OP, I'll take your silence as acknowledging that you have no idea, which means there was no legitimate reason to derail the Zo thread with this nonsense.
If you had cared about the direction the other thread was going, you would have done something to help bring it back on track, like contributing some actual content (other than finding a way to bring your mortal enemy McKeehen into the discussion with no real reason to do so). But instead, you saw an opportunity to whine about your derail being removed and take yet another shot at McKeehen. So if "Zo is loving the direction this thread went", I guess he loved that you were doing your part as well.
I guess you're not aware that your derails of other threads and carrying on about some encounter years ago make you look a whole lot worse than McKeehen.
Okay first of all, since you seem to be constantly claiming that I am derailing threads about McKeehen you couldn't be more wrong. Until very recently I hadn't mentioned him at all probably in over a year or more. However, maybe you didn't give a crap but I found it ridiculous that a guy who used to be a constant poster before winning the main appears all of a sudden to tell us to be 'cautious' about perhaps Mike B hustling at an airport. The post was laughable in my opinion. We all know by now about Borovetz and his airport escapades. There are much worse individuals out there in the poker community as we speak scamming tens of thousands of dollars and more from people. Like Hawkins who cheated his backer or Chino Rheem and now Zo Karim who at least took Glantz for $10,000 (according to his twitter) and countless others.
And before I was a poster I used to read this forum and others for quite awhile. If I remember correctly McKeehen and Borovetz used to go back and forth a bunch seemingly joking with each other. So maybe there's some personal beef he has with Mike B to use his rare post to warn us about something everybody knows by now? And I'm sorry Bobo but as I've stated before, what does Mike get per person, $50? $100? Certainly not life changing money for anybody but there are these other scammers out there(Zo being the latest example) taking 5 figures from people.
So to conclude my reply to you, was I pissed that he blew off my wife 2 years ago? Sure. Do I think McKeehen has been a terrible ambassador for the game and has lots of issues? You betcha. But as someone who knows mafia guys playing poker in casinos and dangerous felons playing and all the outed big scammers, having the main event winner who seemingly used to have a playful relationship with Mike B randomly show up to 'warn us about a degen still hustling small amounts of money at an airport bothered me.
Sorry if you didn't agree and I won't mention the wife thing again or even bring McKeehen up again on here. Not worth my aggravation or seemingly yours. But for the record, I did contribute to the Zo Karim thread by mentioning hearing about him playing high stakes baccarat and commenting on the disgusting nature of it. It wasn't all about Joe McKeehen like you tried to portray.
