How will you deal with having to become a less private person after living so much of your life out of the public eye?
Also, could you just contact several of the known players that have met you irl and just tell them to post ITT so we can be done with all of that nonsense and move on? I'm sure that if they understood the circumstances, and that your credibility and reputation were being questioned, they would be happy to come to your defense and help clear things up. It's just that it seems to be detracting from what could be a very fascinating well and, imo, if anyone can do something to put an end to it, you can.
Thanks again and take care.
Well my life in poker versus day to day life was different. So in a way not much is changing. I am still the same person I was in my day to day life, I am just bringing a little more of that into poker.
I am sorry, I won't do that. This is a place for questions for me, not a place for others to step in a defend or justify me. I do not feel my credibility or reputation will be damaged in anyway by this, it is what it already is. Also, I never stated they were "known" people.
