Howard Lederer backs out of interview w/Diamond Flush

http://diamondflushpoker.com/2012/09...nd-his-family/


"This whole interview process has been much harder on he and his family than he expected."

LOL...What a joke. I think he knew he was going to get bent over by DF, in the interview sense, and chickened out. I can't wait to see what you come out with DF. You go girl!

This certainly won't help his cause.

Doesn't surprise me too much. I thought he came off as well as can be expected in the first interviews. Probably thinking he doesn't want to push his luck.

I'm surprised he had an answer when asked why he couldn't do the interview

He's innocent (according to him). Why not do the interview and set us all straight? It's obviously all just a big misunderstanding.

Howard has already done enough interviews and he gains nothing by doing these interviews imo. Howard did two different interviews already I wouldn't get greedy and selfish 2+2.

I agree with you that the first two interviews went well. I don't believe there were any contradictions in the interviews which had me thinking he was being very honest. Post BF I cant really fault his actions, obv. in a difficult spot.

Now however I really think he's hiding something and D F probably has a good idea what it is.

If D F delivers on her promise to speculate to "what the truth really is (based on his already on the record answers)", should be a very interesting week.

She may get her interview yet.

We will probably get more information this way than from the interview itself as now DF has no reason not to put everything out there very clearly rather than having to ask it in question form and possibly get slightly more cloudy answers. Either way, she clearly knows a lot of the true story not yet told and it sounds like she is ready to share

Re: Howard Lederer backs out of interview w/Diamond Flush

not surprised he backed out of the DF interview. I was shocked that he even did the second interview with 2+2.

I am interested in what the other people involved have to say (CF, Ivey, etc)

Unfortunate news. This is one interview I really wanted to hear.

Smart move by him. The "facts" of his story have been told. All that's left is to harass him over not returning the distributions sent in error. He has nothing to gain. His only mistake is scheduling it at all.
