Congrats AAismyfriend and Tookyourcookie on your scores. I don't expect any compensation for this thread. I just hope in the future, every single shy internet kid isn't forced to deal with the harrassment I had to deal with. I hope you both realize that your equity would severely have been effected had I not spoken up on the bubble.

As to the haters,


You are all idiots! I will do what I do best. You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain. This thread will serve a purpose. The next bubble/sattelite fiasco can have this thread to look back on. As always, I will be 2p2/mttc's dark knight.

<3 Charder

I will

I leave you with this

Good night and gl everyone. Wouldn't be the same even without the haters so its all good...I'll be the hero mttc deserves.
The idiots can not win.

[QUOTE=The Bear Jew;29823339] I really want to kill myself.



i don't know much about you man but this is seriously disturbing and really wish anyone close to you would help you get help. i don't claim to know what kind of situation you're in but ffs evaluate and re-evaluate your decisions.

The last time I refused to pay the bubble boy I had 10 players berate me to some extent or another.

When the bubble burst I said "now let's take off £500 from 1st to give to the guy who has just been busted. Does everyone agree?".

Only 3 of the 10 agreed to my suggestion

And they called me greedy and selfish just 15 minutes earlier!

I thought you said you'd never post on 2p2 again?

Anyways:

I was most definitely the smartest person in that room, and that wasn't saying much.

Lol there's nothing that points to sm not being the smartest guy in any kind of Ct/nj poker tournaments, and there's nothing wrong w being condescendant in this spot in his shoes.

Sorry if I don't know how to spell that engrish not my first

I know how you feel I've been in similar situations on livament bubbles where all the players harass me for turning down paying the bubble but most of the time the floor has been good for me and has like threaten giving a player a penalty if they brought up anything about paying the bubble.

Ya this happens all too often

Still wrong. Seriously, you guys need to read the classics more often.

Oliver Twist is the kid who asks for more gruel. At that point in the story, he's living in a workhouse run by Mr. Bumble. He and the other boys in the workhouse draw lots, Oliver loses, so he's the one who has to approach Bumble to say "Please, sir, I want some more."

Tiny Tim is, indeed, in "A Christmas Carol" with Scrooge, but he never asks Scrooge for anything.

Everyone should shut the **** up about munk's issues. Munk came to post about how when he said he didnt want to pay the bubble, they made fun /berated /harassed him. Then you come and you do the same **** to him. Seriously just shut the **** up, this thread is about how TD's dont understand this simple fact, that paying the bubble boy is collusion if anyone objects and the discussion should stop once anyone objects.

serious question. Don't you guys think this site should be banned? http://www.bubbleprotection.com/

lol, why, and on what grounds?

I love you munk.

Please don't kill yourself

I just stumbled on this thread. Op is right as soon as one person refuses bubble boy discussion is mute.

Op said he won several hundred thousands of dollars onlline and paid taxes on it somewhere in his thread. Can't be that smart if wasn't able to invest winnings. Somewhere in thread said was almost broke.

Op is banned , no surprise there. How is op doing as this thread is a year old. I stumbled on it as I was looking for foxwoods vs mohegan poker room comparisons.

op is an legend

It's very ironic for me to see this thread for the first time today, as I had a very similar experience yesterday in the exact same room.

Tourney was their monthly $330, 30k gtd and after about ten hrs, 17 were left, 15 pay.

Everyone began to propose paying the bubble, and I immediately announced 'No, decline', to which I was told I was being 'rude' by the only female at the table (which is really just another way of calling someone an *******). I defended myself, explaining I thought the scenario had to be unanimous and I was trying to end the discussion as quickly as possible. People keep going on, however, speaking of how this is a 'courtesy' etc etc. It really is amateur hour all day every day in this casino.

With 16 left it gets brought up again, and I have the same response. One of the more abrasive gentlemen in play then shouts at me, 'Ok, so WE WON'T PAY YOU'. I tell him I'm done with the conversation and wish to proceed with the poker tournament. Mine is the only objection, and everyone in the room other than me deems it fair for each player to pitch in on a bubble payout, and if the one exception is the bubble boy he does not get paid. One player from my table then collects 20 dollars from every player but me, and I sit there with my head in my hands.

Hand for hand play continues, and several short stacks double and triple up. I pick up QJo in the HJ and shove ~170k over 12k bb. The small blind covers, calls with ace king and wins the hand. One player announces with glee, 'Everybody gets their money back!' and I silently exit the room.

The tournament ended up chopping 9 handed.

It really is an unnerving scenario. Something that is definitely not limited to this poker room, but Mohegan Sun very much deserves to be outed for their many egregious flaws, of this and other natures.

Of course, I sympathize a ton with OP. While there may be an imbalance in his reaction relative to a 'big picture' context, it's really tough to pass judgement without knowing the degree of idiocy among the breed of individuals he encountered.

Hope you're doin ok, stealthmunk, and I hope we get a chance to talk or meet someday.

Cheers,

Dan

lol i deal with that situation every week at my local casino dan...they just collect from everyone but me and pay out accordingly...

except last week they did a "double bubble" and the dolts accidentally paid the 13th place finisher(10 pay so they were supposed to pay 11+12th and by the time they figured out what they did that guy was already sitting at a 3/6/12 game with his newfound bubble money and they had to split the remainded of the bubble between 11th and 12th places.

Amateur hour indeed

No floor should ever allow that type of deal to happen with "collect from everyone but me". That kills you trying to run over the bubble, how can tourney staff ever let that slide? It makes it even worse since now you're the only one that's on the actual bubble and everyone else is ITM...

Mohegan Sun tournament director participates in these forums still I believe. I'm very surprised to see he has never made an appearance in this thread

Actually he no longer works there.
