He raised his voice at players and staff a few times. He looked to instigate an argument over a few trivial things like other players not calling his raise or making a comment that he didn't like.
The worst was when he didn't post his ante, the dealer asked him for it, and he INSISTED that he put 1,000 yellow chip into the pot and wanted his 500 change. So not only did he NOT post, but he was now trying to scam 500 chips back out of the pot and he was SOOOO LOUD and 'intimidating' (the phony brooklyn kind) that he wouldn't allow anyone to tell him different. The truth was that he forgot to put in his ante because he was confused buying up all the 500 chips and failed to see that he picked it up in his hand. He kept saying "100%...100%...." and wasn't having it. A floor was called (is Mike Dentale a floor magnet or what? What a reputation this guy has....) and the floor was sadly a bit 'deer in headlights' and didn't know how to rule and let Mike control the conversation. Eventually, we played with a short pot and Mike "won" his argument.
As if that wasn't bad enough, he then sold all the racks to the bigger stack and that guy was very tired and possibly paying him out incorrectly, so I mentioned that he should have the dealer count it out as that is standard protocol when exchanging CHIPS between players. Mike FLIPPED OUT at this comment, eyes bugging out, carotid artery pumping, telling me how wrong I was (again..."100%"...it's the only math he understands since he can't even figure out an equity chop). Again, WSOP staff do nothing.
Ironically, I pay out my 13000 in 500 chips to the big stack and he pays him 17000 by accident which proved my point to begin with! I gave the player back the extra chips he gave me and reminded Mike Dentale that's why you have the dealers count the chips. For once in his life...he was silent and finally showed a sheepish, duh look.
After a day with Mike Dentale, everyone deserves a medal for having to put up with this guy. Not surprised to find this thread and see that he has a reputation for lacking integrity and having a hot temper. Amazing how trouble finds the same players over and over again....I wish WSOP, Borgota, Foxwoods, kept rap sheets on these guys and took action. Until then, it's up to the players to police the scum.
Its funny because I am rarely on 2+2, but its comical that I would run into such a cool story. I don't scam, its not me. I have no reason to, I win fair and square, other wise I don't want to win. Who are you to tell me I'm confused? YOU are the confused one. Someone appointed you God that you know the correct story? The Guy overpaid you, so now you are the table captain? Now you want the floor to watch this "tired" kid coloring up chips? I lack integrity? I have more Integrity in my finger then you have in you whole body! You are nothing... dust. First of all you are an over weight fat **** that never took his shirt off at the beach in his life, 2nd you must hate your miserable existence of a life to make up a story like that. Why am I so much on your mind? Worry about yourself and stop telling exaggerated stories hoping to find friends to agree with you. You fools keep saying roid rage, maybe if you had the discipline and motivation to work out and eat right you can look good too, but the truth is you are nothing but miserable out of shape hating ugly pile of ****, sorry just telling it like it is. Also find it funny that you are the voice of what's bad for the game. Your bad breath that was melting my face off was bad for the game!
