The RJL Virbategate story has been nonstop around here and even when the thread is locked, people try to find workarounds to reviving it for some reason.
Is poker just so boring and mundane to people now and they feel like they need to perpetuate the drama to no end? I realize this is NVG so I should expect it but even at WSOP this year, RJL was at a table near me and everyone was going nuts about it in subtle ways such as quietly talking about her and the drama, trying to take pictures without her noticing, or outright going over to speak with her.
So what is it? Just normal human behavior and it just seems magnified because I’m around it or is it something about the poker world that thrives off this stuff?
LOL... if it wasn't for shill accounts and their socks, here, and moreso on facebook and X, this would have died out long ago. Literally no one who saw the hand has given her a clean bill of health, the narrative so important to team clown-world.
The rest of the logical world just wants to make sure that when sitting at a table with RFID cards and known criminals in the booth getting live data, that they're still gonna get a fair game. I am sure, that beyond clown-world's crazy gaslighting campaign, that that has something to do with it too.
