Didn’t Scotty know he was busted from the tournament? The PCA adventure continues

Is he in, is he out? After just thinking we had it confirmed that Scotty was alive, well and doing good with a chip count of approximately 51,000 after having read it on his twitter, it seems as though Scotty missed a minor detail… That he busted the tournament. So the Prince of Poker is out of the PCA.


But he isn’t called the Prince of Poker for nothing! Scotty made sure to let his opponents know who rules the live stage. During the 2nd blind level he didn’t think it was enough to beat his opponent and let him muck his cards. He told him to show the cards and if the player had him beat Scotty would give him $500, if he didn’t Scotty would give him $100. The player’s cards remained mucked followed by Scotty’s; “Who do you think you’re messing with baby?”


After chasing down Scotty we find out that his premature joy over still being in the tournament was a bit of an editorial error and that he was busted thanks to a bad beat, Scotty says: “Poker is poker, baby. I busted on a bad-beat against 8,4 when i had pocket tens. Today I play 8 game championship, baby. New day!” So we are still in luck to see some more action from the Caribbean.


Scotty is at 20.00 pm (local time, CET -6) playing the 8 Game Championship, something for the multi skilled poker players, which is something we know Scotty is after winning the WSOP H.O.R.S.E in 2008. The tournament is expected to give some real interesting action and fellow stars such as Daniel Negreanu is one mentioning the prospect of playing the $5K tournament, so stay tuned for more of the action in the Bahamas and cheer on for Scotty here.

    Pretty funny :) You could have thought Scotty had a beer too many and sent away a quick tweet, “Still in with $51K, you don't win on the first day baby!”. Hope he does will in the 8 game championship now, may the cards be with you Scotty!
