Joe Sebok tries to blackmail/intimidate me into leaving UB alone on twitter - Page 3 - Poker News

Joe got his instant street cred from Barry. So yes at some point Barry needs to slap that stupid kid of his across the head and tell him to wake the **** up or risk losing his own cred

The way I'm reading the tweet doesn't sound like intimidation or blackmail at all. It sounds like he is asking you to chill out on the hate and then wants you to sympathize with his position and his company by asking in effect, "don't you have any skeletons in your closet that you wouldn't want revealed?" Sebok is right that you do need to chill out.

I guarantee when Barry sees this, he is gonna go OFF on Sebok.

What a douche bag. "General Sebok" has turned to blackmail.

Sounds like a random dumb drunk text to me, rather than something sinister.

Still, UB sucks.

Good work Joe! Trying to defend UB by saying that? now you make yourself and UB look even worse. Very professional!! Seems like maybe UB has made another mistake by hiring you to rep the site.

Maybe you should stick to the drumming, poker is not for everyone

Is he Barry's adopted son?

If not why is his name Sebok and not Greenstien.

Sebok is the Brian Christopher of the poker world.

Twisted by the Dark Side, young Seebok has become. The man we respected, gone he is… Consumed by UB.

Well thought was OK.

UB will die if those robbed actually bother to sue them/approach the authorities.

Wonder when Joe Sebok with his $30k a month makes more out of UB than Russ Hamilton.
