Player Disqualified

One player who has been quite boisterous throughout the day's tournament has been disqualified from the event and thrown out of the casino.

While yelling repeatedly at another player about losing a hand, he was eventually issued a one round penalty for disrupting the tournament during level 14. The other player, who was arguing back, was also issued a one-round penalty for disrupting play.

The initiator of the argument initially refused to leave the table to serve his one-orbit penalty, eventually getting up, then verbally threatening floor staff and also players in the 7pm $100 tourney taking place at adjacent tables in the poker room.

The verbal threats led tournamemt floor staff to declare the player disqualified from the event, his 60,000 in chips picked up and security called as the player continued to yell and threaten those around him. His stack has been deducted by staff from the total chipcount.

Security staff is still arguing with the man and trying to get him to cooperate and leave the casino.

Let's just say we do NOT expect this player back in Binion's Gambling Hall any time soon.
