A Bit of a Kerfuffle

Clonie Gowen
Clonie Gowen
From time to time a calming influence is required at the table, and today that person was Clonie Gowen. With one player yelling at the dealer for accidentally mucking his cards, Gowen quoted the TD rules in which players are responsible for the protection of their own hands and cannot blame the dealer if they are subsequently pulled into the muck. The player seemed to accept this and the situation was quickly diffused without the need for a tournament director to step in.

I wish we had Gowen down at my local cardroom, although that's just because I'm tired of looking at big, burly men.
