Re: Luke 'FullFlush' Schwartz to appear on BBC show InsideOut

Certainly interesting to hear Andrew Feldman's side of it, but I did think that it read a bit confusingly. The two separate issues of how well he plays and his ethics/etiquette are mixed up, and at one point he appears to be challenging people HU to prove that he has "done everything above order".

Had to chuckle at this though :

Quote:
The fact that Full Tilt acknowledges me as a good player should shut everyone up because Full Tilt are very selective about their pros and they would not want a player on their books who has the slightest bit of controversy surrounding them, so they trust me
And even in that one sentence the two issues are mixed up.

Edit : And reading it back again, I would certainly have advised Andrew not to continually take the line "I've never been warned by a site" / "no one has proved anything". Just saying you didn't do whatever it is you're supposed to have done is perfectly sufficient and sounds a lot better.

Another Edit (I keep thinking of more things), a word to the interviewer :

Quote:
he has dealt with it all so far with maturity and an amazing amount of calmness, and now awaits his adversaries to put their money where their mouth is.
Um, no. "HU4Rollz" is not a mature way of dealing with criticism.

@Bonified

well put together +1

at the same time however, when he says 'no one can prove anything', Feldman just words it poorly. It can be very very frustrating to be accused of something that you haven't done, because neither side can prove anything but your name is tarnished in the process regardless.

guilty or innocent, this statement is fitting either way.

andrew feldman seems like a decent guy, maybe not the sharpest tool in the box, but there's something kinda respectable about him.

he should learn to ignore all and any haters.
