Re: Patrik Antonius Interview
Be content with what you have, for God has said, "Never
will I leave you; never will I forsake you." So say with
confidence, "The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid."
- Hebrews 13:5,6

Re: Patrik Antonius Interview
You should fight him like he offered, get it on PPV, sponsored exclusively by full tilt obv. You'll make millions.
You seem like a pussy cat to me though so doubt that will happen at all.

Re: Patrik Antonius Interview
Could someone photoshop a pic of Antonius running over Vos with a steamroller?
Just curious to see what it'd look like.

Vos, PA was out of line, and no one likes to be publicly slandered/libeled. However, you two are adults in fairly prominent positions and instead of resorting to name calling, temper tantrums, fights, etc... I'd like to see the professional players like Antonius & yourself, handle these kind of situations better.
Whether you call him up directly, or talk to his "people," I'm sure that there is an easy way to have a real solution.
You guys are millionaires. Most of the people here are no where near as lucky/privileged/skilled as either party in your dispute. Its not like the "poker community" was all running around screaming "oh my god, did you hear what Antonius said about Vos?" Most people could give a flying fart about personal infighting among millionaires. There is some weird Bruha between DN/Annie Duke, and Phil Gordon right? No one cares. We really don't care.
While you may feel your reputation was hurt, it wasn't. PA said something stupid, you got hurt, can we just move on and act like adults? We get one-outtered, runner-runnered, short stackers hit and run against us, and all sorts of tilt inducing scenarios happen on a daily basis... surely we can handle someone not liking us.
In the states, we have a saying that children speak when they are picked on by bullies. "Sticks and stones will break my bones, but words will never hurt me." Vos, you are not a child. Suck it up, and be a man. Stop being immature by continuing this feud with your colleague. Ignore PA. Ignore things that tilt you. Just focus on what is beneficial to you. Fighting with PA seems -EV IMO.

There's a lot of merit to what you say, and for the most part you are correct.
One thing though, there is already a forum thread on another site about this. There has been a previous 2+2 thread in NVG that covers an interview from Antonius and his slamming of me - at least here I get the jump on that this time and don't allow blind belief of his statements to fester.
Another.. I was not hurt, I was frustrated and annoyed. It's one thing for someone to abuse me on a forum, fair game. It's a place for conversation and people's opinions to be heard. But this is not that, this is going into media, and in the first article, print, with hear say and from what I can gather, lies. This thread is also a pretty good way for me to release some of the frustration and gauge if I really do get the dynamics of just what the hell is going on.

Re: Patrik Antonius Interview
Things are usually cleared out if you speak to the person directly instead of a third or fourth party fwiw.

Vos, if Roland interceded before, can you just talk to him again? For an industry that is full of dbags and jerks, PA comes across as a pretty mellow and agreeable guy. I've never met him, but if you spoke to him directly and he proves to be otherwise, then I could see the value of you posting here.
I wouldn't really want/care to talk to someone who has called me an ahole and all of that punching nonsense. Granted, people who say those kind of things aren't usually mellow and agreeable guys. If he said those things without justification, he's an arse, and I could care less what arses think.
Vos, do you see a solution possible that DOES NOT involve speaking with PA directly?
Good luck mate.

Re: Patrik Antonius Interview
I know who can help you Mark, that Joe Sebok guy. He is perfect. He can sign on and help anyone resolve any problem, no matter how easy or difficult it may seem.
He'll help no matter how much of a douche you are because he can fix anyone's problems for any reason, no problem.
In 3 hours this whole thing will be blown over and you will be feeding his kid cheerios in Monaco.
He still does hate you though, until this whole thing gets figured out, because in the end, it's a function of the fact that Sebok is just another Patrik manlover like all of us.
Go call Joe Sebok and all of your issues will be resolved fast and easy.
