Eli always came off as scumbag type....

Apart from COMPLETELY letting himself go, I thought Benyamine was just a total degen. Is he welching on loans too?

Honestly, can't believe how him and degenmine are walking around. He's a liar,cheater and scumbag that's robbed millions from players.
Eli also borrowed and robbed full tilt of millions of the players money. Eli has no remorse or conscious or morals. He was never a big businessman like he lies about.. Robbed people then too. He owned a photoshop booth and blackmailed purverts over their pictures.
He robbed some mobster guy in NYC and had to sell his house tp pay him but, lied to mobster and took out other loan on house. He robbed small middle class players in small casinos to pay mobster back. He would ask for 5 k loans in small casinos. Can't believe that fanboys and these players would give him that. but, they did. Sad and sick.
Glad Sean Deeb did what he did . Future victims might know about him now. It may not be as easy.
F u Eli scumbag
Preach!!!!!!!!

sometimes in the games of poker, players are not what they really are

I believe in the podcast with Deeb he and the host say if you loan someone you're basically giving it away and don't expect it back outside of a very few trusted friends. Going off memory. It didn't sounds like they thought it was plus EV

Maybe it's not +EV to get money back from Eli, but at least you get a rep for outing deadbeats, so maybe it's +EV against others. At some point you have to figure that your EV is pretty much 0 anyway, so may as well get something out of it rather than suck it up until one of you dies.

Those old FT guys can probably get Deeb into some good games so I think lending Eli money could def be +EV sometimes.

Privateworld mentioned that a BB regular's wife beat the **** out of Eli's wife and now Eli's wife wont go back to the room.

I'm assuming the regular and his wife did not get banned from the room for this altercation? Is this a well known player? I would imagine its someone with some clout if he and/or his wife didnt get banned?

I'm just curious.

Lucky for Eli the mobster is in prison for 5 years but, that doesn't matter. Eli just out robbing from Peter to pay Paul. His wife is in on the scams with him. She is pure evil. Laughing about people they robbed. Buying rolexs for all her kids and taking pics and posting them for the victims to see. Saying players deserved to be robbed.
Players wife fromBobbys room grabbed her from the neck and beat her head in ground. She did not press charges and got scared. Haven't seen her since in bellagio.
Eli bragged and laughed about all his death threats..said everyone wants to kill me but, no one ever does.lol
He's scum and will get it one day.
She plays at Bellagio every single day in the 20-40 limit game.

soooooo are you calling yourself scum? just like every other profession in the world there are good people and bad people in it. the negatives always get talked about because people rarely have a reason to go around shouting from the rooftops about all the positive interactions with people they have. there are plenty of really nice/solid/trustworthy people that are poker players.

eli and viff got into a big hand early on and eli, bluffing with king high, bet about $47k on the river into pot of $48k. viffer folded and was embarrassed because he was pretty sure eli bluffed him, but he wasnt 100% sure...after the hand eli says, to nobody in particular, "i was gonna be stuck if he called my bluff over there. it would be a good game." then, howard starts saying "you know he wasnt bluffing now, he wouldnt say that"

so now viffer pulls this multi level scumbag angle so he can figure out the truth. he says "ill bet $10k he had me beat". viffer has ZERO intention of paying off the bet here if hes wrong because his plan is to lie about his hand multiple times after eli accepts the bet and tells the table his hand... hes just making the proposition because depending on what elis response is he would be able to tell instantly if eli bluffed or not.

eli snap accepts and says "ok i lay 2 to 1 on $10k. you said you had deuces, right?" (apparently viffer said this after the hand but it was cut as it isnt heard on camera. they probably edited out a few seconds of the conversation during the commercial break/cut away)....

the exact conversation after the $10k bet is proposed by viffer goes...

eli: "alright, i lay 2 to 1 on the ten thousand"
viffer: "you got a bet"
eli: "you said you had deuces, you cant be lying right?"
viffer: "im not lying"
eli: "alright then, its a bet"
viffer: "then i owe you ten thousand..."
eli: "i had king seven offsuit"

(the board was 6s 4c Jc 3h Qs for those who didnt see the clip...viffer had Kc3c for a pair of threes...phil laak starts shouting to eli 'youre so sick, youre so sick!' and gives eli a shoulder rub. the entire table is pretty thrilled to hear about the bluff. this clearly makes viff sick to his stomach)

eli: "i made ten thousand. i didnt know i was gonna make ten thousand from that but now the game is good"
howard (to viffer): "and you really had deuces?"
viffer: "no. i didnt say what i had"

