Table Three Erupts

[user4144]

Just as it appeared as though the rest of the field was calmly drifting away, their eyelids becoming heavier as they slowly begin to grind their way into day two, the players are abruptly awoken from their slumber by an eruption of drama on Table Three that would put a Lost cliffhanger to shame.

The main perpetrators of the kerfuffle were Shane 'Shaniac' Schleger, Peter Tran, and, nearer the tail end of the fracas, Davood Mehrmand.

As I joined the debate, Shane Schleger was most agitated, his arms gesticulating like a madman as he complained about Tran showing a hand to Mehrmand whilst Mehrmand was still in the hand and vice versa a few hands prior.

All three players were arguing adamantly, Mehrmand protesting his innocence adamantly and saying, "This man needs to see a doctor, he has a problem." Tran, meanwhile, rose from his seat exclaiming, "Don't you use the F word with me!"

Eventually, the tournament director was called over, and much to the dismay of Mehrmand who argued, "I didn't show my hand, he lies", Schleger was given a warning for disruptive behavior whilst Tran and his supposed accomplice were warned for showing cards.

Play has continued, but all three players are still frothing at the mouth like rabid wolverines, so we'll be keeping a close on the action to see if any further arguments ensue. Tensions are currently simmering, but if they begin to boil over again, we'll let you know.
