I got banned from a local tourny. $10 buy in..about 150 people show up. First place usually pays 1k. Well I won 3 times in a row. I show up for the 4th and they say I can't play. Now this is the funny part...they say I cheat. How you ask? I'm "psychic". Granted I do work as a psychic medium it amazes me that they would actually ban me. What do you guys think?

I think I'd let you play in my tournament, but only if I'm wearing a tin foil hat.

Tell them you'd be in Vegas if you were psychic.There's nothing wrong with mathematicians using their career to their advantage, so if you have a job that helps you pick off reads on people better, there's no reason you shouldn't be allowed to use that to your advantage.Seems like they don't want you playing because you win too often. It happened to me once when I stopped getting phone calls when the game was getting together because one less good player is better for everyone else involved.

They told me you were banned because you were trying to drum up business at the tables after they repeatedly told you to quit.............I could be bluffing but.....That's my read on you. Tell us the name of the B&M that doesnt let you play because they think you can read the cards.....I await your response

Drum up business..I would never. Believe me advertising as a psychic medium is the last thing I would do at a poker tourny. People look at you funny. :D It's not at the casino...they would never I'm actually well liked there. Its at a local bar.

Then i beg your forgiveness......I bluffed, you called and I had 7, 2 offsuitBut........Maybe you should rethink your strategy about playing in a pub...try a place that can't censor you for winning....The bar is trying to get customers in to buy beer and nuts..if the same guy wins every week...people will stop coming

Granted I do work as a psychic medium it amazes me that they would actually ban me. What do you guys think?That they should have hit you in the head with a shovel and then jumped up an down on your ribcage untill it was soft for being such a pathetic two bit hustler preying on weak emotionally unstable people.Not that I'm advocating that. It's just what should be done to all "psychics" "faith healers" etc.Get better at poker so you can prey on weak defenrate gamblers. Haev some ****ing pride.

Yes it is a players deal tourny. I'm sure they think I'm a card shark but used that lame excuse since someone did know what I do on the side.

You're a fraud.I'll put by $10,000 against your $10,000 on any test of your "psyichic" abilities.I can't imagine you're psychotic, so I'm going to go with you know you're fraud, that you can do simple cold reads and exploit vunerable people for their money.You're scum.

Not scum. Leeches. Or parasites. Scum is worthless, but I have greater contempt for psychics.

Sure psychics are fakes, but to call them scum for giving people what they want is hardly fraud. There are all kinds of things that people buy or pay for that doesn't really work, but I say it's up to the consumer on this type of thing. If you are someone that actually buys into this sort of thing, then you are being provided with the service that you wanted. I'm not saying that it's not the most idiotic career possible, because it probably is, but the fact is that people still create a market for it. Let the buyer beware.
