Bad Beat Booth Ready For Action

Bad Beat Booth
Bad Beat Booth
One of the innovations of the APT tournament room here in the Galaxy StarWorld Casino is the "Bad Beat Booth." The booth is set up in the corner of the room with a camera inside and allows players to vent their anger following their bust-outs from the tournament.

Now that we are starting to receive a few bust-outs we should start to see the booth put to use. We've already overheard one player looking to release his rage after flopping a full house with {A-?}{A-?} on a {A-?}{10-?}{10-?} board against an opponent holding {A-?}{10-?}. Of course the case {10-?} fell to give his opponent quads and a one-outer for the win. A bad beat story that many of his friends will doubtless have to listen to over the coming years, but which will now be etched permanently in APT history thanks to the "Bad Beat Booth."
