Barry Says Russ is Innocent - Poker News

On the recent PAD gordon mentions something about Hamilton and Barry says he is innocent for sure.

He mentioned it on National Television I don't see why he wouldn't discuss this in the forums.

And mods this is def gossip/news so don't move it to televised poker.

It def deserves its own thread here.

i just watched and i think barry has some 'splainin to do

jmil23 · 06-25-2009, 05:08 AM

that's pretty ridiculous. I have a lot of respect for barry and hope he can offer at least some explanation...

Right after Barry said "He didn't do it" Phil Gordon goes Really? About 5 seconds later Barry says to Phil "You should realize... and the Ali talks over him. I get the feeling Barry was gonna tell him not to air dirty laundry in public.

Barry, we know you and Russ are cool but that guy flat out stole money from people IMO. Defending him isn't appropriate.

no on thinks that there is some reasonable chance he could be right?

I remember a thread/discussion about this when the scandal was more current. Not that surprised to see him standing up to a friend, even if that friend is a cheating scumbag.

I never understood the love Barry gets here. Imo he's a pretentious defensive sycophant (disrespecting internet "math kids" and then trying to appeal to them with "lol donkaments" and whatnot).

Obv in on the scam himself...

Conversation doesn't sound like Barry just telling him no to air dirty laundry in public imo. As far as I can hear the entire conversation goes:

Barry: He didn't do it by the way
Gordon: Really?
Barry: Yeah
Gordon: Come on
Barry: For sure. For sure he didn't. I mean I know more than most people. No, he didn't do it.
...
Barry: You should realise when (and then Ali starts talking)

Would for sure be interesting to know what it is that Barry knows...
