"Bring the russians on. Bring more russins on. I'm here to get 'em all!!"

OMFG. How does he not get his head kicked in on a regular basis ?

Brilliant. Tony G is a legend.

"The man doesn't deserve applause, he put all his chips in with King Jack!"

Priceless.:p

califano

The guy made a dominant call.

Gholimoli

oh my focken god...

A commentating career beckons. In fact get him to commentate the Irish Open while standing at the tables with a loud speaker. K7 is a monster in an Irish tourney ffs never mind the mighty KJo.

ROFL, poor fecker, bad enough crashing out (prob deserved) but such abuse!!

Glowingmind

lol, had perry dished out a bad beat on tony g in a previous hand or something?
Was pretty impressed that he just sat there and took it.

"Your career is finished, gone, gone, gone"

LMFAO

crybaby

jesus, can we please get a video of this chap taking a beating?

bman

This guy is even worse than Phil Hellmuth IMO.

gerry87

I'd like to see him dishing out a beat, to hellmuth... now that would be loud.

staringelf

i am REALLY impressed by how how the guy took the abuse from tony G. i love the "good hand" at the end. i'd say that took everything he had to not acknowlegde the abuse he was getting. that's excellent. what a pro.

He's a classy fella alright, nh wp sir....

El Stuntman

I was just wishing for a jack or king to hit the river, can you imagine how he would have reacted.

Actually in fairness to him as obnoxious as he is I have seen him take his beats very well in general. Remember his trash talk is a total act but I think berating some guy when he is eliminated is taking it a touch too far even if he thinks this will benefit him against the remaining players by intimidation. Who knows.

Even funnier was the time he knocked Matasow out of some Monte Carlo tournamen, he berated him for a good few mins after getting knocked out.

Now that's one I'd love to see, Linky??

DeVore

I dont think he's funny or even entertaining. That was painful to watch and as long as we give people like that any respect or condone it its going to continue and others will emulate it. Whatever about during the game trying to get people on tilt, when the hand is over there is no need to humiliate the guy like that.

I've said before that the guy is a classless donkey, I'll say it again now. If he feels he needs to humiliate people after he's knocked them out, I'll add "and probably has a small penis" to that.

I found nothing about that funny.

Here, here.

I wonder if Tony G has any children or brothers and sisters? I think I would cry with shame if I saw a family member doing that, whether acting or not or as part of gaining some temporary advantage. All the prize money in the world doesn't matter much when compared to that level of tool-ness.

Waylander

I think he is a fcuking arsehole, and I am not sure I would have just sat there.

ianmc38

Didnt find it in the slightest bit funny.

Wallko

well said dev, didnt find that one bit funny, hard to watch actually. think ppl calling him a legend is bolox too

MrPillowTalk

I thought it was hillarious

However I also think he is a cock of immense proportions, his 33 call against peter roche was worse than that kj call.

Hectorjelly

Im laughing even thinking about the hand. He managed to get the guy to put in 750,000 chips more

Iago

Slightly OT: I watched a few videos of Tony G bad mouthing players, in one example he has 55 against KTs on a 7 8 9 board. His opponent pushes and he calls in an instant.

Tony G comments that he will shove his chips in when he knows he's got the best hand. Technically speaking he's behind because his chance of winning the hand once all the cards come down is less than his opponents.

Would you regard yourself as being ahead or behind in that position? Do you think you have the best hand with the pair even though statisically you'll lose from there more often than you win?

I dont really have a problem with the thrash talk during the hand. It was not very pleasant but there are plenty of people who play that game. It is the mouthing after the hand I have a problem with. There is no class in kicking a man while he was down.

Thats whats so funny about it. Hes just knocked the guy out so there is NO possible rational explantion for it, but he does it anyway. Im not saying its acceptable behaviour, just funny.

I'm certain he wanted a fold.

im not so sure. I think he was happy to get called by KJ. Obv since its hardly a lock hand he would of been happy for a fold too. But he sent the guy so far on tilt that he called 750k more with KJ, having only invested 100k.
