"Looks like I'm kicked out of all harrahs property's right before dinner break with a 100bb fml no main event this year."

"Because I was so drunk and harassing ppl at carnival court the other night but I don't remember any of this fml"

Never post again, you have the perfect number for this event.

Hmmm he went into his workplace off-hours... blind drunk... and harassing people... then he got fired... and he's saying "fml"?

^^EXCUSE DRUNK?

The twitter pic pretty much sums up this guy. What a tool. Deserves it if he was black out drunk at his job.

"I survived cancer so now I get drunk and treat other people like crap to live my life to the fullest!"

After about 9 seconds on that guy's twitter I'd like to give CET a big round of applause.

He should be banned from everything for saying "FML" (twice) as a grown man.

Whatever you think of him. Doesn't chane the fact the guy is good. Bracelet winner. Wpt final tables Ect.

Things have come a long way since BB urinated on female dealer's leg while she was in the box at the Dunes and was allowed back in. Puggy Peason put out a cigar on a dealers hand and he was allowed back. Now getting drunk gets you banned.

who??

Who was disputing that he wasn't a good player? We were just chiming in how he is clearly a toolbox.

.

You know, you would think that having your arm amputated and surviving cancer would make you a humble, strong and grateful man. But, he is living proof, that scum will always be scum.

Please have bracelet bets Diaz, serves you right for carrying on like a pork chop.

It takes a whole lot more than just being drunk to get you banned from a casino. I dont know what he did but it had to be bad. In the years ive lived in vegas ive had some drunk nights I would like to take back but have never been kicked out let alone be banned.

Just think how much worse it has to be to ban a guy with one arm with the cancer story---He must have been given every chance. No TD/Casino wants to kick out anyone like that.

But, it appears he should have followed his own advice:

Does he have a history of bad behavior at poker tables? If not, I am sure they will let him back in the Rio at some point.

Diaz was treated for cancer -- which includes his undergoing the amputation -- when he was a young kid. So it's less likely the experience would have brought about some sort of personal transformation in a "new and improved man" type of thing.

That said, I agree. You would think it would give him a greater appreciation for his life, rather than some "YOLO"-fueled license to act like a douche.

In fact, perhaps Diaz' very condition has engendered so much sympathy throughout his life that those around him have been reluctant to call him out when he has fallen out of line. He has been a cancer survivor and an amputee for almost as long as he can remember. Think how often he probably got a pass from friends and family who otherwise would have chastised a "healthy" kid for similar actions. Years and years of unchecked behavior? It sure seems to me like it would have altered his idea of decorum. Maybe this is the first time he has been treated like everyone else.

Anyway, I know nothing more about Diaz than what I've read and what I can glean from his Twitter feed. Given some of the characters who have come through the poker world, it's not like Caesars has a quick trigger at upholding some sort of moral code. He must have been several paces beyond the usual standards of drunk and disorderly to earn a ban.

This exactly. That's a great point -- if anything, Caesars was more gunshy at resorting to a ban.

you could well be right..similar to pretorius in that regard.

He's got support from some very high profile pros (Waxman being one of them and WSOP TD is one of his best friends from back home) so I think he'll be back soon unless he did something catostrophic to an employee.
I am sure that it will also come with a drinking ban and or 'last chance or lifetime ban'

ul bub

busted him in a 1.5k

dude was there for 4 hands and managed to be a prick. right afterwards various people at the table commented but didn't want to say anything while he was there.

#freelefty

If being drunk and belligerent is an issue I should be banned from my own life
