Marsha Waggoner hates black people. - Page 3 - Poker News

There is a 20-stone Eastern European guy who's a regular at the poker club I used to go to who is known to own a nearby strip club, and who knows what else he's into behind the scenes. He is very loud, sometimes very rude at the tables, trying to crush and bully people he doesn't like. He always has other guys with him lurking in the background. He drops a lot of money, so it's a running joke that if you spend £20 on a lapdance at his club, £19.50 goes to him to feed his poker losses. Now, if (taking my life into my own hands) I was to jibe him at the tables with "I know you make all your money from strippers anyway", would I be being "racist" because he happens to be from Eastern Europe?

Same situation as in the OP.

Confirmation that this guy was/is indeed a drug dealer ends all doubts. Blind statements in fits of anger against a certain race or w/e is the definition of prejudice.

Once again, if it's funny then it's not racist. All you need to know.

This guy couldve easily been a professional athlete! C'mon folks. Ok J/K....really. What a rude thing to say. Sounds like the guy was being pretty cool about it too. He shoulda told her to go home and wash the dishes.

I think whoever mad ethe Kenna James reference has a mugh more interesting question.... How did these two ever get together and then marry? She seems 15-20 years his senior and I can't even see her be attractive in her early years. I have played with her and she is generally friendly and tactful. I doubt she is racist but what does Kenna see in her?

What does "looking" like a drug dealer entail? Being black? wearing jewelry? I think your way out of line on this one, along with the woman who said it.

Isn't it basically the look Sammy Farha works on?

It is unreal how ignorant some people can be. And I'm not just talking about her. "Did he LOOK like a drug dealer"- what exactly does a drug dealer look like? "Young gangbangers.... where do you think they got the money" Did you ask them to pull over and confirm for you that they are in fact, gang bangers? If not, you don't know what or who they are and where they got the money to afford their cars.

Umm excuse me sir, but my friend and I from 2+2 were curious as to how you and your essays came up with the money to purchase the hydrolics for that lowrider of yours. In my estimation, it is believed to have been funded in part by the sale of illegal substance. Can you please confirm? Thank you for your time, and drive safely.

Dude Jim I've defended you in the past, but sometimes you don't make it easy man. Just give me hands from high stakes games you are railing that I don't have time to watch and just want the cliff notes. Mmmkay, thanks.

Why is it racist to call someone, who looks like a drug dealer, a drug dealer?

She might know he's a drug dealer, but you took it as rascist because he is black.

This weekend I played some live poker in L.A. I was playing in a pretty soft $25-$50 limit game when Marsha Waggoner came to my table. The very first hand she plays she's involved in a big multi-way pot where one player is all in and three players are still betting. At showdown the lone African-American Player at the table shows a full-house to take down the pot. Marsha is exasperated, I guess because she feels the cards did her wrong, she gives this black guy next to her the stink eye and then tells the rest of the table "I just hope he keeps that up".

The very next hand her and this same black guy are heads up when an innocuous looking card hits the board, Marsha then flashed one of her hole cards to the guy and said "You probally need this for your inside strait." The black guy said "no, that doesn't help me." and proceeded to raise. On the river instead of calling the black guys bet or folding she threw her cards into his unprotected hand in disgust.

A few hands later, Marsha made a very fishy raise. It seemed that her intention was to call a bet but after a few players behind her folded, she threw in some more chips and said that it was a raise. The black guy who was last to act in the hand called her for a string raise. Marsha threw up her hands and said "sure, fine, you can call me on a string raise, that's okay... but what difference does it make to you, you're playing with drug money anyway." The dealer made her take her raise back. Marsha threw her cards at the dealer (who was also black) racked up her chips and left the table.

What every happened to the good old days, when people we didn't like were "commies"?

what does a drug dealer look like? ive known quite a few in my time and they really dont resemble each other at all. i think you think a drug dealer looks like a flashy black guy with a couple of chains and saggy jeans

Jimbo, you're doing an awful job at making a great point.

I'll sort it out tomorrow if it hasn't already been.

Larger problem: Marsha Waggoner is consorting with known drug dealers. Even the appearance of impropriety shouldn't be tolerated. Put down the pipe, Marsha. Embrace life.

Yeah, they don't have to be drug dealers, they could be thieves or pimps.

Or just humping the daughters of wealthy white men who pay them for the privilege.

And Mr. Bum? Your avatar is putting me on tilt. His daughter obviously pays black men for sexaments too, just to pay him back for his old man nerdliness.

whats up with all the hate against drug dealers? you know how many succeful people have started out dealing drugs? Jay-z, Nas, Denzel Washington, Ice Cube, Will Smith, Antonio esfandiari, Eddie Griffin, Whitney Houston, Mike Matusow, Allen Iverson, Busta Rhymes, Pacman Jones, bob marley, list goes on and on folks

you know how hard it is to sell drugs succefully? not only do you have to be afriad of being robbed by family, friends, strangers, killers, rapist, drug fiends, but you also have to be afraid of cops and especially drug dogs (those are the worst).
