Violence against pros

I'm sure we've all felt the hatred - INCREASED levels of hatred towards us players these days... The £70 jackpots made everything worse in my opinion and £100 ones will make it even worse. As far as I'm concerned, the Bell Fruits and Electrocoins :) were the best yet for streaks - even though very rare but Barcrest and Reds especially are utter rubbish! Anyway, back to the violence...

Walked into a pub, 3 £70 reds... bloke comes up to me as soon as I get on the 1st 1 and says "You gonna clean these out again, sunshine?" with a rather unamused expression on his face - knew he wasn't staff, just a peed of punter... So I said, "Yeah, I'm gonna try!" He answers "Good, well WHEN you do, I'll be TRYing to clean YOU out!" I smiled, unphased and said, "Looking forward to it! I'd better crack on then!"... So the fruits were done, he didn't even watch, went and sat by the bar muttering some nonsense and I'd made a good ton or so. Went up to him and said, "You still up for it then, mate?" He answered, "I was only talking about poker but they haven't got any cards left. The barman said, "yes we have, shall I get them?" causing him to frantically shake his head and say "I've gotta go, the missus needs me!" I then changed up my treasures.

Next time I went in he offered to buy me a drink and said "Fair play, son!" even though I'd bet he's a bit younger than I am!

No doubt there are proper nutters out there who WILL attack but on the whole most of them are all mouth, just hope you don't bump into the real bad guys I guess...

Any recent stories?

I had similar playing a Stakes & Prizes in a pub once, some wee guy would sit near bar and always made snide comments. Eventually that progressed to threats yet every time I turned round to look at him he turned away :) He kept this up for a few weeks until the thing got swapped out for something else, bit weird.
