Turbulence for Luke Schwartz\u2026<\/p>\n

After the shenanigans surrounding ‘sandwichgate’ and casino bans \u2013 it is hardly no surprise that Full Flush’s transatlantic journey was rocked by turbulence.<\/p>\n

Why is everyone hating on me?<\/h3>\n

The turbulence, however, started at the airport and not at 36,000 feet and was the talk of the reception at the M Resort. Schwartz arrived at the PartyPoker.com Premier League IV reception and exclaimed “why is everyone hating on me?”<\/p>\n

Maybe this is why\u2026.<\/p>\n

According to a witness, Schwartz turned up for his flight in London when there was only 45 minutes to go until take-off and he got refused boarding for being late. He also forgot to fill in his ESTA.<\/p>\n

We were greeted with a barrage of F words and he was asked to leave<\/h3>\n

The tournament organisers received an email from the airline \u2013 an excerpt is quoted below:<\/p>\n

“The passenger was told that the flight was closed and we could not take him. We were greeted with a barrage of F words and he was asked to leave.”<\/p>\n

Luke eventually had to go to another airport and got the flight to Vegas. FullFlush takes up the story from there:<\/p>\n

“I was in economy but managed to fall asleep in first class for six hours. After six hours I woke and I had two crew over me asking me if I had a ticket…oops. I met Phil Hellmuth at the reception – to be honest I always thought he was a donkey but actually he is a bit of a G.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
