I believe BPD is borderline personality disorder not bipolar. But same sentiment, absolutely wild to do from comments in a poker forum where the guy hes diagnosing didn't even start the beef and whose character was attempted to be misrepresented by out of context ss's,.

My mistake and I agree with you. A man showing some emotion and annoyance seems reasonable to me in this situation but apparently humans aren't allowed to have emotions or express themselves without being diagnosed with a mental problem.

I agree. I will also go bitch slap Eelis if he keeps annoying me.

There is Ukrainian guy with a similar name playing Triton events, could be the same guy?

Well, Alex is the short form of Oleksandr.
It’s the same guy or the biggest coincidence of the hs poker world.

Would be happy to host this in Vegas on the strip if you want two actually want to play and help document it for the fans.

I know EEE comes out here to battle the tourney series.

Genuinely hope and think no highstakes regs will give you the opportunity to make money or clout from them again after your betrayal in regards to the gg vip games. You're a sell out.

Sorry it came off that way - I'm not selling out anything to GG poker or what they are planning for the games. I hope they keep a place for the regs who want to battle to still play. If it was my games I would let people battle who wanted to do so.


Day 3 waiting Berri vs Sanita match up to resume..

That seems severe. Joey has always been players first and avoided taking I imagine countless opportunities to enrich himself from brand deals/sponsors etc over the yrs because he felt loyalty to players and a desire to maintain his integrity.

I feel like the rules on GG for high stakes are really just going to not allow a handful of regs, at most. Or maybe they allow everyone from the jump to get access and then revoke your invite if seen buttoning or hnr etc.


Agree Joey is a good guy and has done a lot for the poker community.

He built his podcast and deserves to monetise it.

I believe he has a genuinely more nuanced view on the GG situation.

I hope he changes his mind and finds another sponsor, but I respect the decision.

here.


even good guys that have done a lot for the community can become sell-outs

I'm not sponsored by GG - they've been offering it to me since they launched the site and I've turned them down. I haven't agreed with the way they handled PLO rake.

I was sharing my perspective in the thread from living in Vegas/USA poker world and seeing how the games are all in the private game world. I don't agree that getting rid of high stakes as a lot of people know it and love is the best move.


This is what you should lead with anytime you get shill accusations imo

"I'm not sponsored by GG - they've been offering it to me since they launched the site and I've turned them down. I haven't agreed with the way they handled PLO rake."



New private VIP games active from today on GG. There would usually be multiple 5k tables running at this time and a handful of 10k+ depending on who is online. Today there is this... Games already looking dead!


Yooooo are those VPIP restrictions on the tables? Holy **** implement that on all of the cash tables at all stakes ASAP pl0x


This is the first time i see such thing, it’s beyond imagination, idk what’s GG doing and hows gonna success




Looks like you can still post hands from these tables, but I wouldn't support giving them any exposure/free marketing.


RIP .. VIP games tab gone from lobby and Elky + innerpsy open sitting the games


The new endbosses on GG will be sponsored pros allowed to sit and siphon whale money to themselves
