As the final table of the European Poker Tour has come to a close, the final 8 rankings has been decided and on eighth spot is Kevin MacPhee with a pretty good €63,694. Then thing is that MacPhee seemed a bit disappointed with the results and blamed it on Barny Boatman, his opponent who was responsible with his elimination.

So Close to the Double Title

Kevin MacPhee is no stranger to the world of Poker and has even acquired more than $2 million in live tournament winnings over the course of his career of four years. This year’s EPT San Remo saw him finish on eighth place which is even a major achievement, but the thing about it is that was so close to be the first ever EPT double title holder as he won last year’s EPT Berlin for more than $1.4 million. MacPhee later on vented his anger over at twitter aimed towards the player who was responsible for eliminating him in eighth place during the EPT San Remo, Barny Boatman.

Emotional Rampage on Twitter

Of course, you really can understand why the usually laid back MacPhee was as frustrated as he is with the turn of events as he was so close to earning something worth bragging about. MacPhee just couldn’t contain all the frustration and tweeted “I fold 30 hands straight down to 530k then shove 9 bbs in the sb and barnyboatman calls off with Q7s?!? Is this guy f***ing retarded?” MacPhee was just so emotional that he even involved this year’s winner of the EPT San Remo, Andrey Pateychuk, calling him a retard as well. Of course, he later on came to his senses and took back what he said about Pateychuk. Later on, Boatman heard of the tweet and came along to sort things out with MacPhee and said: “Hi KevinMacPhee. You gave me a strong tell that you were weak, though i may have called anyway. Retarded? If you say so. But no hard feelings eh?” surely, most of us will definitely calm down when the response is somewhere along those lines.

MacPhee later on apologized for his emotional outburst on twitter and said “Sorry for my outburst earlier… was steaming super hard ? Apologies to BArnyBoatman too… sorry mate!” Boatman then replied assuring that everything’s in the past and even empathised with MacPhee. In the end, the issue is resolved, and things will move on just fine.
