At it Again

Championship Event
$3300 + $200 NL

The emotions of Stephen Reynolds (Little Egg Harbour, NJ) has earned himself a penalty after he stands up, violently throws his cards across the table and gets nose to nose with the floor manager while cursing him out. The initial one orbit penalty has been extended to the end of Level 14, putting Reynolds on the rail for 45 minutes.

Reynolds, who we highlighted Monday for excessive celebration, is in a hand with Konstantino Dimitroulakos (Tinton Falls, NJ) and is adamant that Dimitroulakos' hand should be dead after the cards are held above the table and visible to some bystanders before the preflop betting is complete.

The manager rules that the hand is still live and attempts to diffuse the situation by having play continue. The board is 6♥ 5♥ 3♥ 10♦ J♣ and Reynolds checks the river, followed by Dimitroulakos who says, "you check? I have pocket sevens."

With that, Reynolds explodes from his seat, fires his cards across the table and on to the floor. He screams down the floor and storms out of the Poker Room. After returning to the tournament area Reynolds gets word he's done for the night.
