He addressed it once while hammered and once again when he was sober.

It not only could be interpreted as suicidal, but also perhaps criminal/violent.

Your "friendly banter" is asking a hotel front desk clerk if you'd survive jumping from the 30th floor? Yea dude, that's a real panty-dropper.

Who the hell customizes and drops a ton of dough on a Sebring lmao.

Are you sure you weren't serious about killing yourself? Also, how long have you played poker and how much have you profited from it?

an actual insult to the real TREX that this wankster registered that name

Can't the casinos refuse business? I don't think this lawsuit is going to be good for this guy. He might even cost himself more by filing this lawsuit.

This Trex guy has just ruined the largest element of his damage claim - he admits to only playing at the Borgota one other time, admits his loss calculation is only speculative and is a gross number, not net. And he calls everyone else a moron or idiot - the cognitive dissonance is strong with this one!

Maybe if he hurries up and trashes the rest of his lawsuit, he can become part of the Postle documentary.

Lol $85,000 per year at the Borgata, unless his tax returns reflect that. And since his Hendon Mob page shows no cashes at the Borgata, it must have been cash games. Don't know what games he plays, but the larger games only go on the weekends, he lives in Mass., and he travels around the country following tournaments. I'm sure the Borgata legal team will have a field day with that claim if he can't prove those earnings there in the past, and he will lose credibility in the court's eye. And I'm sure his lawyer will love that he's talking about his case on the internet. What could go wrong?

$200,000 in sponsorships? Does he already have sponsorships? $200,000 for false imprisonment? I don't know what that's about, but if it's the Borgata requiring him to be evaluated in order to stay there, he could have said no and left.

In short, the Borgata is within it's right to not want his action. They have probably been sued for failing to take appropriate actions in similar situations, and may claim they were just being overly cautious. Even if his statement wasn't a joke about committing suicide, the real issue is whether a reasonable person might interpret it as such. Based on what I've seen him write here, I would say so.

His lawsuit has little chance of succeeding and might wind up getting him banned from all MGM properties, not just the Borgata. Why would a professional player risk that? If he's barely getting by and he's looking for an easy payday is one possibility. Or maybe he's just looking for a settlement of a few dozen $K. I sure hope it's not because he thinks he can win.

His best option was probably to apologize and request the lifetime ban be lifted. Based on his filing the lawsuit and his statements here, he doesn't seem inclined to do that.

Edit: Now I've read that he claims that he's only been to the Borgata one time. He's going to be laughed out of court if it gets that far.

I'm no expert on how the universe works but maybe, just maybe this "black cloud" is a little thing called karma. You can't just go around acting like the world revolves around you and treating others like garbage and expect to live a fulfilled and happy life.

Anyone who's played with you knows your reputation as angry, miserable, toxic etc. I have played with you a few times myself so this is not just hearsay.

You aren't a victim here guy.

You need a reason to refuse, a legit one at least.

LOL. The “black cloud” is him being a mtt player trying to hang in mid/high stakes cash games and being completely out of his element.

A lot of big winners are complete pieces of ****. Karma has nothing to do with playing **** ranges and tilt 3betting atc as if that’s going to improve your level of play.

actually they don't need any reason at all to trespass anyone they want.

He's to blame for not making himself clear why he was asking about how high is room would be, and then mentioning jumping out of it.
You can understand the situation from the hotels point of view.

They didn't order the psyche evaluation until after he told them he was a professional poker player.

Uhhhh yeah ok I'm sure a 2004 Chrysler Sebring is right a top the criminals top most wanted cars. So what happened with the case? Why did you seemingly drop it? Insurance settlement? Or maybe a big score at hard rock within days of the incident? No longer needed to carry on with the extortion charade with the dealership now that you had money in your pocket? In regards to "idiot" people questioning whether you had anything to do with your own car disappearance, who calls a dealership from another state and asks if "his car is still there", unless "he" knows it's already been stolen by someone who you gave the spare key to? Even this reporter (who must also be an idiot) finds the whole situation obscenely ridiculous.

"Even stranger is Robbins’ statement saying he called the dealership before returning to Florida to “make sure my car was there.” While it wouldn’t be unusual to call to ask if the car was fixed, calling to make sure it was still at the dealership seems pretty odd."

Excellent observation George. This reminds of that screwball @Slayabides. These guys who can't control their emotions or behaviors always get themselves into these situations and blame others for their own doings. Slay is banned for life from the WSOP and maybe that's what little angry 🐦 scotty bobbins needs. A simple apology, a simple explanation and this whole situation should've been averted. Of course, when you're a narcissistic lunatic I suppose mayhem and chaos are inevitable. And probably even welcomed. I'm sure he's loving all of this attention.

IIRC Hellmuth even topped that one. He berated a dealer for a bad beat on the previous hand and the dealer responded:

“I just sat down”

As best I can understand from the article this was an online tournament, you had to be physically in somewhere in NJ to play, and you were barred just from the Borgata property. Were you not permitted to play from anywhere else in NJ? If Borgata allowed you to play from another location I don’t see how you’ll be able to claim that they owe you your entry fee back.

As for suing for lost future earnings - Borgata and every other casino bar people because of their past actions and you’ve admitted to what you said. Even if they misinterpreted your meaning they’ve got grounds to bar you and they have pretty broad legal rights to do it. It sucks but it happens.

how many pros can honestly say this about their tire career? not many I bet.

imagine if card counters sued for future winnings because casinos barred them.

His claim seems a little flat.

The road to Hell is paved with bad jokes, guys. If you learned nothing else from this thread you should have learned that.

Alright, we should pump the brakes on the puns.

This is interesting. Take back some of what I said since it seems docs did not put him in psych ward, just a hold. Discrimination because of that could fall under ADA discrimination and if his actions did not warrant a lifetime ban i don’t see why borgata wouldn’t be liable. How much is what’s questionable. I’m surprised they wouldn’t want to settle this before it hit the news. Edit 2.0: i guess some of the claims for damages are exaggerated and stating it impacted him in a different lead would be more likely to win
