just gained X equity in this $250k up top tournament, but what about the guy whos just lost X equity?
Im all for atmosphere, and Im all for emotion, but there has to be a line. Running around the room like a demented loon and pounding the table is definitely past that line.
