February 6, 2010 (Part 1); Talk 'N Text walks out, forfeits game

The Talk 'N Text Tropang Texters walked out of the playing court after the flagrant foul penalty two called on Ranidel de Ocampo after he allegedly hit Ginebra guard Ronald Tubid in the face with his elbow while the guard was driving to the basket.

After the call was made, Texters head coach Chot Reyes called his players and walked off the court, the third team in PBA history to have ever done such act. The first being Anejo Rum 65 back in 1990 when they were battling San Miguel Beer, next was in the early 2000's when Red Bull faced San Miguel as well. Red Bull, meanwhile, went back to the court and finished the game.

The score read Ginebra leading Talk 'N Text, 27-20 in the first quarter of action when the walk out happened.

In the second game, Rain or Shine forces a clincher on Sunday as they defeat Purefoods, 103-100 in Game 4 of their best-of-five series.
