No one knows or remembers them, the unwashed masses just want to know how much is "up top".
agree.

Part 1 is correct.

To sum it up....you are a half correct piece of sh*t

too much joe hate ITT. granted he doesn't appear to be the most likable human, but those are his choices and unless you are his mama, who are you all to judge HIS life decisions.

lol at WSOP having any control over what he does. Can't wait to see what he wears if/when he comes out for shuffle and deal announcement for Nov 9. does he sell out and put on some khaki's or go with the sweat pants ? grocery store clerk outfit would be epic and ultimate troll of all of you.

Joe owes nothing to poker world, twitter world or any other world. it's his prerogative (insert bobby brown video)

haters ITT will never EVER win the main. all Joe has to do is take a shower, start tipping , and he's good to go.

finally and most importantly, OP needs to get over wife snub. let go of your anger, it will set you free

Keep crushing souls Big Joe World Champ!


I love how when some non egotistical poker player wins the Main Event, all the egotistical self-righteous think they are world crushers (lol), come out crying how he is no good and OMG its the death of the game. Unbelievable some of you running your gums. And hate to break it to you all, but he is sorta the embodiment of what people think of when they think poker players. Because it's true. Only in your little 2+2 fantasyland, do you al think things are, or I should say HAVE to be one way. The hoodie wearing, headphone wearing, snoozer at the table.


Joe McKeehan winning was the greatest thing bc he definately is what poker rooms are full of out there, real people. Not some fake trying to MAX capitalize on your 15 minutes of fame liek a fake Capitalistic pig. And something tells me for as much as you all dawg McKeehan hes gonna be around lots longer than some of the ex 'Main Eventers who like tards went and fired off all there winnings via online sites, trying to be some 'online legends' and ended up BROKE and husled!


Joe McKeehan ftw, and id block 95% of all you all too fwiw. Literally so many cry babies, who think they know everything in the 'online poker world. And so many of you are only book smart and literally are STREET STUPID. Maybe you should take notes about how Big Joe World Champ is doing things. You dont see all them egotistical ex Main Event Champs crushing do you????


Where is NVGs Main Event heroes like Joe Cada, whats he won recently. Wheres Pete Eastgate LOL, Greg Merson, Ryan Reiss and the list goes on and on. So the ones you all seem to want can very easily have cases made against them and how savory a 'Main Event Champ' they arent!


lol online poker players... The biggest egos and littlest brains!


(And most you all would sell your souls for a little grub steak or to be 'friends' with the LOL 'cool kids' in poker so imo so save it!)

Btw I would prefer as winner Joe rather than most of the pros. Some people who spend all life in big cities or large urban areas are kind like real zombies, and they don't realize that something is wrong with them, even when they shower. Joe looks average but normal guy.

How is this good for poker and more importantly why aren't the higher ups that run the World Series doing anything?

Again think about it, in an age that most high profile poker players tweet regularly, our main event 'champion' blocks his account!! Just disgraceful and embarrassing.

Thoughts?
McKeehen > Ronaldo

And wtf, it's his Twitter account. He can do whatever he wants to do with it. Maybe you should complain to Twitter.

And pokerwise he's a solid player imo.

Jamie Gold literally screwed over his backers no? Guy is less trustworthy than tbabs. I don't really give a **** if I can follow someone's twitter feed or not. If someone doesn't smell absolutely fresh I can give him a pass too. Usually people who don't shower regularly have their own issues (I assume).

If you tip every waitress that brings you a drink, you are a sucker.

If you never tip a waitress, then you are a jerk.

It's supposed to be for good service, and it's supposed to be optional. If the waitress brings you the wrong drink or forgets to bring your drink and you have to remind her, she doesn't deserve a tip.

you find the balance

probably something to do with how many hands a year and/or avg. pot size but differs from person to person. If you are a sucker, you can so easily tip them WAY too much of your hard earned cash, probably...

i'm torn on that one, but ive one thing you never listen to the dealers they'll literally convince you choppin a nice huge piece but of all that effort you put in to win is the right thing. Yet they dont know your everyday week/month/year routine.

So imo dealers for a player, literally, not even close last one you ever want to take advice on about tipping them. Unless maybe you're sleeping together or something. win 10 thousands hands a year then add all the "you wanna chop the blinds" (FL dawg track type stuff) and it adds up quick. A 'pro', playing likely 25k plus pots a year live, then have the cocktail waitress/drink peoples (skin in the game) parking, gass, tolls, w.e.....

Guy is the biggest luckbox I have ever had the non-pleasure of playing with. Hits 1 and 2 outers like he is the prohibitive favorite. Countless examples.

Oh and him dissing my wife was just 1 example. Hated him long before that incident. Plus word is he cheated a few guys who took pieces of him. Look, the guy needs counseling, lots of it but obviously will not happen.

So you hated him before all of this

your wife is mad at you because Joe McKeehan became the World Champ, possibly the guy you thought you were so much cooler than. And now you look like a fool because Big Joe World Champ has all the attention.

This guys wifes about to leave him because Joe McKeehan won the World Series of Poker Main Event. While years ago, this guy was 100% dissing him. Funny how fate plays out.

This is a good point i tend to tip too often for ****ty service, and not enough for good service.

However, from what I gather this is off topic. This thread is about some donkament luckbox poker player: his personal hygiene (based on limited sample size I'd presume), his lack of social media presenence, and yes, tipping!

If you share space with others, keep up your hygiene. Shower and brush your teeth. If you don't share space with others, do whatever youd like.

Not tipping is pretty absurd. Not as absurd as low wages that make tips crucial in many jobs, but still pretty low if hes really not tipping.

All the other stuff OP is upset with doesnt matter.
