Caught this on Matt Savage's Twitter today. Unreal, the balls on this guy. I'm surprised he wasn't ambushed in the parking lot, especially after having done it 2-3 times already in the same tourney.

EDIT: Looks like the forum embedding doesn't preserve the preset timestamp, so go to 6:50 to see the hand.

Gross. On the plus side, the tournament director handled it perfectly.

My question: Why make the call when the TD basically spelled out the angle?

He had several responses to people asking about it. A sampling:

This guy disgusts me I would give him 2 rounds based on history &
Would also tell him if he did it again he's DQ'ed

I may rule that he could only call if he had the winner also!

how do u feel about TD in the Freitez incident, giving outside information?<~May have handled differently but was justified.

thoughts TD advising player yet to act on angle shooter's history?<~Would have handled differently but OK with his decision.

But what's the biggest angle you've ever seen<~This Frito guy is it!

My question too. Maybe he felt like there was no way he would continue doing that.

Did he go on to win it ? I hope not, but looks like he had the chip lead at end of video.

What a *****!!! He should have been penalized for that! I mean really how many times are they going to let him get away with that!

My opinion: Since he had heard about this guy "a week ago" and the TD told him also, calling makes him show his hand and show the whole table what a dick he is. I'da done it too. The price was worth it, imo.
