Poker Pro Dan Cates Throws Temper Tantrum Down Under
Poker pro Dan Cates was not a happy camper this weekend.
Playing in the $100,000 Challenge at this year’s Aussie Challenge, Cates ran kings into aces twice, and that set him over the edge.
Cates threw cards across the table at poker player Jeff Rossiter and shouted “Are you f***ing kidding me?!?!”
The coverage of his tantrum: "Cates exploded by grabbing a handful of chips and throwing them like a baseball player across the table at Rossiter. Some of the chips bounced on the table in front of Rossiter, one or two hit him in the chest, and a couple more stumbled onto the floor. After doing so, Cates just sat there, visibly steamed with what had occurred. Rossiter took it quite well, whereas many people might've freaked out in their own right after having chips hurled at them."
Cates was eliminated.
