    I just noticed, caruthers also flopped the lower straight on that hand.  I blame him for shorting lol, as had he had a bigger stack I could have come back over and maybe got you off it.

        Its ok talking about your bad beats or whatever on this forum,some agree and some dont,thats to be expected,but then finding a player thats playing in a game and then carrying on the abuse is going way to far.( i hope that person knows who i'm talking about.)Its about time this type of thing was stopped in the bud.Not only does that player get upset but it ruins the game there playing in.On this accasion,it has forced the player to say,ive had enough of this and goodbye sky.This type of thing should never happen in the first place,and as far as im concerned,this abusive person should be reprimanded or banned.Its unsportsman like and damnright rude.Keep your opinions to the forums,and stop stalking players.If this is the type of thing that goes on,i'm dissapointed in the players that do it and to be quite honest,in sky as well for allowing such things.THIS MUST BE STOPPED.

    Its ok saying this seagull,but ive done and said this off by own back,if the person concerned wanted to post what had happened,i think they would have done.I just hope i havent caused any friction between our friendship with writing what i have done.Its really up to the person in question to do this,if they want to,i hope they do.Thanks for the advise tho.This type of abuse,ruins all aspects of the game of poker and im talking about a good player and a great friend.I would like to hear about other players views on this.You never know,the player who has caused all this might reply,would be very interesting to say the least.

    Anyone who is witness to table abuse should report it.
    Don't just post about it - do something about it.
    It just takes a moment to report the abuse.

    I knocked a guy out on the bubble of an Omaha mtt on PS last night. He followed me round for half an hour afterwards wittering on about it. It didn't bother me in the least.

    This is poker for real money not the Church Tombola tournament, it's going to happen, and while an ignore button would be useful, if some abuse bothers anyone that much they really need to toughen up a bit.

              Then all i can say is your a real tough guy or woman as it is and have no feelings at all for how other people react to this situatiojn.If you had read the original post you would have understood the circumstances.This person i was talking about has been with sky for a very long time and enjoys there poker,its an outlet to chill out once in a while when needed.The last thing they want is someone comming on while there playing having a go at them over an article in badbeat telling them they dont agree,i thought that was what the forum was for.and by the way,it wasent even complaining about anything but then again you always get some smuck who likes to have a go.Are you one of these.

       You know,no matter where you are or what you do you will always find someone who isent happy with things,wether its in life or anything else you do.There just not happy with any system and just like to argue.These people are just born trouble makers and it seems were getting a few on here lately.Just chill out and work with the system for a change,You never know, it might do you some good.

    like someone else said just turn the chat off if someones bothering you.

    if you were chatting to other people maybe it would be a good idea to have a block button like someone else has said.

      Its nice to see theres a few players with some common sence,instead of the very odd couple who just cant see there nose in front of there face and just have something negative to say instead of offering a solution to what has happened.Perhaps as been suggested a type of block button would be a good idea,i dont really know.Anyway i think ive said enough on this subject,i think now its up to the individual players to sort these abusers out or for sky itself so this type of thing dosen't happen again.Thank you for the players who have listened to me and  offered a suggestion,  the others:"i hope this type of thing happens to you,who just moaned about it and just said put up with it.(the point is you shouldn't have to) and didnt have anything contructive to say".This is the last i will say about this matter.Have a good game all.

    Yeah that was a good tourney DOHHHH. I had the same as you, we were both cruising, way ahead of the rest when we were between 40 and 12 players left. Once you went out in 6th I suffered a beat as well, Not a bad one, only 60/40 putting pressure on the BB with a raggy ace, they shoved with J9spaes and hit flush. I had won most races and all my over pairs were holding up. But final table is where you need your luck to hold. Obv wasn't to be for us in the end but a nice £100 from a £5 buyin so cant grumble :D
