A friend of mine was playing Hold 'Em on Pokerstars.com last week in the wee hours of the night-- let's say 2 AM. He proceeded to get beated, which for you non-poker players means that he had the advantage going into the hand but ended up losing the pot. This is a quite normal occurrence, especially on Stars.
He then e-mailed a Pokerstars Administrator as he usually does after he gets beated and proceeded to berate them for their cheating ways and awful beat delivery. Near the end of the e-mail, he threatened to "end it" over the beats.
Fast-forward to 4:30 AM.
Knock-knock. Said friend calls 911, saying there is someone at the door. The operator says "Yeah bro, it's a cop to see you."
The police got a call from Stars. They were checking to make sure he didn't "end it."
Worst beat ever? Maybe. But Stars is lookin' out.
