I’m currently watching the 25k head-op PLO tourney on Full Tilt. I noticed a very interesting second round match-up of Brian Hastings and Phil “OMGClayAiken†Galfond. I noticed that Phil had lost connection and was very impressed when Brian did the right thing by letting time run all the down and then raising to take the pot. He easily could’ve been raising as fast as he could and whittled Phil down to nothing while he was disconnected. Phil was very thankful for it and said he would have done the same. It’s nice to see two one stars show some class.
Hastings also showed he understands responsibility. He is a pro for the site and also is a member of Cardrunners. It would look bad to have someone representing a couple of well known sites getting as many chips as possible while someone was unable to defend their chips. Way to be a good representative of the game Brian.
