Jedi, calling you a moron is putting it lightly.
You don't call this disrepectful
"""I have really tried to be respectful and polite with EDDtown despite his repeated delusional rantings, but I am just about out of patience. He swears that he is done posting in this thread several times, but just keeps pulling an Energizer Bunny on us. He keeps on going with his drivel about online poker being rigged against him, about him having the highest final table percentage of anyone with 100 tournaments played (Gabe, can you please tell us where you got that statistic? Who is second in that category?), about him being an 80+% favorite over any online player, about how the top players in the world all play in his home casino, about how casinos cheat with infrared lasers, about how his challenges were figurative and not literal, about his having won millions of dollars playing poker full-time (but not having more than 40K to play for), and many more such absurd conspiracy theories.
He said many times that he would play any online player any time. Yet when I challenged him, he took days to respond (and then obviously did so only to save face). Then he said that he would respond to me within a day with the logistics of the match. He took ten days and only did so because of the heat he was getting on the thread. Then he claimed that he was done with the thread and would contact me on PM. He never contacted me on PM until I posted in the thread that he had not. I responded immediately and suggested a date. He did respond fairly quickly with a response to my proposed date - but when I then pm'd back with regards to an escrow, he did not respond. I've since sent him two more pms asking if he could find a couple of people to vouch for anyone he would want to escrow with - or if he would accept my choice of person who would escrow for 0% vig. Once again, he has not responded.
In the meantime, while being too busy "watching the market" to respond to me, he has posted many times in this thread (after saying he was done posting on here) to defend his claim that online poker is rigged against him. I mean after all, he lost with AA against 33! How could that ever be possible?
I am sick and tired of wasting my time with this pathetic excuse of a man. First he boasts and challenges. Then he backs down from the challenge, claiming that it was a figurative challenge. Then he accepts to save face, but tries to say he can't play for more than a certain amount (clearly expecting me to refuse). When I agree, he delays and finds every tactic that he can find to avoid playing me while trying to lose minimal face in the thread.
Gabe, you have made a mockery of yourself. There is no avoiding the fact that you are a tin-hat wearing lunatic who will never be any more than comic relief: a laughingstock in the poker world who can't write a single sentence without a spelling or grammatical error. At the very least, you could have maintained your integrity and self-respect by following through with your ill-advised challenge when I accepted it. I for one, actually believed in your integrity despite your obvious lunacy. Obviously, I was wrong to do so.
Answer my PM in clear unambiguous terms if you intend to go through with the match. I won't hold my breath. """
