yeah they said to write a letter in a year, but still. not really what i wanted to.

Pretty grimmey no one threw you some money. If it wasn't for you they'd have nada. I actually think that's really low life of them.

You should stay away from Mohegan until your 21 since they read 2+2. If you're caught there you could be banned and if you play that often it would suck to be banned from both places. One month isn't that long.

I'm not soft or sensitive by any means, but where's anyone's compassion these days?

To the guy who said "I get what I deserve:" I have been crushing 1/2nlhe at mohegan since I was 19. This was my fourth time playing at foxwoods and each time I have left with over 1k. Yet I have never been carded at either casino, even though I've probably been to Mohegan over 300 times. Casinos are class 3 gaming because liquor is served... the only reason under 21 isn't allowed. I could win a big jackpot playing Bingo, but not poker, just because of that. Are you really that heartless to say I got what I deserved? I am banned from Foxwoods for life... almost more devastating than not having 110k in my pocket because obviously I am more than just a "recreational" player and was really looking forward to be playing on a regular basis next month.
Maybe he did put it a little harsh, but in the broad scheme of things, yeah you kinda did get what you deserved. When you break the law and/or rules, and keep knowingly doing it, if and when you get caught, you deserve the penalty. Its not like the casino here denied paying the BBJP due to some technicality like "sorry you meantioned bad and beat in the same sentance during the course of play, thats collusion", ect. You were knowingly breaking one of the clear cut rules of the casino, no gaming unless your 21. The fact that you broke the rules/law in the past is no excuse for not being punished when you eventually do get caught. The fact that you may be good or great at something that your not supposed to be doing yet is somewhat irrelivant. You can be the safest, most skilled driver on the planet, guess what, a cop pulls you over and your 15, you are going to pay the consequenses.

If you're going to argue that logic, then she shouldn't get any more or less credit for everyone else on the table winning than every player who's ever played at Foxwoods. Except that she was unselfish enough not to muck.

Considering she said a few posts up, "Of course I wish I mucked," I am not sure this praise is deserved.

I have read nothing in the past few pages that smacks of unselfishness.

Ya I know that's extreme logic. My point is that someone saying something like "aw man I wish I had taken that seat when I had the chance 5 hours ago, I would've hit the bad beat!" really has no substance.

Are you serious? I didn't muck because I knew I gave everyone the opportunity of a lifetime and I willingly sacrificed and got nothing in return. Now of course I wish I mucked because people at the table were saying some pretty awful things about me, even though I willingly did something truly generous for them. I thought that someone would be "generous" enough to give me something, but I guess that's too much to ask.

You weren't doing anything generous, you just wanted the pot, please.

This. Everything she has posted thus far reeks of immaturity. So the far more likely explanation is that she was caught in the moment and kept her hand with the faint hope that it might play out in her favor.

P.S. People who do "truly generous" things don't do it with the hope of getting kickbacks for their efforts, and they certainly don't call attention to the fact that they are martyrs for a nobler cause. If you're expecting a quid pro quo, then by definition you're not being "unselfish" or "generous." You broke casino rules and still walked away with a profit from the game that you played illegally... but, hey... congratulations for falling on that sword so that the rest of the table (which you now condemn) could escape with the glory of your humble sacrifice. There's Jesus Christ, and then there's xbeatax.

Considering the pot was only about 200$ and I had over $1000 in front of me... I really didn't give a **** about the pot.

get off your pompous high horse. The only reason their enjoying their riches is because of her. Immaturity I woulda mucked it too if I was her knowing how selfish and harsh people wouldve reacted. Do you file taxes on your earnings sir....have you ever had a drink then drive your vehicle....speeded on the high way....jay walked...I put all those in the same category as her unlawfullness. She's not disputing anything she was wrong so be it. Everyone else acting selfishly on her behalf. Shame on them.

Like your friend at the table, that you also happened to drive to the casino? Definitely get a better friend. Sorry about the 86'ing and the bad manners you were subjected to.

I walked over and told the guy who won that he should do the right thing and toss you some cash. Don't think that will happen given his response to me. Just got back from Foxwoods, needless to say, it is all anyone talking about.

To be honest, I'm surprised Foxwoods even gave out the jackpot. With all the rules and stipulations I've heard about this jackpot being given out, from no one being allowed to mention the words bad beat to anyone having any electronic device out. Its almost like they don't "want" to give it away.

Just surprised that with someone under the age of 21 being involved in the hand, Foxwoods didn't say no way.

Ya that's true....def suprised it was even given out.
