Re: Brad Booth's Apology to WCGrider, Others, and Poker Community
this was really hard to watch. hope he can pull it together and pay everyone back in the process. making this video public should be a good move on his part to increase the incentive for him to make things right.

Re: Brad Booth's Apology to WCGrider, Others, and Poker Community
At least he is admitting he was wrong & not running & making up BS excuses like all these other scumbags do.
Can't say I sympathize with him though, what he did was F'ed up & he is paying the price.

Brad you seem like a big husky guy. Oil/gas is booming. Get you a job on a rig working 30 on 7 off and rack up a quick 150k in a year. No excuses
edit: just saw he needs 500k. Oh well work a few years. You owe the debt.

cliffs: he's sorry, actually cried a bit, i do feel for him, but he ****ed up.
has backer
50/50 split
wants to use 75% of his 50% to pay everyone back.. if he wins anything at all and doesn't brick everything.
his mental state is not conducive for good poker.. i wish him the best..

Like what I said, he is from Northern Canada, their are TONS of jobs like this. Anyone who has a heart beat can get a job and do 100k+ in their first year, even more if your willing to work big-time hours. Its usually 14on/7off 12hr days though in Alberta.

Re: Brad Booth's Apology to WCGrider, Others, and Poker Community
Kudos to you Brad Booth, for making such a personal, honest video. Sorry you are having such awful problems at this time, I really think you need to reach out and get some professional help from a psychologist. Addictions to gambling and alcohol are very difficult, so no matter how strong of a person you are, help is really needed to overcome. I wish you luck in getting control over your life, becoming financially solvent, paying back the debts you owe, and ultimately finding peace and happiness in your life. Stay strong!

What if this guy doesnt even cash ffs? It looks like he is putting all his eggs in one basket.
Dude you need to look for another out because there is a very real possibility you dont make it. And if you dont, youre going to be crushed even more so than you are now.
