Deeb in a Ruckus

"He called me a f***ing idiot."

"And he told me I have no etiquette."

Turns out that the player complaining had been involved in a hand with Freddy Deeb, and the player in question had attempted to push his hand into the muck. Deeb asked to see the hand, it turned out that he had a right to see it, and the dealer turned it over. This is the point at which Deeb called his opponent a "f***ing idiot". And the opponent told Deeb he had "no etiquette".

The player, whom we didn't recognize, called for the floor and complained that Deeb had called him a "f***ing idiot."

"Clearly a penalty," he declared.

The floor asked the dealer what happened and she said that the unknown player had pushed his cards into the muck, and both players had called each other names. The unknown player became rather angry, claiming that only Deeb had been at fault. He was issued with a one round penalty.

He continued to loudly complain at the rail - Deeb was also called up on a one round penalty, but as the complaining from the unknown player increased, his penalty increased to two rounds, and then three. Eventually TD Jack Effel got involved.

"You wanna go for disqualification? I'm not far off," he announced. The player trudged off to serve his penalty elsewhere.
