First and foremost, whatever type of community you want this to be, the comment that was made about my wife should simply not be tolerated. For this to be any semblance of a real community, you should immediately disassociate yourselves with someone who will cross that line. It is insanely offensive and disrespectful.
With regards to my chat, I have said numerous times that this is the single biggest regret I have in my life. Online poker has acted as a trigger for me that brings out some deeply repressed anger and its something I've worked on a lot. I am 1000x better now than I was 3-4 years ago though I still lapse from time to time. The point, though, is that this is something I acknowledge, regret and try to fix. On top of that, I have lost a ton of money as a result of the tilting dynamic that inevitably accompanies my chat.
Anyone mentioning my interactions with Primo simply doesn't understand the specific nature of that interaction. I will admit that I was inappropriate in that public interaction but I maintain that he was extremely wrong in how he handled it.
For people who try connect my chat with the "type of person" that I am, you are free to do that but I think it's pretty laughable to take such a specific interaction type and extrapolate it to someone's overall character.
You've really been just typing double standards throughout. You say that someone shouldn't talk about your wife and that it shouldn't be tolerated, however you have made prior comments about Primo's marriage. That IS talking about his wife. DUCY?
It's cool to own up to your mistakes and chat tilt, but how many times do you really think you can do that, then continue to do it over and over and over and over and it be acceptable? THAT is what's laughable. Truly wish you the best of luck with it though, hope you are able to work out your problems.

Now, the question is: if no clause was specified for a buyout, what's the standard?
a) The bet is a wash. No specific clause was agreed upon for a buyout.
b) Siervos wins the bet. It was reported Siervos was winning 35-33 at the time of the buyout.
c) livb apparently bought out for $1,500, which is 15% of the original wager. This extrapolates and whoever bet on livb owes the other party 15% of their original wager.
Thoughts?
Based on your failure of common sense and logic, I already suspect you told LivB to pay your debt for your losses after picking him. Don't deny it either, I know that makes perfect sense to you.
