Re: Why is John Monnette considered a douche??
On the 5k Stud 8/B final table live stream, they just said that Monnette got banned from the Aria.
Can anyone add detail?

Re: Why is John Monnette considered a douche??
Friend works with someone he stakes and Monnette told the both of them he enjoys winning just so he can stiff the dealers. What a piece of ****

Re: Why is John Monnette considered a douche??
John Monnette story from day 2 of 5k stud8. He has an empty coffee cup quarter filled with ice, and some guy doing his job, sweeps up his empty coffee cup. Monnette goes "WTF are you doing". Guy is like "sorry but it looked empty". Monnette replies with "just get the **** out of here". He just won the stud hi bracelet, seriously what an ass, haha.

So he's a good guy because he wins at poker, not because of his actions?
You seem intelligent.
Anyways... from 3-handed play in Event #15
Quote:
We caught up on fourth street to see Todd Brunson bet out against John Monnette. Monnette called and proceeded to do the same on fifth and sixth. Both players checked on seventh and Brunson flipped up {9-Spades}{6-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} for a pair of nines.
"I cant believe I can't f***ing beat a pair of nines," remarked Monnette as he slapped his hand into the muck and the pot was pushed to Brunson.

Pokers an emotional game, have you ever played? Very standard at decent stakes live!

Re: Why is John Monnette considered a douche??
My buddy was dealing him just a minute ago. He was a bit douchey with the whole "You know we are playing Stud right?" crap.

Re: Why is John Monnette considered a douche??
Lots of poker players are very competitive AND not dicks to other players/dealers/anyone who comes near them while they are playing poker. It's not that hard to do.

Re: Why is John Monnette considered a douche??
"I’m not always so hardcore and so angry and just focused on poker. I’m actually alright, it’s just that they know me in such a competitive mode where sometimes I come across as angry and mean, where it’s just me being super competitive."
Oh my...blah blah blah. Being an angry douchehole and being competitive have nothing in common. Besides, where's the competition in telling a waitress to **** off?? He probably has never got laid without money, so he vents his frustration all over the place.
