That's a good thing, because you looked about 170lbs tops and not at all tough. Of course, I'm sure you're a grade-A badass too, who could kick GSP's ass if it weren't for the fact that those octagons have too many sides. Word is, you consider yourself "King of the Parallelogram"

I don't care one way or another. I'm just curious about the principle of the thing.

Albeit not curious enough to post in About the Forums.

I never thought I'd live to see the day where the word parallelogram was used in NVG.

this 5/10/300 game sounds juicyyyyyyy

okay list of hilarious contradictions by Gabe:

1. top live poker players will always be better than online ones unless an online player (durrrr) appears and crushes live players....in this case durrrrr is no longer considered an online player but is now a "hybrid", thus Gabe's initial statement can never be wrong.....love that logic.

2. Casinos use lasers to cheat, so he wouldn't play Samo HU in a casino, yet he plays in casinos every week on his own. make sense?

3. He understands that the variance of HU can be motha, yet he parades his very short term tournament success along as if he is Phil Ivey, and NEVER acknowledges that luck/variance could be ANY part of his success. In fact he says he ran bad in those tournaments he had success in. LOL?

4. When negotiating the match against Samoleous, he brings up his FRIEND John Dolan as a potential escrow, and brings up no issue with it whatsoever. However, when negotiating with Asa Akira (twoShae), he claims they hit a will in negotiations because he does not want to use an escrow. He wants his opponent to just fly to Mississippi and just pray that he (Gabe) is willing to play

5. He claims he is an 80+% favorite over Samo, jungleman, isildur, and ANY online player, yet will not play any of them- he constantly finds ways to back out.

There are many more hilarious contradictions/hypocrisy/irrationality but these are the only ones I got from memory...,

Hey don't use that kind of logic in this thread

Also, he refuses to address any of these logical fallacies....he will only respond to you if you in any way defend him (in which case he considers you a rational poster. biased much?)

Unfortunately Gabe will not defend any of his opinions, which should come to no surprise I guess, because those opinions were all based on absolutely nothing, no proof, facts, logic, or rational thought. Gabe knows he will get destroyed in an actual argument. The only place for this thread to go is if Gabe actually is willing to play an online player in a match (where the player who is a 20% fav to beat Gabe and will FLY TO GABE'S TOWN)--sounds like a good deal for Gabe, but I suspect, similar to his unwillingness to argue with posters that HE KNOWS are smarter than him, he is unwilling to play against players that HE KNOWS are better than him.....he just won't admit it

I am truly sorry. Gabe, if you're reading, I apologize from the bottom of my heart. I know how much logic offends you

You missed my favourite, which was that he knew "within a short time" that online poker was rigged against him, but went on to play "millions of hands" online.

omg such gold, how could I forget that one haha. That's ridiculous on several levels

Bah, I knew I shoulda went rhombus.

I snap-called the use of parallelogram ITT.

I like All Talk's new and unusual definition of the word 'integrity', which means if someone says something mean to you (the best player in the world) at the poker table you must instantly physically attack them like a butthurt kindergartener instead of simply crushing them and taking all their money.

pretty sure the 5-10-300 part is the most hilarious part of the thread. how dumb of us not to understand !

What's even more amazing is who in the world would run their mouth about such a juicy game. Gabe must really think he has a huge edge on any regulars that could read the information about juicy game, have a bankroll for 5, 10, 300, and travel to Mississippi to play. Read: Gabe wouldn't have a massive edge on said person. Maybe that is the point of this thread? Let me see how many idiot 2+2 regs I can get to come play in my 5, 10, 300 game in MS so I can own their souls!

5, 10, 300 ftw!

- equation(i)

If we look closely into Gabe's reasoning, he means to say 2 things.

1. Online poker and Live poker are totally different games, its like online poker is Soccer and live poker is American Football. They both can be called football, but they are obviously not football. - equation(ii)

2. Now since he is favorite over JM, you must be assuming that the following equation is true

Gabe>>JM>>Durrr == Gabe>>Durrr
But, by using the equation(i) & equation(ii), we get the following
Gabe>>Jungleman>>Durrr == Gabe<<Durrr.

Hence we can see that Gabe is not only a great poker player, he is also a world class mathematician who just unknowingly discovered a new theory.



I am sorry, did not read this before posting.
Everyone, feel free to discard my post and move on to the more illogical ones.

EDD- I actually read through most of the patents you reference. If you look at the process flow chart, you'll see that yes, after the cards are discarded, they go through a device that "blanks them out" (erases the previous markings) so that they can be used again to generate "new" cards with different values. And that is done by using new technology and interactive materials.

The new values are determined by the RNG based upon how many decks you program it for. For eg, if you were playing poker, you would use one deck; if you wanted to replicate an 8 deck BJ shoe, you would use the 8 deck program. They idea is for casinos to have reusable "cards" rather than having to buy so many decks.

But once the cards have been erased, and the new value determined, they still have to go to the "printer" device to have the new values put onto the cards. Those cards then could be physically shuffled and dealt in the poker example.

But once the cards have been printed and physically dealt, they cannot be reconfigured into a different value without going through the "erasing" station and back into the printer. So these patents are not for cards where magically poker cards physically change values while on the table or in the deck in the hands of the dealer.

So while the technology sounds strange, it is not as scary as it seems upfront.

But do you also agree that the OP is clearly dodging the challenge by his refusal to escrow? I don't really care much about the live vs. online debate and these lines keep getting blurred more all the time anyway. The funny or sad part about this thread (Pavlov not included) is Gabe coming out with this macho stance and then backing down to a legit challenge, knowing nobody wants to come down to the lovely Missouri, or make that Mississippi, just to get Rheemed.

I think I found out why he has such scary reading skills. Louisiana/Mississippi is a known werepanther stronghold, they can sense fear/confidence.

I like it, keep on him like a pitbull.

I think it's pretty clear at this point that Gabe has gone off the deep end, and its almost to the point where I think we should actually feel kinda bad for him. But I don't think I could ever stop finding his nonsense hilarious, so I'm kinda torn.

I mean 5-10-occasional300 ?? Actually laughed out loud.

This is probably my favorite as well. Delivers on many levels.

Oh no, not facts!

Don't let this slow you down Gabe, just because you're paranoid, doesn't mean they're not out to get you.

I feel like a high-stakes player now in my 1-2-200 game.