(first angle from viffer. he had already stated he had deuces, after which eli asked him, as quoted above, if that was true. viffer confirmed)

eli: "then you had a pair obviously...or ace high?"
howard: "he had deuces beat anyway"
viffer: "i didnt have deuces either...i had seven eight"

(now the second angle from viffer. first says he has deuces, confirms it to the table. makes the bet, then once is told the truth from eli he lies AGAIN saying that he had 8 high)

eli: "well, then, you didnt have a pair you mean?"
viffer: "i guess you lose"
eli: "no, you said you had deuces. thats a bet...that was the bet"
viffer: "i said the bet was that you had me beat"
eli: "i wouldnt throw $20k if you wouldnt have said deuces..."
viffer: "i didnt say what i had when we made the bet"

(third angle from viffer! the scumbag is strong with this one)

eli: "theres no bet now. obviously theres no bet"
viffer: "oh theres no bet?"
eli: "i didnt lie, i told you what i had. you said you had deuces"
viffer: "we never said we were on the honor system....so you only bet because you knew you had me beat? ...you only bet if i lose. as soon i tell you what i have you said 'oh its no bet because i thought you had something else'".
eli: "obviously, because you said you had deuces...."

(now eli realizes what viffer has done)

eli: "you got the information you wanted to get for free now, because you dont want to pay the ten thousand..."


then howard, in a strong display of irony, starts discussing the ethics of the bet and whether both eli and viffer were angling each other to some degree when they both made the bet. that might have been the funniest part of all. yes, eli only made the bet because he thought viffer was telling the truth about his hand, thus making it an automatic win for eli. however, this isnt an angle or unethical. he was simply (so he thought) taking advantage of what he saw as a poor bet by viffer. he also might have seen viffer offer players freerolls in the past for showing hands of a certain value...(ie: viffer thinks a player is bluffing after a hand, and says "ill give you $5k if you can show me anything better than ace high) so eli wasnt in the wrong for making the bet....ultimately viffer angled eli really hard just to figure out whether or not he got bluffed in a $100k pot. instead of just waiting for the show to air, he lies about 5 times in the span of 3 minutes, welches on a 5 figure bet, and makes himself look like a complete jackass to every poker player in the world. moral of the story here? DO NOT TRUST THIS MAN:

Always thought blue hair was sooo distinguished looking, and you say Do not trust this man! You have successfully turned a hitherto fan boy of the 'Blue hair set' into a "I'm so confused"

Fine looking example of a man too.

Just got home from the Rio and Eli was playing 150-300 Omaha 8 or better with a half kill in the Rio cash games. Billy Gazes was playing also.

I mean, I am no peach to play with but Opie takes it to another whole level. He has made me quit a game. He is the definition of #unbearable. He takes pride in it.
can you elaborate on what he does to make things so unbearable?

Btw, anyone see Benyamine's girl for hire at the Series - the one who had bags of food for him on the rail?

I saw Benyamine with a skinny Italian looking attractive brunette a couple times at Bellagio. He made it a point to hold her hand every time she came to fetch him from Bobby's Room. I overheard him ask once if she bought shoes but assumed those were for her.

She never brought food but I did get a laugh when the room service guys rolled a cart into the main poker room with a huge steak at like 2pm and took it straight to him at his table outside Bobby's Room. Thought it was funny when he had to tell room service was not his...this time

Just watched live stream from November 2016 poker night in America at the Rivers in Pittsburgh. Both Deeb and Eli were playing and seemed friendly. Had some friendly banter and Eli even gave Deeb change for $100. All seemed good between them now.

Deeb, did he pay you back? If yes, did he pay others he owed? Is he now your buddy?

Here's what I think happened: Debb used some of his WSOP winnings to settle with Barry Greenstein regarding their play on the OFC app.

Greenstein, who should have used the money to repay PokerStars for money he owes, opted to use the funds by giving them to his old friend Ted Forrest to help bail him out of his legal woes in Nevada.

Forrest, who should have used the funds to repay his debt owed to the Wynn, opted to use the funds for his retainer to pay his lawyer to fight jail time.

Forrest's lawyer then took the funds and used them in part to buy Eli's mansion at a discount.

Eli then used the mansion's net sales proceeds to settle with Deeb.
