Warnie let it rip on Twitter after losing a few hands, and a lot of cash, at the World Series of Poker tournament in Las Vegas.

The father of three raised more than a few eyebrows when he blew off some steam as his big loss on the social media platform.

“Never been so angry in all my life,” the 46-year-old said. “Got Aces two hand in a row and both cracked. Once by two pair (KQ). Next hand sixes found a six on the flop!”

It all went downhill from the start of the game for Warnie.

He accompanied his first message with an angry face emoji. But he wasn’t finished there.

“Still in shock at what just happened, so sick!” he continued.

Shane is a regular poker player at the World Series.

“If anyone says that’s poker I will put one on their chin, game of skill my a**, get f#@?#%.”

The star had previously snapped a picture of his buy in ticket earlier in the week, which showed he’d payed a whopping $10,000 down the drain.

That’s a lot of money to lose just to be allowed to play!

At the time, his social media followers were quick to wish the sportsman luck, or marvel at his extravagance.
