"I'm never swapping with you again," said Sam Grafton loudly from another table.
"You don't talk," Demircan shouted back at Grafton. "I know what you did to my friend yesterday. You don't talk."
"It's not as bad as it sounds," Grafton explained to the players who had already forgotten the hand and were fixated on the ensuing spat. "I four-bet ace-nine off."
"You don't talk," continued Dermican, perhaps not realising that that is precisely what Grafton is famed for.
