Re: Andy Bloch's quote after winning first bracelet

Bloch is too aggressive. He should re think other players' ranges more and not always bet. Checking to induce is good too.

A founder is just someone that had the skills (technical or business) to launch a business. They are not necessarily someone making financial decisions for the operation of the company.

Frankly, I don't care about Andy anymore or any less than any of them.

I think the entire community of people that are owed money by FT do themselves a disservice when they shotgun blame to anyone that has ever worn a patch.

They should organize themselves, and focus attention and blame on the responsible parties. They should base all of their statements on provable fact.

But they don't. They come on here and spew. And they have done it so long that no one really gives a crap anymore. There is no more sympathy other than from others that have money sunk in FT.
The arrogance it takes to preach to people about legal approaches to this case when you can't even be bothered to read the legal documents regarding this matter is remarkable to behold. You sir are a gem. Can't wait to read more insights based on this method.

Re: Andy Bloch's quote after winning first bracelet

I really can't believe anyone would ever say that. I think if I ever win a bracelet I will simply say.......

Re: Andy Bloch's quote after winning first bracelet

Don't know anything about his involvement with FTP, but I must add that he did right by me in one of our only interactions:

He put a wild sick beat on me.

I whined like a degen loser.

I asked if he would at least give part of the pot to charity.

He let me pick one and payed it that day. I know people there and they verified he paid.

In before, "who cares" and "one right erases all wrongs" or whatever.

Re: Andy Bloch's quote after winning first bracelet

1.) Create a company.

2.) Say you're paid to endorse the company.

3.) Steal all the money from trust accounts.

4.) Profit.

Is that what he did? Should be an easy case to prove. Good luck to you.

Once class action lawyers start discovery, we'll find out who needs luck. I wonder what's in all those internal ftp emails. Should be fun times.
