Scotty's behaviour was unacceptable. I was most amazed at Scotty's lay down of the best hand to keep Eric in the tournament and his use of the f-bomb with no penalty.

You all might be interested in a professional opinion:

Response to the antics of Scotty Nguyen from none other than respected tournament director Matt Savage. Matt Savage's Response. There is also a youtube video of his actions in the article for those of you who missed it.

I was with a group of friends in vegas and we ran into him on his way back to the final table after a break, he was extremely friendly and stopped for pics and chatted a few. but you could tell he had definetly had a few drinks.

Wait so Scotty won the damn tournament he was shown at drunk? WOW, just wow. How good a player does he have to be to pull that off...........

I still think his whole incident should never have happened. Its a shame and he should apologize the next live opportunity he gets.............

This is a good point. Scotty won the $50,000 Horse Event drunk!!!

That is impressive, sad but impressive. I have won a couple of freerolls and $1 tourneys drunk but can't imagine fairing very well in the WSOP that way. Heck I would not fair well sober.
