Once again, you are all getting your hopes up from a guy that claimed to have inside info last year from a secret source that turned out to be a person impersonating Scott Matusow. The only thing lower than a Matusow source is a person impersonating him. It is very obvious that china is a mentally challenged person and I think we should all stop making fun of him and tell him he's doing a real good job!! Way to go china. Now please stop posting your inside info we get it buddy !!

I hope that he's right..... but someone posted earlier.... you can keep saying this week, no next week, no next week and you are bound to hit it. But he did say he won't post anymore on this site if he is wrong....

I don't care what people like China say anymore. Whether he's right or wrong, it doesn't matter. It's not going to speed anything up or change the outcome in any way. He's not a hero if he's right and just a dick if he's screwing with us, but I don't care about his or anyone else's opinion unless it's PS or the DOJ. No one else should care either.

Obviously he's never going to give you that, he's only 99.9% sure, so he gains nothing by taking that bet.

You could offer him 95:1 though, that's a downright bargain.

It's selling for about 3.50 on every 10 dollars.

just out of sheer curiosity, when is the date that we can feather, tar, and flog China in the e-streets if this turns out to be a troll/if he's wrong?

Attempting to clarify the tweet:

Pocket Kings contacted the party trying to find out how much they owe them. Certain countries had managers that didn't report directly to Pocket Kings and were among the first to be dismissed. This explains why they're going to the source to try and get accurate numbers.

This in my opinion is real news from someone who isnt quoting mystery sources who turn out to be Scott Matusow impostors.

October 14, 2011?

OK for real, last week he said by the end of this week, and then yesterday he said end of this week or early next week. So it's really up to the date that he keeps changing.

This is probably what really happened when he realized done idiot was telling the poker world about bs he was spouting to his stupid followers.

As requested , I got a hold of someone who has strong ethics with this type of stuff and has been around online poker for 10+ years and is also very reputable. He will verify I am not jerking you guys around.

Todd will address this on twitter very shortly if he hasn't already. Sorry I couldn't use your hand Selected wonder reporters cause that's not how I roll. You guys should be smart enough to find the tweet.

Good day
