Thnx @MikkeD

It’s all good tho. I usually post in the strat forums but when I venture over to NVG I expect to be trolled a bit

I agree it’s not the funniest meme now that I get it, but the placement from the first guy was actually decent imo.

Charlie ran top 0.1% through his career. There is no way he beats 9bb rake and solid regs from 3rd world countries grinding 12h/day on 25 zoom...

It is sad to scroll through the comments and see how highly his viewers think of him.
I remember reading one comment where someone referred to him as a ‘top 5 online poker player’
He’s gonna make a lot of money ‘coaching’.

Watching streams on Twitch full time, the classic profession!

He talked so much **** to people who doubted him, him giving up on the challenge at 10nl is pathetic. He deserves to be called out for quitting with no explanation, then proceeding on to advertise his coaching and masterclass.

damn bro i actually watched this and now ive got brain cancer, thx a lot

Charlie’s narcissism really knows no bounds. Blows my mind that he can’t run an overbet bluff or a hero call or whatever without following it up with minutes patting himself on the back and affirming himself as superior to his audience (seriously just ****ing dumb I must say) while occasionally screeching **** gto.

Ego-wise Doug’s 2015 HU #1 spiel has nothing on this kid honestly.

Charlie finally responded to my youtube comment.

Funny he just assumes anyone who posts on his YT page is a losing player who doesn't understand how amazing he is.

Also, kind of weird how this is the second time he has offered to make a bet with my random youtube account. And he just assumes i'm broke, and would need to get a bunch of my buddies together to make a bet worth his while.

Seems like a good guy.

I wish i could play on stars, would love to bumhunt him when he continues the challenge.

Both those assumptions are pretty reasonable, good response from Charlie.

If I were him though I would rather use midstakes online results than high roller MTTs to swing dicks.

I guess i don't like the idea of betting money vs someone i have never met in real life. I think its pretty foolish for him to even offer. How can you trust a random youtube account to pay?

I would lay 5:1 cheeseburger money that he beats 10NL eventually. Maybe my $200 to your $40 if someone reputable agrees to escrow with Stars transfer, but can't expect anyone to want to bother lol.

He even said, "poker isnt a big part of my life right now" in his response.
Why would anyone want coaching from someone like this?
There are plenty of guys actually putting in the work.
He thinks cause he ran good in a few high rollers years ago that he is poker immortality.

He can surely beat low stakes/mid stakes.

He comes across as a douche but his number one negative trait is being insanely cringeworthy, to the point I can't listen or watch the guy for any longer than a minute at a time, that is some talent.

Yea i never said that he couldnt get past 10nl. He asked me if i wanted to bet on that before and i said no, i thought he could. Its really not much of an accomplishment.

The issue was how arrogant he was, then he just stopped the BRC with no explanation. If he actually gave an explanation, he would have linked it like i asked him to, not write one up on the spot.

What time frame on the bet? It would have to be by date and not by playing time. I would bet that in X mths from now he hasn't made it to 10k where X is up for debate.

He's not worried if he can beat NL10, but I know a lot of people are!

Hint: they regularly post in this thread :P

Yeah i would too but i dont think hes actually serious about the bet, even though he said it to me 4 times. Seems like another one of his defense mechanisms, you call him out and instead of responding to what you said, he says, 'wanna bet?' knowing that its not feasible to bet any substantial amount of money with strangers in a youtube chat.
