With $1million at stake for the winner, the railing might be expected to get a bit noisy, but for Luke Vrabel it turned into a nightmare – the pro claiming that the floorman called him ‘an asshole’ and refused to prevent those watching the finale of the Colossus III event, including Matt Affleck’s girlfriend, from abusing him. .....

what's the big deal?
i've been called worse by a floorperson
obviously they confused Vrabel with Kassouf. That has to be the reason otherwise the floor staff should immediately have his ass kicked by Vrabel and a few others just on principle for being a fucking prick and allowing such behavior by the rail.. The response from the floor is inexcusable and guarantee if that had been somebody like Hellmuth or one of Hellmuth's buddies the floor would've been looking for a new job out of state because they would immediately be blackballed in NV.. The fact that the floor went so far as to even threaten Vrabel for daring to complain is even worse.. Sounds like a job for One Todd Witteles to investigate with Mr Seth Polansky immediately..Quote:

Posted on other article but begs the question again.. Seth addresses Hashtag but theres nothing but crickets over this asshole floor douchebag and his actions.. WSOP comes off looking shitty no matter how you look at it and best I can tell nobody from WSOP management has addressed the third party complaint.. The complaint coming from somebody other then Vrabel which has been ignored just looks like WSOP is either sticking their head in the sand as usual or just playing bullshit games like the favoritism that runs rampant when one of Hellmuth's buddies gets banned then magically unbanned within 48hrs yet abuse from the rail which is clearly a violation isn't dealt with and worse all but encouraged by a floor person who had a personal grudge against Vrabel.. Like a player or hate him the rules are steadfast and makes WSOP look like a circus show in the end with this shit going on.Quote:

BUMP
He's BACK
Somehow the very controversial Nicky P (Nicholas Palma), of all people, started a Twitter campaign to get Luke unbanned, and it worked. Everyone else had failed when advocating for Luke's return.
He registered for the Main and has cashed with a shortstack.

Vrabel actually charges people to follow him on Twitter, and blocks them if they don't send him $10. I did send him $5 in 2019, which he requested from people enjoying his "showering" tweets of Main Event bustouts. I was finding it entertaining as I was grinding deep in the Main myself, so I shipped him the fiver.
However, I have not paid anything to follow him since he unblocked me a few years ago. Despite cashing the Main and still being in, he demanded $20 from me (inflation lol) when I responded to one of his tweets.

I wasn't having it, given that HE was the one cashing in the Main, while I lost.
However, a sympathetic and generous radio listener, not wanting a rift to develop between me and Slay, stepped up and sent the $20 on my behalf.

I was almost speechless, especially after Marc Klang (remember him? he listens to PFA now also, apparently) said he was almost about to do the same for me.

Then Slay stepped in and said that he doesn't want this guy's money, and that he wasn't really going to block me.

:lol
I have a different opinion. I won't pay to follow anyone on Twitter. I pay for cable, Pokergo, Netflix, Amazon prime, even Paramount (so wife can watch Big Brother live feeds). But I won't pay to follow anyone on Twitter.
