Same person.

Not to take away from the Matt Glantz meltdown, but Eli was in Golani Brigade.
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golani_Brigade)

"Israeli commando" makes it sound like he was in a top secret Rambo type unit. As you said, all Israelis have to serve in the army. Golani isn't a top secret elite unit. It's an infantry corp like 4 others in the Israeli Army.

Now back to the action.

To be clear I only asked Glantz because that's how he got held hostage on nag or roped in by Deebs podcast. Not because I think he had any involvement.
Funny, 2 old school players Eli owes over a million too never out him.
(And Glantz knows who I'm talking about)

Doyle and Lyle ?

guys stop engaging the ambasatroll

a little off topic but hey why not

Glantz did you a piece of McKeehan in the Main (wp if so)..


=)

Rough estimate of total amount he owes across the board?

Eli still alive isn't he? of course it's not Doyle or Lyle.
Doyle still dines with Eli and is friends

Doyle's motto is " if it ain't done to me, I don't care"

I would guess around 10 million

I understand that there close ,, figured it's only natural that Eli borrows off his rich Texan/ Vegas bff Doyle . If he doesn't owe Doyle a large number then respect to Doyle for saying no !!!! I wonder what % Doyle had of Todd when he felted beal around this time last year .

For the record I played with Matt Glantz at the Borgata $80-160 games downstairs and the Parx mix games about 15 times over the last 15 years and hes been nothing but a gentlemen and enjoyable to have at the table every time.

Poker is 100 times harder supporting a wife and kids and to make it in poker with that situation deserves some definite props and extra credit. Not sure why there was so much hate on him in this thread at times.

Sure you do: Jealousy.

It's nvg, lots of angry haters around. Most reasonable people understand why matt responded to the troll. The whole exchange was pretty interesting though. And I agree, only interacted with Glantz one time at parx but was a very nice/friendly guy and never heard anything different about him from anyone else who's been around him.

Lots of trolling or mob mentality I guess, welcome to the Internet.

Most adjusted folks are probably happy to discover this guy, he seems like a standup dude, and he's another source of insights in the highstakes (or 800/1600 midstakes lol?) community.

The weirdest part to me is that even though PW and him were going at it, they were both basically saying the same thing... scratch the surface of poker and it gets fing ugly.

PW does live in Glantz's back yard i will take a 10k bet on that

O **** son... so Privateworlds post insinuate that Patrick cheated other highstakes players @ chinese poker using some dodgy Russian hack? The hack has already been confirmed so seems possible and means one time 2p2 favorite Patrick is actually a major scumbag.

This thread just confirms my theory that professional poker players are generally scum and incredibly selfish people!

PW is Eli obviously. He's as good at trolling as he is at scamming. These are the skills they teach you in the Israeli special forces so it makes perfect sense.

Don't ink Glants supports his wife and kids off poker f I'm the lifestyle he lives. Lol
He was s Me rich stock wizard before that.

Pw is Bobby just havin fun. Still don't know who Matt glantz is

Wonder how much Eli owed Chip Reese before he passed?

best post in thread

In Belligio ..just heard the news about Abe Mosseris parents died a couple of days ago. Tragic
Bellagio is sending something. We were speaking of him earlier.
Sorry Abe
Best wishes to you

What if he's joe sebock?

I don't follow your reasoning. The hack has been general knowledge for two years so how does that lead you to conclude Patrik Antonius is a scumbag? I am open minded on the subject until there's evidence - I'm not going to jump to conclusions based on one individuals anonymous 2p2 posts

On a side note not related to the moral argument - just a common sense point: There are millions of apps available for SmartPhone & I would suppose 10's of thousands [or more] of those apps are for games meant to be played for fun [for points] & not for cash. These apps have minimal security because they're not designed for cash play. People prepared to play with strangers for $50 a point on these 'fun only' apps are not living in the real world. [Before someone claims otherwise - the above is NOT an endorsement of cheating]

P.S. Something not entirely relevant [but amusing to me] that I noticed four months ago is an interview with Antonius wherein he says he's given up online poker because his edge has gone due to tracker s/ware:

“...Nowadays players use software that gives them so much information and so much data that it has become more of a game of numbers. I never used any of these programs. I‘ve never used technology to get an edge. I’m more of a feel player who’s living in the moment. [...] Software has changed the high-stakes game. If you don’t use poker software it’s not a fair game any more”
