It is a trophy, no big deal.

If there were real bricks of cash on the table and one of them swiped it for some fun and games, I'm sure people would be singing a different tune. Well, obviously? WTF are you even saying? Are you comparing the trophy to money or just stating an obvious irrelevant point? Either way you are coming off ridiculous. You sound like UCLABRUINZ.

Its a ****ing cheap trophy, and it ended up in the right hands.

If someone offered you enough money I'm 100% sure you would steal the trophy too.

Well there you have it, I think it's a big deal, you don't. I've never heard specifically where the money for the WSOP bracelet comes from, but I would have the same reaction if they stole a bracelet. Part of the prizepool just means "something you can win by playing the tourney." If the trophy was a solid gold statue valued at 10k that was added by stars as incentive for ladies to play, would that make a difference even though money wasn't taken out?

I don't think that it is anyone's right to judge what is "no big deal" to steal. The value of the trophy is irrelevant, a prize was stolen and had to be forcibly returned. My point regarding the "bricks of cash" is that people ITT seem to be giving theft of a prize a free pass because they can't see past the object that is the ladies event trophy.

And please don't put words in my mouth or "actions in my hands", I would not steal that trophy for any amount of money. Maybe its a bit unfathomable to you that someone would have that kind of moral compass, but I suppose you'll have to take my word for it. Saying that you are "100% sure" that I would steal given the proper motives is rather insulting. Please don't take this last paragraph overboard, I can see the insane hypotheticals coming where someone offers me a billion, it gets wired into a swiss bank account where no one will ever see or hear about it. I just don't steal. The end.

or bad extrapolations of analogies. it was only to tell that guy that people can steal something with the intention of giving it back. it had nothing to say about the severity of what they were doing. it wasnt even relevant to the thread to begin with but i just thought what he said was goofy so i wanted to clear it up. so it definitely doesnt matter now!

Thankfully he turned it down.

Only seems appropriate to end this post a Martin Luther King quote: "The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and conveniences, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy."

looks like a massive brag post to me

Nah, you are lying to yourself if someone had 100k cash in front of you and said all you gotta do is take the trophy n get it to your room....and you can easily bring it back after you would 100% take it.

But its cool if you wanna have that image on the forums. And yes, if the money came out of the prizepool it would be a difference because you'd be stealing from players as opposed to a 20$ trophy from a multimillion dollar business.

If someone offered you a lifechanging amount of money to steal a 20$ item from walmart, theres no way anyone in the world would have a moral compass to not steal it.

life-changing money was obviously a joke, i did it for peanuts because i wanted to

made this guy go from douche to cool imo wp

Has anyone else noticed the irony that these guys made their sweat thread in the "Bakes" style?

[Bakes]

I don't know why you think you know me so well, but you certainly do not. Integrity is far more valuable to me than money. I don't really care what degree of badness you assign to stealing from players vs huge companies, small amounts vs large amounts, I don't and would not do any of it.

With that being said, obviously this isn't the worst thing in the world that has happened wrt theft. However, it is still theft of a prize from a poker tournament and as poker tournaments are my main source of income, I consider it very serious business.

This ****'s over, pending review to see if disciplinary action will be taken.
