Seeing this thread he would be a person after hearing him say that I would never loan money to. Actually surprised CTS actually loaned him money, he seems smarter than that. Lesson learned I guess.
That's why he was smiling. He lost, wasn't his money. He scams some high roller and if he wins great. Pure profit. If he loses oh well can't pay that person back and finds the next mark. Must be a nice gig for him. Got exposed on here and within weeks was playing high limit tv games and welcomed like he is a known saint.
That's why I'm done being shocked anymore. Nobody gets held accountable in the poker community. Total fn joke all the way around. As I have written before, there seemed to be more outrage that some airport degen Mike B hustled $100 from someone than guys like Eli, Chino, Lindgren and lots of others who "borrow" 6 figures from players and never pay them back. Gotta just shake your head.
