WPT Paris last night

Anyone watch this last night on Challenge? This sack of cr*p was on it: http://www.tonygpoker.com/

Man, he was annoying, constant stream of consciousness, constant all in betting with naff-all and sucking out, and worst of all, constant berating of the poor schmucks that he did suck out. He was finally beaten by Surinder Sunar in hu, but I've never seen Surinder look so annoyed with the whole thing.

So, I wonder if anyone here has come across a player as annoying as Tony G on their travels and how do you deal with loud and obnoxious players at your table, particularly if they take half your jobs and berate you constantly.

Just keep your mouth shut and wait for the cards to shut them up. A set of headphones and some music comes in very handy.

In Galway some drunk guy called me a Limerick Scobe. 2 years ago that would have got me fuming but I'm used to it now because there are so many extremely rude players out there and I tend to make myself a target because I talk so much at the table. I just laughed at him. The best way to respond to rude people is with superior sarcasm. In the end he raised my big blind and I called with AJo. Flop J-5-7. I bet he goes all in and I call. He has J-7. Turn 8, River 8. Bwuuuhhahahhaaaa!
