Doug Polk and Ike Haxton have been going at it on Twitter over a perceived feud that stems back to Polk’s public spat with Ben Tollerene.
And just to be clear, you only behave this way vs me because your buddy ben86 scammed me

The feud with Ike Haxton reopened when Polk joined in a Twitter thread where YouTube vlogger Andrew Neeme was questioning why the Venetian Resort poker room bans players taking photographs of their chip stack.
He then recanted when it happened to him, with Ike Haxton loudly supporting the ruling from the same table.
Polk then told everyone in the thread that the only reason Haxton behaves this way against him is because of a long-standing feud with PLO wizard Ben Tollerene.
“This happened to me in a Florida 25k once. Told the floor it was a horrible ruling. “Actually its an awesome rule” I hear from the peanut gallery. I turn around, its @ikepoker gloating. “Everywhere should do this” Thanks Ike.”
Ike Haxton responded:
“You were asking the dealer to hold up so that you could record and narrate your all ins in a 25k turbo. Everyone at the table thought you were being obnoxious.”
“And just to be clear, this wasn’t a situation I stumbled on and commented from “the peanut gallery.” I was sitting right next to you and I was the one who called the floor.”
Did Ben Tollerene Scam Doug Polk?
The story with Ben Tollerene, a good friend of Ike Haxton, goes back more than five years.
