adam and devo are both friends of mine and have been for quite some time, they don't deserve to be mentioned in a thread about negative behavior by UB pros

funny that he references you and "your boys", i personally think my "boys" are extremely well respected and talented poker players and also have nothing to do with this

Joe bringing MY GIRLFRIEND into this disgusting matter is the worst part of all of this, i'm sure some of you here can understand the intense anger one would feel at someone as scummy as sebok referencing my girlfriend whom he has never met.
Ya I agree man. Him bringing your gf into it was enough in itself. Guy needs to get his ass kicked

also, lol@calling you names now. He has some serious nerve

Sebok is right that you do need to chill out.
At first I also thought something along these lines, but I think when he clarifies with "and your girlfriend" it seems like he is referring to a specific skeleton of some sort rather than speaking in general.

whatever i find this all kind of weird. don't get me wrong, UB are f'ing thieves and that site deserves to go down in flames.


but this whole blackmail thing makes no sense. 1. sebok is blackmailing without any dirt? it's so illogical it makes me think it's a weird joke 2. you say what he's done is borderline illegal.. even though he's not actually blackmailing you because the key component to blackmail is you are threatening to unveil true information. so what exactly is borderline illegal then? 3. you demand a public apology on an issue that wasn't public whatsoever (wtf??) and that you could have handled off the record (or privately through legal channels if it was real blackmail). asking for a public apology makes it seem to me like you just want attention.. and obviously since it is a sebok/ub issue you knew you would have 2p2 support no matter how nonsensical asking for a public apology is


as for sebok.. yea he a complete tool, but he's just a nobody who sold out and we need to start a thread every other week just destroying the guy. he's a freaking lackey for the real enemy.. just a PR guy doing what his boss tells him (and i'm sure they lie(d) to him too a/b what info he'd be privy to fwiw). loser? yes. criminal like his employers? no. we should stop giving him so much attention

In what jurisdiction should they do that? You really think this hasn't occurred to anyone else before?

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA A MAN, Joe, doesn't sell his soul and sell his father's hard earned reputation.

Joe's looking worse by the minute......whether he was acting on UB's behalf is a moot point. He is a UB rep and should know his actions reflect on the site he represents.

Everyone needs to get the sand out of their vagina's, this really isn't a big deal at all.

Why is it grown men can resort to acting like babies over virtually anything?
03-15-2011 , 08:46 PM
Were he not implying a threat, it would still be super scummy for him to DM someone telling them to stop legitimately criticizing his company because everybody's got some skeletons closet. The fact that he mentioned OP's girlfriend sure makes it sound like he's talking about something specific, though.

And, seriously, get your facts straight, OP! Joe's doing something super scummy to defend his company; he's not doing something super scummy on behalf of his company! This whole thread is based on a lie!

You should hang with Joe Sebok, you both seem equally classy.
03-15-2011 , 08:48 PM
I think Sebok banged your girlfriend. You should talk to her.

True.The O.P should keep his mouth shut and not post this.

Joe is now representing the company and so all things in the past should be forgotten and we should really praise UB for hiring such a cool guy. So what if UB was the site responsible for a hole card revealing cheat scandal and ripped off people for millions. What's the real harm in that?

Joe is fine as a representative and posting back with a threatening tone is fine. we should just all re-think our opinions about what he said here and that we all must have skeletons in the closet so how would we like it if they were revealed? god knows everyone forgot about the UB scandal, at least until now.

It's a shame that the O.P had to make this public. Please, apologize to Joe for us all, we are sorry for our tone's in the replies here, I'm sure you can go buy him a beer tonight to cheer him up

I always wondered, how much does ub pay people? You should know the answer to this question.

.
the best part of this text is :

"so much for trying to talk to you like a man privately".

he has a really serious problem if he considers blackmailing and gossip as attributes of a "real man" behaviour
