Also seems like a pretty cool guy, but kind of looks weird. A midget with a huge hat and a red nose.
He got it allin pre with AA vs TT vs 77 and held. If that’s the regular lineup that he plays in, i can see him being profitable in poker.

Indeed. Also had a nice win with K3o in a spot where he had good equity yet maintains the crazy image.

This report is more ridiculous, shoddy, incoherent, and self serving than its claims about Bilzerian. Pure click bait.

Not really defending him, seems like he is (was) just doing his thing.

I guess it's an exposure thing / sense of justice since I don't have instagram

I have a mother, wife, daughters, and sisters and none of the above will be hanging out with Dan. This has nothing to do with anything though. A percentage of the female population choses to engage in behavior you find repulsive. In addition they seek to publicize themselves engaged in that behavior. Dan Bilzerian is no threat to any female who hasn't sought him out to engage in what you find repulsive, nor would his disappearance from the scene make an iota of difference in the number who did or were successful in doing so. Maybe you could push for decency legislation to lock these girls up, perhaps burka's are the answer, perhaps ban the internet, HBO, and Hollywood also. I'm sure you wouldn't spend the time and effort to object to Bilzerian on a forum, while paying a content provider to provide same. I seriously doubt white knighting and selective moral grandstanding is going to accomplish anything though.

Yeah so what? They are all consenting adults.

If my momma had them digits maybe she could get me in some sick home games with Blitz, BP, and Paris's Ex.

Oh c'mon, you guys didn't actually think he meant you should be worried that DB is coming for your daughter, sister, or mom, did you? Obviously the point being made is that Dan is making a living/spending other people's money glorifying some pretty obvious misogyny. If you think that's fine, then just say so, rather than disputing the strawman of DB making people do this against their will. No one is arguing that.

yeah. what Bobo said.

Perpetuating and glorifying objectifying of woman is one of the many reasons he is a douche nozzle.

Whether greatbigredone understands this or not, all woman/girls are harmed, including his daughters and mom.

Despite the above 2 posts being very good explanations, I can also understand there is something attractive to this lifestyle for these women as well. they can get a a taste, and then probably abandon it again I suppose.

I never really hold it against women to enjoy freedom and sleep around, or just play the sexy girl, whatever. They can do that, just as men can. And Dan seems to want to 'provide a platform' for these sort of choices. Doesn't make him intelligent or a role model, definitely not.

what you said is true, but we aren't talking about the woman who choose to act as his props. they are adults and free to live their lives how they want.

Convo is more about the impact on all of us through the glorification and perpetuating of the objectification of woman.

I mostly agree with this, with the caveat of the possibility of taking advantage of young women with little/no other means to support themselves. But I have no knowledge of this either way, so it wouldn't be fair of me to assume this is going on.

They already have a platform. Dan gives them a bigger one, I suppose, but I think the downsides are much greater than the upsides. And it's certainly not why he's doing it.

No, but that doesn't mean anyone should dislike him any less for it (not that you're saying they should).

Meh, IDK. This kind of thing has always been around, although of course the edges get pushed more all the time. But there is also a cyclical nature to it. I'm not saying you're wrong, but I also know it's easy to get caught up in the times we're in and assume it's so much worse now than it used to be. I think with things like the #metoo movement, we're making progress in general, even if there are lots of outrageous examples out there. But what do I know, I'm a guy that doesn't have to put up with this crap.

I'm hopeful the pendulum will swing back. We've gone from the Beatles singing "I want to hold your hand" 60 years ago to today's most popular artists singing about explicitly sexual things. I think people are generally less happy living hedonistic lifestyles and our culture seems to be promoting that kind of stuff more and more. I just feel like people are being led down the wrong path by guys like Bilzerian and others.

The women benefit greatly from their relationship with Bilzerian. Society has come a long way from when my mom was forced into retirement from her job as a stewardess simply because she got married. I sure hope we don't regress back to those backwards ass times when the Beatles were singing a melody more well suited for 3rd graders.

Lol @ objectifying women. It's as if you all haven't ever seen the personal Instagram pages of any of these women. They should be allowed to do whatever they want to further themselves and their careers, and shame on any man that wants to tell them otherwise.

Yeah women can go to Nevada and legally prostitute themselves, it's their hot bodies they can do what they want like Cartman. Doesn't make it good and nobody here is telling them they can't do what they want. If they want to stick a needle in their arm that's their choice too. Dan's a bad influence on men and women. He can do whatever he wants, that's whats great about 'Murica. And us jealous losers on the internet can opine about what a pos dan is.

They can be escorts in Vegas illegally. There is nothing wrong with that either. The laws are dated to a time long past when a woman was subservient to her man.

That was not the point, the point is that Bilzerian input into what Lou finds repulsive is mute. He is a reflection of what is, not the cause. Societies have been dealing with this issue forever. It only goes two ways, either a highly restrictive society where it still exists, or an open and free society where is still exists. The reason I argue is that vilifying Dan for what these girls decide to do with their lives is misdirects from actually solving the issue and is pointless white knighting. People need a villain, thus your shrugging off of the Cardi B argument.

Cool. You should probably save that argument for someone suggesting that they shouldn't be.

How is it moot? Just because he's not the cause of it (of course he isn't - something else no one is arguing), doesn't mean he's not part of the problem. And I have no idea what "Cardi B" argument I'm shrugging off - Rick used her as an example of "our culture is going right in the toilet", and I simply said that it could be cyclical/may not be quite as bad as it seems. I even said "I'm not saying you're wrong".

You guys seem to be really focused on the women themselves, and their choices. The issues people have with Bilzerian and misogyny have to do with the way he cultivates this image of how he's constantly surrounded by women, they're just with him for the money, he just has them around as eye candy and for sex, calls them bitches and "hoes". He's related a story about kicking a prostitute, there was the incident in Miami, and the one with him throwing a woman off a roof into a pool. I'm not suggesting for a minute that either he or the women who go along with this willingly need to be stopped. No one's doing anything illegal. But...it shouldn't be surprising that people are critical of it. And he probably doesn't even mind - we're here talking about him. The notoriety gets him a little more publicity.

Is he single-handedly keeping misogyny or the objectification of women alive? Of course not. But he sure as hell isn't helping. And he doesn't have to, of course. But what you're seeing here is the criticism that his image leads to.

The woman broke her foot in the pool toss because she made a mistake. Mistakes happen and when you're living life to the best of your ability sometimes there are consequences. None of you armchair quarterbacks behind a screen have ever broken your foot because you choose to live your life outside of the fire. Bilzerian and the women around him are literally having the time of their lives and to criticize them for doing so is just so LoL.
