I honestly can't think of a worse reply by WPT Poker. Seriously, saying "We stole your money and spent it on hookers" would have been more appropriate and less insulting.

Nice to read a thread on 2+2 where OP has handled his situation impeccably and the interwebs community has shown just as much Class in supporting him with his situation (baring the one imbecilic post 2K isn't money post).

Hope you get your money or some closure on this matter OP,

Nice job, OP. Good luck. I hate the BS people have to go through just to get what's due them.

WPT Magazine, pay up. Now.

The best part is how he criticizes the OP for going public with this, and then in the same post points out that he's taking care of the issue, presumably because of the OP going public with this. That'll teach him!

wow are you both ignorant and dumb as rocks. maybe this is flying over head but creating this thread equates to "doing something"; op is getting paid all his money without lifting a finger. you puffed out your chest and wasted days of your life to get "much" of what was owed, meaning you didn't even get all the money that was owed to you, and you are proud of that.

props on handling this all so well op, glad you are getting paid; and lol WPT magazine.

He only posted these things in a public forum because the private communications were not yielding results.

Sad to say we live in a world where stuff like this happens but you gotta be uplifted a bit by the response something like this has on 2+2ers. With the exception of a few posts everyone has been super supportive. I think the internet is just awesome in that there is no dirty laundry you can shove under the bed, there's usually a format where you can expose almost anything nowadays. Safe to say, if you did some **** you can never be sure anymore it won't come out. Look at the Matt scandal thing. Police are also looking more and more to things like FB also. Just wanted to stop and appreciate this development. And this will only increase with more and more ppl being online every year. The internet is not just for porn! Yay!

I was with you till you were excited about this last statement. Son, I am disapoint.

Your disappointment is duly noted. True I could have left that out, but didn't - I'm sure the forum gods will forgive. Either way guess I was just happy to come across this thread on the slowest day of the week (monday or friday take ur pick). Very good read.

Good luck Greg. Jon's reply in this thread was LOL worthy.

And is probably the final nail in the coffin of the idea of me resubscribing.

Well said.

Would've made me apply for a job there too.

+1 I've cancelled mine

Hi, Jon. First, I would like to thank you for for increasing the entertainment level of this thread. Around here the only thing we enjoy more than publicly shaming scummy behavior is the voyeuristic pleasure of watching the scumbag(s) somehow make themselves look even worse. Now, let's play follow the bold text:
1 - It is not appropriate for a creditor to seek redress when their debtor refuses to make payment and has lied to them repeatedly? And if you're going to lie, for god's sake please be more creative than "we're out of checks." Every time an editor utters a stale old lie a muse dies.
2 - Congratulations, you are partially correct here. Those that assumed WPT Magazine was in financial difficulty did jump the gun. They should have said you are either on the brink of bankruptcy or you simply do not operate in a professional manner.
3 - You must have to work "very hard" to produced a quality magazine if this is the level of your writing and editing skills.
4 - See #3 ... sigh, another muse just died.

Now let's play another game: What will Jon do after WPT Poker?
1 - Write a book, "In A Deep Hole? How To Keep Digging"
2 - Write a book, "Streamline Your Interview Schedule: Leverage Social Media & Poor Grammar To Create More Free Time"
3 - Become Matt Marafioti's publicist.
