Florida poker player Cemal Egilmez (pictured right) was arrested this week after allegedly slapping a fellow poker player at the Gulfstream Park casino in Hallandale, according to a report from local10.com. Egilmez was allegedly taunting the player he ended up slapping, saying to the man that he had “baby nuts.”

According to a police report, Egilmez was taunting his opponent at the table when the man being heckled got out of his seat and showed Egilmez and a woman sitting next to Egilmez a $500,000 balance in his bank account from his cellphone. That reportedly sent Egilmez over the edge.

Egilmez then allegedly assaulted the man.

Egilmez allegedly chipped one of the man’s teeth with his watch.
