oh lawd, watching the EPT Berlin with Viktor now and a) when Viktor is announced for being @ the featured table Stapleton says "you're welcome unnamed internet poker forum" and b) HE'S WEARING THE SWEATSHIRT and got the oldstyle hairdo. Badass.

edit: LOL Isi sounds literally ******ed when he's laughing saying "8 of hearts"

LOL yeah he does sound a bit tarded. Those shots of him off the table looking into the camera were a bit awkward as well, I'm sure he hated doing that, he looks at home at the table though. I liked that german guys float and bluff too.

Oh I understand why people want to talk about Isildur (and durrrr does create a lot of action and can play himself into the ground), It's just that I'm not sure why the size of his bankroll or how much exactly he's won are such interesting subjects to discuss.

Phwooooooar. I'm old enough to be his dad but I still totally would. I can only imagine the homoerotic feelings that he must inspire in the ripe young men of this forum, what with the giddy hormonal intensities of youth. It's no wonder everyone argues about him in this thread as if he were a pop star, or as if they were a jilted lover.

Viktor is a stud! I hope he goes on a 2 million $upswing on FTP in NOV!

10-23-2012 , 06:10 AM
Great pic, has a lot to do with high stakes if high stakes players are playing in it...but I think U JELLY.

No, AFAIK, but on episode 4 of the same EPT Berlin he's on the secondary feature table

Right, imagine what he must inspire in the young women of this forum BTW, I hope I'm not the only one

Post counts should entitle me to make the rules around here.

Kneel all you lazy posters.

except moki - he can keep standing all the better to throw his bile on viktor.

And all those whinging about the other posters itt - there is the ignore button.

Use it.

Right, let me rephrase that: VT is and has been the most important contributor to these high-stakes threads for some time and he rarely posts his opinions (especially if compared to the amount of HHs and updates he gives) so I don't think he shouldn't get in the same category with people who like/dislike a player and keep saying the same ****ing things over and over again. I never said we should just post HHs, nobody would like that, but it's stupid to go through a few pages and it's all just: Isildur is a fish, Jeans is a luckbox, Sauce wins every time etc.
I guess I should start using the ignore button more or spend less time in here...
Have a nice day everyone!

Calm down bro. You're obviously a great contributor to this thread but I feel like you've been getting on your high horse a little lately. Some people just like the hand histories, some prefer the banter and obv some (like me) like both. I think that there's room for all of us in this thread. I mean there are lots of times when there are luls in the action and the banter is great at keeping the thread going instead of sitting idle for a couple of days. I really don't see the BS you're talking about nor do I find any of the posts 'embarassing'. If there are specific posters saying the same thing over and over then feel free to block them or mention it to a mod. Cheers.

Loool at certain regs/HH posters getting all elitist in this thread.
Stop with the cliquey behaviour it's embarrassing, I really don't understand why people cant just scroll past the stupid trollish posts.
What, do you have no control, that you MUST read every post??

People complaining about the 'quality' of posts ITT, ironically(as we all know ofc!) are just adding fluff themselves. Poor form.

This thread would be NOTHING without its participants, much like a football club is nothing without the home fans coming to games and filling the stadium.
HH posters, seriously you need to get off your high horse, as, lets be real, all you are doing is copying/pasting hh's. Now that's not a disrespect, but some people seem to think they are more important than they actually are.

To think, earlier this year I proposed that we set up a fund where we can send money to reg HH posters and for there screenames to be put in the OP each month.
All I got in response was basically tumbleweed&air loool, but maybe I'm seeing the reason for this now?


The people that get angry/frustrated/irritated by this thread, so much so, that they feel they have to comment about, just think about what you are getting angry at....Is it really worth getting so het up for, in the grand scheme of things?
