You'd think if he was going to do that, he'd pull a Producers-style con, and sell off his action to as many people as he could (sell more than 100% of his action) and then just play horrible poker and lose.

Come to think of it, that's a good scam....

NR:
"Money management is not something I am good at, making money and spending money I am gifted like no other. One of my best friends is an expert at money management and I have made a deal with him to manage my finances and help me make sure I never have any financial issues ever again."

This expert friend of his needs to tell him to pay off his debts first and foremost. If his name gets out of the mud, he can go back to scamming students for crap coaching at $75/hr...

"If you are interested in receiving coaching for SNG/MTT's just shoot me an email nickrainey@gmail.com and we can set up a session. I am charging $75/hr or $200 for three hours."

More crap from this toolbag:

"When you can sit down at your computer and literally print $100 bills out of the machine it is easy to fall into the trap I did. Anytime I wanted to buy something nice or needed money to pay for something I could work hard for a few days and had it taken care of with no problems. "

Ok, then just "print" out enough money to pay off the people whom you owe.

The B.C. Poker Championship will be held from October 23rd to November 9th at the River Rock Casino in Richmond, the suburb immediately south of Vancouver. It begins with a $550 Bounty Event.

Not that I'm suggesting anyone should try and bring new meaning to the phrase....

3. Aussie Poker Pro David Saab BUSTED
4. How Will Howard Lederer do in Jail?

etc.

I wonder why Pokerstars doesn't ban people for this when they set of precedent of banning people for off-site scamming with ebon07. And yes, I understand that what ebon07 was collusion, but it was collusion that was beneficial for all the players at his table.

Is it just me or do you guys also think that its weird to invite people into a grinderhouse to play the whole day and give away big parts of their profit? And every grinder who wins more than 10k a month gets his own room. Thats pathetic. This reminds me of the grindhouses in China where people have to play world of warcraft the whole day. Pretty unethical.Lol just saw he has little monitors in the house where he can see who grinds etc. Thats funny.

Rainey's back grinding the $8, $15 & $35 180 Man SNGs on Stars, playing ~125 games a day and running good so far.

Time to do the right thing Nick and start clearing this debt at $750 a week, til you bink an MTT that is!

I don't want to say that you didn't get scammed, his acting afterwards says enough, but just to be clear: the website wsopdb.com isn't persé 100% accurate. You should manually check the entrance PDF sheets WSOP.com published if you really want to make sure someone didn't play. Not so much for this case, but for future cases. I have looked up tournaments played for lot's of players (for my work) and have found lot's of inconsistencies.
