Cheating on the gulf coast

Lol why do you keep digging deeper and deeper when your motivations are obvious.
Why turn yourself into a joke?

Wat?

That is a great response that smears without actually addressing anything. Congrats.

Stop already with this. It shows that you truly don't understand the game way more than it shows that something suspicious is going on. You say that you've been playing for 30 years. You mean to tell me that in those 30 years you have never put somebody on an open ended straight draw or a flush draw? I can say with a good bit of confidence that you have. Let's say the flop is 2/7/8 different suits. Let's say the Villain in the hand leads into the pre flop raiser post flop (you) and you cal. The turn is a 2. This card shouldn't be in Villains range, so when he bets turn you decide to call again with J/10. You call because you have two overs, a straight draw and block his straights. Pretty reasonable scenario so far, you agree? The river brings an Ace. This is a great card for Villain to represent. Villain who is a very aggressive player who likes to put people in the blender decides that with his hand ( which is 9/10 of diamonds) to go all in ......because that's his best path to win the hand. You have basically put him on 9/10 in your head and know he is capable of his push on the river. In this case you can call with a decent degree of confidence with Jack high. In a lot of cases you would be calling correctly.
That shows how calling with Jack high makes perfect sense and it now can not be seen as a proven chip dump. Second , Preston getting up to talk to the guy who was I'm assuming was knocked out might just be a simple case of a guy he likes and hasn't seen in a while and wanted to say something as simple as " sorry man. I hope to see you again soon" Thirdly him leaving the table for a long period of time is the stupidest reason yet that this was a chip dump. There was an obvious reason for the delayed absence to the table that we are not privy to. If you had any clue at what kind of competitor Preston is, you would know he would never leave a table for an extended period of time, especially the Main Event. Why would anybody just blind off most of the chips they just won??? This whole scenario is made up of swiss cheese theories. Preston is uber competitive. He isn't taking or dumping to anyone. He also isn't leaving the table for hours because somebody just dumped chips to him. It's laughable. He probably got sick or had a major issue at home. These are much more positive EV conclusions then he's so comfortable and with his chip stack and at the same time feeling guilty about how this all played out that I must go take an extended break. With a little bit of thought and processing the said scenerio my theory is just as likely if not way way way more likely than these crazy accusations. Your story would never make it to a courtroom, so forget about it being decided as a guilty verdict ( so to speak ) Again, these are just different levels of breaking down a hand that somebody less experienced wouldn't ponder on their own. That I get. I also get how it could make you feel a certain way, but let's stop shooting from the hip and calling out people without all the information. It's very dangerous. It's all easy to do with such bravoda as you and others have spoken here......because you are hiding behind a curtain and you are to much of a coward to state who you are and put you name where your mouth is. Again, I hate that recreational players feel this way sometimes. That is not good for the game. I myself am just a recreational player.

I have to intervene here.

So, what you’re saying, Bamatide88, is that you believe someone on a public forum—whom you’ve never met in your life—is mentally ill, and you also claim to enjoy the fact that this person has little value in his life?

I can’t imagine any words that could be posted on a public forum that would make me enjoy someone’s suffering, and I consider myself an average person.

It’s okay to call each other names and such—I mean, people get emotional; I get it. But unless you want to retract your statement, I don’t think this is the right place for you.

Or did I misunderstand something? After all, English isn’t my first language.

Young person on my rail in the main that no one there recognized? Can you describe what they looked like? If you don’t remember can you at least mention the “vouchers” with 300k+ earnings who were also at the table so I can ask them? You continue to attempt to slander me like I was involved in a chip dump when I can assure you I wasn’t.

You’re making very definitive accusations like you remember the hand perfectly, yet can’t describe the action, the opponent, who these “vouchers” are, etc. All you’ve said is that I was “called out” and left the table until it broke. Which I can assure you I’d never do out of fear of chip dumping speculation, or whatever this is.

The only time I remember leaving the table for that long during an RG event WAS in fact in STL, except it was in the closer event in the fall ‘23 series and it WAS for a medical emergency. Dylan Lemery can confirm this bc he was at my table. Daniel Lowery can confirm this bc I spoke with/texted him abt it. My wife can confirm this. The casino medical staff can confirm this. And I’m sure a lot of poker staff can as well.

Coincidentally, you mention another event in STL where I left the table for an extended period of time. This may very well have happened bc I’m prone to panic attacks and often have to take a walk, lay down in bed or take a cold shower to recover. (If you really want to know my personal issues there they are.)

However, I don’t recall this particular incident so any info you can give me would be helpful. Perhaps you and the vouchers can help me identify the opponent? I’d be happy to explain our history and why they may have called, or why I may have talked to them away from the table?

I can promise you that whoever it was, even if it was my own backer, best friend, wife, mother or whoever, it was a legitimate hand with absolutely no chip dumping involved.

“30 years” is not really a metric when it comes to poker volume. I play hundreds of live tournaments, thousands of online tournaments and millions of hands per year. Put in enough volume and you’ll see it’s not as rare as you think.

I was correctly called down by J high in a live tourney just a couple weeks ago. I was at a table with Michael Rocco past summer when he correctly called down with T high on AAQ54. I see hero calls like this constantly online.

His story was perfectly straight to me. He plays few MTTs - making him overwhelmingly a cash game player - and has seen shady stuff happen at the tables at the casinos being discussed in this thread. Your attack on this post either fails to understand it or is an attempt to purposefully impugn it.

NVG is back, baby!!!

You mean the racist Tanner B. ?

It was nice of him to go back and change/edit “Quit life” to “get help.” How thoughtful.

Unless that comment is still there and I didn’t go back enough pages.

Feels like 08’

How is dude saying cashper lost him money when his social media posts saying he became a millionaire because of it.

Someone that spends 40 weeks a year playing live mtts is lucky to get a couple hundred k hands a year much less millions

for what it's worth, he did say he plays thousands of online tournaments a year.

Quite a few people have signed up to 2p2 just for this thread. I don't know if it's gonna live up to the hype!

to a point, maybe.

but do you know what the G stands for in NVG?

I could care less if he does or doesn't, but in an earlier reply Cody pointed out he never backed Maurice.

whos ready for Tunica??? LOL.. should be fun with all the name calling and people hiding behind the keyboard.. i dont even play hardly any now a days but might come out of retirement just to see this shitshow

All I've said was this, then asked if that group just has it down better than everyone else. This thread is purely gossip and hearsay nothing has any sunlbstance outside of potential chip dumping within the stable, just echoing what I hear at these events and other places where players gather voicing the feelings of a large part of the community

You said smell fishy....you could of posted man this group crushes, how much studying they must do, but know you said what you did and got what u wanted. No time to step out now bro

I attended the entire series at Beau and came across at least five groups of people expressing their concerns, which piqued my genuine curiosity now we are here. Outside of some chip dumping I don't truly see anything nefarious, occasionally dealers weren't in complete protocol which should arise suspicions in others. It doesn't take the whole staff, it doesn't take any staff to pull off cheating in the current environment and was worth voicing my concern. Large groups of players feel like they're being stolen from by this stable operating as they do which. It's just part of the game at this point
