I wonder why someone that has paid so much in taxes and won so much in cash games would have needed a backer!?
I also wonder why a backer would drop such a superstar like Joe?????? I assume you were in makeup Joe? Care to comment?
Also, for good measure, why would you berate someone that seeks backing to reduce the variance of poker when
1. you had a backer and I assume managed to prove to him you were an idiot just as you proved to everyone that knows anything about poker in your epic poker FT performance
2. The only way you could afford the 20k buyin was by enlisting SEVERAL BACKERS ON TWOPLUSTWO!
Lets hope you aren't broke by LAPC
Lets also hope if you are you can work your charm/link your hendon mob and scam some more people! get a markup ffs! I'll tell whoever you want I'm a fish!
Lol at making assumptions w/o knowing anything...but then this is 2+2.
Ever consider the backer had some financial hardships due to some recent developments, eg Black Friday.
Also Joe was one of the very few guys that was not in makeup and actually made a profit for his backer, so the backer decided to let him go. I'm sure you'd understand being a mtt pro. The horses a backer keeps are the ones in the hole.
Also lol at being able to afford all the big buy in live events even if you were a big winner in cash games. How are you staked for live events if you don't understand the variance in them?
Finally just because somebody crushes in poker doesn't mean he has an unlimited amount of cash. Unlike you (who sounds like can barely make ends meet) Joe has a family and a responsibility and is very wise w/ his money.
