Darvin Moon
Last night's ESPN ME Day 1D
LOL at Moon checking behind on the river with the nuts. :confused: |
Apparently Intentionally too lol. His response "I knew you couldnt call" (the flush BACKDOORED)
|
Haven't seen it yet, but that should be a penalty.
|
they gave him a 1 hand penalty
|
That is ridiculous. It should be at least an orbit.
I imagine they did the absolutely minimum penalty allowed because it was at the featured table and they wanted to minimize the exposure, but knew they HAD to do something. |
I was shocked, too. I always thought it was a 1 hour penalty in the ME, but maybe I'm wrong.

I don't think there's any penalty based on time...especially one hour long. I mean if you do it based on time, a penalty in the first level 300 bbs deep, is going to be a lot less significant than an hour long penalty at the final table.
Regardless, a penalty for this type of infraction seems rather dumb. I mean if a guy is dumb enough to check behind the nuts, then I don't want him missing any hands at all. Like if the player purposely goes out of their way to 'collude' then there should be a huge penalty. If you watch this hand, it's quite obvious that there's no collusion, and that Darvin had a reason to check behind the nuts. Obviously it's stupid to check the nuts, but it's clear to me that he's not soft playing the guy. |
He was outed by the other players. It appeared the floor/dealer didn't pick up on it.
