Antonio Esfandiari dq'ed from PCA Main Event for urinating into a bottle

PokerStars Caribbean Adventure 2016 is on and Main Event is being played out at the moment. A lot of players busted already, but there was another player to exit today under very weird circumstances. Antonio Esfandiari was disqualified from PCA Main Event due to a "breach of etiquette" at the table.

Late on Day 2, Esfandiari admitted to urinating in an undercover container while being at the table with the rest of players. Apparently, Antonio made a prop bet with Bill Perkins that required him to lunge everywhere he went for 48 hours. After all of the lunging the bet made it extremely painful to move, and not to put himself in more hassle, he decided to cover himself with a towel and urinate into the cup/bottle, rather then leaving the table and going to the toilet. At the time of the disqualification, Esfandiari had about 100,000 in chips in the main event.

Esfandiari already apologized, saying he took things too far and that it was a lack of judgement on his behalf.

In the meantime, check out how Esfandiari's looked during his prop bet:

You can also kinda figure out from how he likes to play that he has very little shame :D

Hilarious story

LOL has to lunge to the bathroom... GG

The kid on the picture is like "Yo wtf is up with this guy?" lol

Gotta love Antonio~

This is fucking hilarious, holy shit.

Antonio is easily my favorite live pro ever. Dude is pure entertainment.

Impressed that he apologized and is not angry.

Why would he be angry? I mean he pissed in a bottle in a live tournament in front of thousands of people.

with a towel covering, under the table, during a break

What he did is not so unreasonable given the absurdity of the propbet. The idiotic thing was taking the propbet in the first place, I'm sure many other poker players would think trying to pee in a bottle would be more EV than lunging their way to the bathroom and risking of peeing themselves while doing so.

ofc he is not angry, he won the bet

Did he ?
