Message: [QUOTE="IntenseHeat, post: 2343599, member: 92488"] I still have to wonder exactly what it was that the Vietnamese guy said. I'm not a badass or anything like that. But there are some things that I just won't tolerate. I guess that's just the way I grew up. I was taught to keep my mouth shut and handle my business, not to mess with anyone, but not to let anyone mess with me, and not to let anyone disrespect me or my family. The point is that if someone crosses the line I am the type of person that will probably come around the table and hit them in the mouth. To me someone showing a bluff doesn't come anywhere near crossing that line. In fact the thought of it is laughable. Someone screaming and shouting in an excessive celebration might be irritating, but it still wouldn't cross that line. However if the Vietnamese guy were to have yelled out the wrong words during the course of his celebration, then that might explain what upset the other guy enough to cause him to strike out. I know we've all played against obnoxious players (usually online) who can say some uncalled for shit when they win, and even worse things when they lose (you know, the kind of stuff that might be considered insulting). Maybe this was one of those guys that just forgot he was in the real world and not safely behind his computer, where he couldn't be reached. I'm just sure that there had to be more to it than he showed me a bluff and then celebrated. To most people on this forum, the idea of punching someone in nose for executing a successful bluff, showing it and then celebrating seems absolutely ridiculous. In fact it seems so ridiculous to me that I can't believe that there wasn't more to it than that. It's not at all hard for me to imagine, given some of the things I've seen said and done at poker tables that I'm surprised didn't result in someone being punched in the nose. [/QUOTE]
