A brain goes for a bit more, but you'll prob come up short in that department with him.

Lol

Stor masturbating and start read the bible. Jesus got time for you!!

Actually you'd be getting one that has never been used.

Sure it does, if you are willing to settle for a pound of flesh instead of a bag of money.

This isn't really true but that's what suckers think and that's why they get scammed and let it go...but you go ahead and keep on believing this.

Read the thread and this is what I keep coming back to. This is where most peoples sympathy turns into apathy. You judged someone's character based on when things were going extremely well for them and ingnored it when things were not so rosy.

A person's true character is defined by adversity.

But hey at least you were in the ponzi scheme from the beginning. Congrats on being up 10k from your dealings with him.

genuinely wouldn't be surprised if jstclck is still in contact with shak / shak is playing on his account considering how much effort he went through in insulting (calling people idiots/ telling them to kill themselves etc.) on places like pocketfives and reddit defending shak up until this thread was made while from what it sounds like getting coached and working with shak closely.

just speculation though, either way jstclck seems like a joke of a person.

this guy was absolutely horrendous at poker and I looked forward to anytime that spewtard was at my tables.

I once watched him spew like 2 grand at a 1/2 game trying to slow roll this Chinese guy who's notorious for slowrolling, but he never actually got to lol

You appear to have a habit of telling lies sir

if you can point out one single lie I have stated about my life I will paypal you 5 thousand dollars immediately.

Point it out, prove they are lies,.....or really, get a life.

Gawd, just cause 99% of this site had soft cushy lives doesnt negate the **** that happened in my life.

You said "the Canadian justice system is a joke, although for me that joke was a blessing"

You stated that as a fact and it was about your life. While it may be your opinion that the Canadian justice system is a joke, it isn't one literally. Therefor you lied. Can I have my 5k now? Or you just running your mouth on the Internet trying to look baller?

I wouldn't bother tbh he has turned out to be a complete joke and his definition of intimidation is pm'ing pics of his old ass to kids on the internet and trying to tell them how tough his geriatric ass is.

If shak is a women send peeweeple as he has openly admitted to beating women in the past, not just admitted but has openly bragged about it and is proud of the fact. He might actually intimidate a women too I guess but probably not a man.

But hey if you think this desirable skills will help you to get paid go for it.

This is pretty much all he is good for and even then its not really that entertaining or baller.

Hey guys update, Shak has been cleared of all charges however he has declared bankruptcy and no one will be getting paid back.

Proof/documentation???

I don't understand how this would change anything

Hahah exactly!

why can't you just meet this guy in person and beat him up, it's infuriating reading these stories. I mean people are obviously never going to get paid by the sounds of it.

I don't think i will ever be in a position in poker to be in a situation like this with money however i would like to think that i would take reasonable action if i was.

A) it's illegal and b) nobody seems to know where he is otherwise they'd be doing more about it. It's not like he's showing up to random live events right now.

Staying angry enough to physically attack someone for weeks or months is not easy. If you catch someone stealing from you while they are right in front of you, a physical confrontation is plausible, sure.

Finding out a guy scammed you long after the fact, you see him 6 months later, and then walking up and actually attacking him is completely different. It is the kind of thing lots of people think they would do but it is much harder than they think. Even ignoring the legal aspect (which is not trivial) do you really think walking up to a guy and punching him in the face out of the blue is something you can do?

Yes

I've seen a lot of threads about people getting taken for their money, but this one is consistently the most upset about it. Not saying anything bad about you guys, just taken back by how much more passionate people are about him.

Am I just confused?

Either way, this guy was a huge dick on reddit and anywhere else he existed.

He just screwed a lot of people, so the thread has a lot more traction.

He almost got me as well. I lent him 4k the first time I ever met him in Montreal after he had bought 10% of me in the WPT. He told me he'd pay me the next day and that he wanted to play PLO... he didn't pay the next day. I figured he was just being a lazy poker player, so whatever. It came down to the day I was supposed to fly back to Toronto and I still hadn't heard from him. So I texted him and he kept randomly asking when my flight was leaving, and telling me that I could just go home and he'd etransfer me. The guy had won the Sunday Million and the LAPT, so most people probably trusted him... like I did to lend him the 4k in the first place. Anyways, it felt too strange to me, so I told him I wasnt getting on my plane until I got my money. So I drove back to Playground (the casino) and confronted him. He went and talked to someone and came back with my money.

Like Im sure he did with many people, he would try to sell me action after that to other people's tournament packages and say that he was getting a lower markup because he was buying up all the equity they were selling. But a lot of times it would be to guys playing stuff in like Brazil where its hard to find updates. And he'd ask me not to contact the player and that if I had any questions I should just speak directly with him.

I got lucky because I was more aggressive with him and was in a position to actually be standing in front him. But unfortunately most people didnt deal with him face to face all the time. Im betting quiet and passive individuals probably got screwed the hardest and for the largest amounts.

Looking back now it seems stupid to lend someone money that you dont know, but he was friends with a ton of people in the community, and he had some decent scores under his belt, so he was the last guy you'd think was going to screw you. It confused me though because I played both 5/10 with him and at WPTDS in Calgary and thought he was a terrible player in both formats.

And yet this guy and virtually every other scammer we see on 2+2 still walk around in a blissfully unpunched existence.

Is it harder than it seems or do they all just run super hot at avoiding internet seal team 6? Guess we'll never know.

lolllllllllllllllll
