Recommended Posts

Might be time to learn some Filipino and Tagalog because some big money games have moved over there.

At least he has the General MacArthur spirit. MacArthur's famous line after getting his ass whipped in the Phillipines was:

 

"I Shall Return"

 

and he did.

I think he's being honest about how big his loss was.

 

He might be, but these guys are playing cards for huge, unaccountable sums of money in foreign countries and then being expected to 'report' things on their taxes to the IRS where it is literally impossible to prove one way or the other, but the IRS absolutely can (and does) use social media posts as evidence of lavish lifestyles, etc when making the assertion of unreported income.

 

If I were a nosebleed player, I would never, ever talk about a losing session and whenever I won, I'd lament how horrible my luck had been and how much I lost.

 

These are all guys capable of thinking levels ahead of 'the fans' who read their social media from the sidelines. Things aren't as they seem. Its all a huge, meta game.
