Re: Final Hand from February VLV Final

edited March 2011 in Poker Chat

First time post here, hopefully about to clear up some drama!

Was brought to my attention today during a DYM that there had been some fallout following the final hand of February's Viva Las Vegas Final. From what I understand it was not neccassarily due to the hand itself, but rather to someone having written "CALL CALL CALL" in the chat box.

However, after we got down to about 4 players (think it might have been after the now infamous aa vs kk hand) I decided to switch the chat off (apart from the occasional ul, gg etc).

So in other words I was not at all aware that this had been written in the chatbox and can understand that it may have looked like this had influenced my decision to call. My apologies go to hurst05.

I hope that helps clear things up. I of course understand why this has caused some anger and would undoubtedly have been furious myself if people not involved in the tournament had been influencing play in which my seat in the main event had been on the line.

Cheers folks, and again unlucky to hurst05
