Thanks for posting Bryan!
You make a lot of valid points about why you wouldnÂ’t cheat with that hand. Below are some random thoughts.
- The way GMAN over bluffs you could just wait for a good hand and nail him on the river. It didnÂ’t seem like Robbi was doing this at all. It almost seemed like the opposite where she wanted to call him with a crap hand.
-If you took 15k it was a huge screw up and hopefully you suffered enough that you wonÂ’t try anything like this again.
-Just because you werenÂ’t involved doesnÂ’t mean cheating was not going on. RIP staked Robbi for a full buy in which is totally strange. He could have thought she had something special, who knows.
-There is a lot of variance in poker. A donkey can win 3 sessions in a row by making bad calls. ThatÂ’s why pros make money in the long run.
- it sounds like hustler needs to do a better job with their security and vetting their players and employees. The is not a 1/2 NL they are playing. RIP and Robbie should not have been playing in the same game if he had a 100 percent stake in her.
- Letting certain players pick their seat is wrong! Again this is not a 1/2 game they are playing. If a player know exactly where he is going to sit each time they can rig something up to gain an advantage. The seating should be determined right before play starts, randomly.
- When there is money involved there will always be that person that tries to cheat the system. No one should have access to the players hold cards while the hand is active. Never mind a control room full of people.
- I know certain questions you canÂ’t answer due to possible future legal action, but I do appreciate you posting and hope everything turns out well for you.
- And for Doug Polk calling you out he should give you a free lifetime membership to UPSWING poker content.
