I was at a charity casino with edzwoo and another friend the other night. There was a 3bet pot between this Korean player and this other player. The Korean player bets flop and the other player ships it. At this point, the Korean player doesn't really know what to do, so he tanks for a while, and this middle ages white guy who isn't in the hand says "I'm not going to call clock on you, but we want to play so hurry up." After the comment, the Korean player and his friend (who's also Korean) just starts bitching at the middle aged white guy for rushing him. The argument went on for quite some time; the Korean players kept saying how disrespectful it was to rush someone, and that if he was taking too long, the right thing to do is to just call clock on him. The middle aged white made a comment about how the Korean player's friend should have been raised and even asked where he lived like he was going to look him up or something. Someone eventually calls clock and the Korean player folds.
After the hand, the middle aged white guy points at all of the Asian players at the table, four with myself included, and says "I'm outnumbered here, so I'm leaving." At this point, us Asians at the table were just like "what the fuck?". The other Asian player and I didn't say anything during the hand, and we didn't know anyone at the table but I guess the middle aged man just assume we all knew each other or something. This other white guy sitting to my right asked me if I need some help jumping the middle aged guy in the parking lot, haha.
In retrospect, the Korean player did take a pretty long time. I don't think telling the Korean player to hurry up was a big deal but it looks like the Korean guys got real pissed over it. I just found the entire experience very amusing.
Also, I went up $112 playing 1/2. Not much but made me feel good, rofl.

casinos house some of the most degenerate human beings known to mankind. you shouldn't be surprised, and this was pretty mild if anything. let the donks be. |

I don't think that's really "racist," but it's definitely out of line. I've played with a few older guys who got really pissed for trivial reasons, and it's always really embarrassing to be at the same table as them. |

"it's disrespectful" = "I don't like it, but can't justify it"
maybe he was tilted after that and recognized when he wasn't +ev? |

weak racist comment!
Yeah the entire clock thing in live poker can be really dramatic. I've seen pretty much the same thing happen, where someone threatened to call clock and the guy who was thinking then starts a big argument, blah blah. |

this isn't that racist, i mean, i would think it would be a bit uncomfortable from the MAW's perspective since he is probably used to sitting with other white people and may fear you are cheating him. The entire table overreacted and I would love to complain about these situations happening to me, but I"m asian so this happens about EVERY TIME I GO TO THE CASINO. So it is rather funny to see a white man experience this 'outnumbering' |

phil hellmuth is genuinely a stupid person and he does not understand poker very well at all - [vital]myth | |

to clarify, there were four asians at the table. only two knew each other. I didn't know anyone at the table and I wasn't ever in a hand with the middle aged white player |
