I've played with Adil in his private games at Coco. Nice guy. Loose but knows the game. Heard there is some collusion with him and a buddy of his where Adil gets a percentage of profit. Kind of Shady.

Luke - good young dude. Very tilty. Having fun with his life.

Suied. Cocky at table. Don't know anything else about him.

Not sure the purpose of the thread except to hate on guys. If they can't play, find their table and scoop.

itt online players are forgetting that in the live world, you don't need to be nl5 online to be invited to private games easier than play money online

source: i know many guys on the live scene who grafted a few years to be invited in those games. They can't beat micros yet are millionaires now after a few years.

Pretty sure Adil, like most other south florida pros, supplements his income by working morning shift at applebees.

I live in Vegas and as a local it doesnt cost much to go to such parties and pretend to ball out especially when pulling money together, these hotlels have pool parties everyday and admission is $12-$100 plus limos will pick you up wherever you are and give you drink vouchers, you can have a night like theirs for under $150, now i would be slightly envious they do not have to work the next day and one girl is fine but everything else meh

Pretty sure you already answered the question in your opening post. You don't have to be the greatest player to win the most money in poker. Every single on of these guy you speak of is somehow invited to the greatest of private games within casinos (aka Miamiboss playing 25/25nl minettis game with the likes of people like MJ and them) . They may be slightly -EV to break even players in a regular 2/5 no limit lineup but when you have connections to play in these super soft private games it does not even matter

I went fishing in the Keys. Had a cool guide who told me all about the drug trade. There are a ton of people in Miami who live bigger lifestyles then their job could supply. It's all drugs.

Hell he even had stories of other guides finding bags full of blow or cash floating around. Obv something went wrong in the transfer because they drop the **** from planes. We even fished a crashed drug plane, makes for good habitat.

So yeah.. cocaine.

Not just the promoter, but the people who work at the club. When you walk up to the club, be confident, ask the door guy how he's doing, etc. Make friends. You'd be surprised just how far being friendly goes. And dress appropriate for the club. Cloths that fit well. And when you get hooked up, like with free drinks, bottles, and/or a table, tip well. I didn't brag about it on social media, but i'll just say i had a great time up until my early 30's. Now i'm married.

the British guy, Luke B, is a cool dude and good at poker.

edit: some of the most "balling" poker players i know double as bookies. Texas and Florida are the 2006 Party Poker for bookies. (really anywhere in the south, especially this time of year)

This. Miami is the US capital of ponzi schemes. I got boats and hoes so invest more money in my company Prestige Worldwide so I can buy more boats and hoes, 'till it all goes up my nose and I'm on American Greed.

Are you for real Hastings? You can't be right?

I at one point actually thought you had something in you're head now I'm not so sure.

a) They are publicly flaunting this to the world - they want people to see it and discuss it. Thats actually the sole purpose of them posting everything that is being discussed here.
b) This is what NVG is for. Might not be to some peoples tastes but maybe take your own advice and if you don't like it don't read it.
c) You seem to have increased your posting in NVG lately in a vast array of threads usually telling people how stupid they are. Why don't you go post in the only thread where people want your opinion. The one about you being a massive scumbag. It's been on the front page for weeks and has 3,500 posts and 750,000 views. Just in case you missed it http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/29...-post-1541885/

Maybe deal with your own **** before looking down on others

These pros can't be doing all that well if they keep having to cram so many people into a tiny boat or hot tub.

I heard a guy on the radio use the phrase "thirty thousandaire" and I think this applies. Guys that make that much but act like they're a NBA player.
