Let the poor fish have his moment of schadenfreude. He's been getting soundly thrashed online for the last eight years, and he's gonna be getting soundly thrashed in the future as online players go live.

Let him enjoy this small window of smugertunity.

Love how much energy OP expands itt to pathetically try to defend himself against the fact that he's just a bitter untalented douche with a sadistic streak.

But then they commit the worst EV plays of all:

1. They put all their eggs in one basket (on internet poker sites)

2. Internet poker was clearly ambiguous legally yet they put a lot of money in them.

Well now, all of the positive EV they got from 3-betting, blocking bets, pot control, and other stuff the "old school" are too uneducated to know anything about have been wiped out by the most negative EV decisions of all: putting most of one's eggs in one basket, namely, online poker and putting it in something that has infinite downside variance.

What irony. When "old School" Doyle laughed at them they got pi$$ed. LOL
Because nobody cashed out or made any money before black friday or anything.
