true...just trying to make a point that poker is filled with shady people and always will be.

I mean just yesterday I was thinking to myself after reading some of these posts that there has been a "scandal" almost every month being outed on twitter.

During one of these scandals, people even started attacking Phil Galfond. One of pokers nicest ambassadors. I think it was because he was being "Too nice" in one of this twitter posts. So unreal...

I still have no idea what your point is. Not sure how potentially sitting across the table from an unknown someone who is considered morally objectionable is equivalent to what NV has done / is doing. The reaction to this story is a good example why public outrage is effective. Why are you bothered by this? Isn't sending a message that we will not support a business that is run by a misogynistic douche who uses his position of power / privilege to creep on women a good thing? Nick's actions are indefensible. If your point is we should also shun other poker players / personalities that are also bad people I would agree, but you seem to suggest the opposite (ie if we are not going to condemn other poker personalities we should give Nick a pass).

I think it came out after he was on the show a couple times (two days in a row) and then he was never on the show again. Isn’t that kind of indicating they did care?

Are poker streams supposed to do a criminal background check on everyone they bring on?

No, the point was just the hypocrisy from people like Garret claiming he cares about the character and actions of the people he interacts with.

I mean Garret is complete full of it with his self righteous bullshit but this lucky guy played once or twice. It's extremely likely he had no idea about Lucky's background.

i’ve played on TV a couple times. some games the only person you know is the game runner, some games you know everyone and organise to be streamed. everything else is somewhere in between.

i have no idea where most of the money i won came from

No itÂ’s not because you are both attempting to define an objective moral standard and then apply two subjective elements (creep on women/position of power) to it along with a character assessment (misogynistic douche). This quickly just descends into mob tyranny where the same logic is applied in infinitely variable circumstances according to mob demand.

“Isn’t sending a message that we will not support a business ran by a Samoan hating bigot who uses his position of power to jack up profit margins a good thing?”

“Isn’t sending a message that we won’t tolerate the employment of a classist, elitist, nepobaby as a junior manager by cronyistic corporate paper pushers a good thing?”

“Isn’t sending a message that we will picket and shut down railway building by international, corporate conglomerates on land bought at a discount from underprivileged indigenous communities by leveraging their position of power a good thing?”

This is why I say this is an argument founded in resentment because this argument style is invariably applied to try to transfer one thing from people who have it to other people who donÂ’t.

And you can just string together whatever character attacks plus subjective rationale you want and if you can get a big enough mob behind you, which is always something you can just manipulate, demand anything from anyone.

that might be your dumbest post yet in this thread. charlie IASIP levels of logic

This thing bad + this thing bad means other thing good is child logic.

Ok

PugDolk has proven that the rambling incoherence of his posts are a feature not a bug. He is intentionally defecating all over this thread in order to take the spotlight off of Vertucci’s despicable actions, or because he’s a troll who enjoys the attention. In other words, he’s doing it on purpose. I suggest that we all refrain from engaging with him further. He is not convincing anyone of anything so there’s probably no need for any of us to respond to his sewage.

At least NV never let a Euro in beside Kabrhel and thats a pretty well selected one.

nick, since we all know you are reading, I would like to point out that the conversation lasted maybe about a week before people in general are forgetting you ever existed.

further affirmation that you have been meaningless this entire time. nobody misses you dude.

nobody.

People said this to Nolan Dalla to when he Motorboated some 00, Vertucci is insufferable & a HUGE nit...basically no1 wants him anywhere near a Poker Table

The way he treated & talked to Jimmy Butler was definitely something with race...banned him from HCL because he dared to talk down to the little fat midget Vertucci & told him to take his F'N arm & hand off of him! Vertucci wasn't used to any1 actually standing up to him lol

is there somewhere to read laurens story or has she posted something

unironically who is this

They had buttonclickr on the show

But it was to cheat him out of 500k usd, Vertucci American hero

I vaguely remember him. He was kind of a larger/heavier dude and there was some sort of incident with Airball making some comments after busting him. I don't exactly remember, so don't quote me. But how was he cheated?

He got cold decked in a massive hand against HCL family member Nick Airball. Top set vs straight I think. Maybe he just got unlucky.

Never watch this, he was bad mouthing jimmy butler?

He let euro pro Buttonclickr in (most likely to cheat him in some way as he lost big in his single session)

EDIT: I see that this has already been noted by the sages of 2+2

Pretty funny considering last night I got back from my Race, Gender, and Sexuality class to play online poker.

yeah weired.

This is just f.ing surreal

It really is. You need to have a big lack of social intelligence to pick a wedding photo as your christmas card. Its just completely tone deaf.
