I use this sometimes after I hear a player raking a pot apologize to his opponent. I mean we are all trying to accomplish the same thing on the felt!
Yep. I quoted Doyle Brunson earlier in this thread--"To play this game you have to be willing to bust your grandmother."
Something like that actually happened and I watched it on TV. Annie Duke knocked her brother (Howard Lederer) out of the 2004 World Series of Poker Tournament of Champions. She cried and apologized to him, but she got over it. She won the tournament and the $2,000,000 first prize.
