I don't think anyone questioning if your neutrality is genuine. I think that's pretty obvious. But as a few people have pointed out, it can be exasperating to hear you constantly respond with 'eh eh.. i dunno man...'. This is something you've done on a wide variety of topics. I find it incredibly endearing when people are opinionated on certain topics, and feel the polar opposite when someone tries to stay neutral on everything (which just appears that they're trying too hard to please everyone).

I'm a fan of the podcast, and have watched for 3+ years. so take your 14 yr old girl 'hater' BS elsewhere (directed at your fanboys, not you Joey...)

This kind of behaviour is a sign of weakness and inner fear of being the subject of bullying themselves. Its often followed by a big disappointment when no respect is given to this person as obviously no respect is deserved. Kind of like Gordon Vayo in the main. Some of the things that were said were just terrible and obv King should have been kicked out long before from the casino.
This is an interesting perspective but i'm wondering where you conclude Doug's behaviour as bullying and showing signs of being afraid to be bullied. Do you have a background in psychology?

I was kinda disappointed in some of Doug's dull comebacks which were essentially parroting the insult. hashfag - "you're scared of me" Doug - "yeah i'm scared of you". I thought Doug was more witty than this.

Anyone debating whether this is good for poker or not is stupid.

This will get more views because people inside poker wonder what the fuzz is about but no one will watch this and walk away with a (more) positive impression about poker.

I'm very disappointed in PNIA for letting people like #king and Cantu on, it was clear that they were there with an agenda and it should have been easy to predict. It's fine to bring on characters like Dentale but #king and Cantu are just vile personalities.

Better to stick to watching old PAD/HSP/TBG/... than any of these new shows apparantly.

Also anyone saying people should confront #king physically for his antics, that is exactly what he wants. He's the kind of guy that gets punched once and will sue for a million dollars or will try to assasinate your character online. People should just ignore him and he should never have gotten a seat without having a min buyin.

As bad as #King was, Cantu is 10x worse. Dude is unbearable.

Asstag claims he has been banned from 11 Casinos now? Why in the world would PNIA put this abortion on their show to give him any attention

no he's the type of insecure loud mouth pussy who gets his teeth knocked out once and goes back in his shell.

still not worth getting arrested over.

Obviously he is broke. Whoever believes he is doing this to generate publicity for his accounting business is naive, it's like believing Bilzerian finances his lifestyle with his poker winnings. The difference of course being that Bilzerian is a real baller, unlike this clown.

People who pay for an accountant would run from an individual as this.

This paragraph is like top 10 polite insults of all time.

Are you telling me that you don't have strong and blunt and direct opinions on the inside that you simply don't reveal on the outside? That inside you're also like: "I don't know, maybe, I don't know, I see both sides, I don't know, maybe"?
Read back through the thread and this post broke my brain.

Hilariously rigid line of thought... You're projecting your reality onto others.

I, unlike most apparently, enjoyed the stream. It was something out of the ordinary... strange at times, but it kept me watching. "Bad for poker".. who cares at this point. Get over it.

If you are secure in yourself you actually don't have to act on every "fat slob" that talks **** on you or your wife. As Deeb said later, consider the messenger. That guy was talking **** on the whole table but the table knew he was the mark and all the talk was a bunch of meaningless banter(poop). They actually trolled Deeb a bit with him when it was obvious they knew he was being over the line with some of his comments towards Deeb and his family. He was just such a ridiculous character that anything that came out of his mouth could easily be ignored or joked upon by the table. Deed did the best thing possible in just stacking the guy and ignoring the guy. It's not worth Deeb's time to entertain such a trashy person with a comeback or altercation.

+1 on this.

constant good or bad for poker talk is all moot.

only one thing "GOOD" for poker.

US online market back full steam in all states and merged Intl.

Sites again pump money into lots of poker shows on network TV (aka infomercials, Poker After Dark, etc etc)

everything else is a rounding error compared to that.

It'll likely be the last time someone who is life banned from any casino is invited on this show again.

I played for a few years of 2/5 and 5/5 with hashtagking/salomon ponte at Fallsview & Woodbine in Ontario, before he won that Florida tourney then turned into hashtagking. He was super quiet back then, so he wasn't always a wresting heel.

But anyways I guess ill be seeing him more again since hes finally broke lol

was trying to pawn his junk for a buy in, he lost his passport at the casino, credit card got declined trying to pay hotel bill, was heard on stream saying he owed his bookie $70k, tipped his last $22 driving off the casino property, pretty safe to say he's broke or down to his last penny
