Fair enough....
Anyway, might as well add my 2c as well.
Playing 2/3 NL at the local cardroom. Poor old asian guy has taken beat after beat, and reloads for $100, which is slightly strange because he had been a buying in for $200. He announces to me privately sitting alongside that this was his last $100, and I assume he is leaving after this buy-in.
However, this isnt his last $100 for the night, this is his last $100 TO HIS NAME. He has rent due for $200 the next day and made a miscalculation of how much he had left. As such, he is going to play to try and double up then go home...
He runs his 100 up to 150 without showdown. A few hands later there is a raise to 15 and a call. He makes it 45, gets one call. The flop is 7 high, and he shoves. The other guy is tanking, when the person flips over his aces, announces he just needs this money, Im saving you money, please just fold, I need this pot etc.... The other guy CALLS ANYWAY, saying the amount of pleasure he would get from sucking out would be worth the -EV.... Turn blanks, river is a 9.... Chaos ensues, the asian tries to get in a swing but misses, and he collapses to the floor in agony, eventually dragged by security...
Other then that, the same standard chunders on/at the table etc...
