2.My best wishes to everyone involved, but especially to those who, in this moment, are beginning to realize just how badly they messed up. Sometimes they just really lose control...

1. Really, you think?
2. Yes: +1

He's been consistent on this from the start.

So what about all the FTP pros who degened money away, what about all his FTP buds like Ivey, edog and Harmon who got paid in dirty money.

If something is wrong its wrong.

It's only wrong if they knew the money was dirty. AFAIK there is no proof that the likes of Lindgren and Harman knew that their dividends/salaries were tainted.

Quote:

You cant be some vocal moral crusader calling people out and not expect to get called out on this obvious hypocrisy.

There is no double-standard here. He isn't calling out others who owe, he's calling out a group of people who, it appears, willingly and knowingly deceived the whole poker community.

Daniel's made it clear that just because he won't publicly out people who owe/are broke degens, it doesn't mean he won't let someone know, privately, that these people shouldn't be loaned money. I think that's all that can be expected from him.

He made it clear that loaning someone money and not being paid back is different from winning money from someone and not being paid.

By "old school" standards loans come first, but if you loan money to someone you do so knowing the risks (since degeneracy it appears was/is more widespread among old school gamblers).

Anyway, Lindgren wasn't loaned money by OP and his FL league losses are obviously gambling losses.

I have learned a valuable lesson from poker pros like Big E.

it doesnt matter if you owe somebody money as long as they owe somebody money too.

I shall apply this to all my future debts (total sarcasm because Im not a scumbag like the people I at one time idolized)

IRS : Um Mr. Lindgren we are still waiting

Erick : Sorry family was in town. Will get a check out to you tomorrow.

IRS : Still haven't received your check Mr. Edog sir?

Erick : Just got back in town sorry. It went out today.

IRS :I don't think it went out, haven't gotten it?

Erick : Hey man just seeing your emails, sorry have been insanely busy with 3 month old, moving and getting back to playing. You have every right to do whatever you would like but i do promise I can get a check in the mail by tomorrow. I am in LA but have to go home tonight after poker to take care of some things. Hope that is ok.

ahhahaa sums up the degen

Consistent in the fact that he treats those he calls out differntly if they are not his friends.

They have known its dirty money for months, they know NOW.

What have they done?

DN said that if Bitar was to blame then why are JF and HL staying silent.......

he said their silence is support for Bitar and the wrong doings of FTP

Yet all these other FTP pro friends of DN are staying just as silent. (except Durrrr who has pledged to do the right thing)

See above.

DN is selectively calling out people and ignoring others.

Those facts are not in dispute.

Its Hypocrisy, plain and simple.

Yea, I'm pretty sure most ppl on here would return money they earned from their job if they found out their boss was shady/ripping ppl off. Get real please.

of course you are assuming that major shareholders had zero clue as to the shady things FTP was doing.

Talking of getting real, you are equating these huge shareholder dividend payments and playing on credit to a paying job.

I have seen no proof either way of what they knew except they are keeping silent.

If I genuinely knew nothing and had my rep at stake I would probably come out in public as Durrrr did and say exactly what I knew.

DN himself said that the silence is basically defending the guilty parties.
