Does the $135,000 require a gift tax return to be filed or a 1099 since she is paying taxes on the win?

Oh and there is this…

Garrett's true colors are coming out. He is a virtue signaling fraud. And I believe he specifically requested a black child for his Big Brother charity work so he can virtual signal.
Wow. A little more insight into why Ben was the guest who “pressed” Vertucci. This is escalating big time.
This is a very strong statement.

“Scumming” is a pretty broad term. Usually is about not paying money back, but I don’t think that’s the context he is using it. All I remember is that Nik wanted to get into the game the night of the J4 and was not given a seat. Presumably by Garrett’s urging. Amazing that nowadays Airball is the key to the high stakes games on Hustler. Airball had bad things to say about Garrett on Joey Ingram that day.
Anyone want to go to Nicks real estate seminar with me?
Poker Twitter is going crazy on this topic. Lynne and Brown Balla attacking Garrett. I have to give Druff credit...he said a few times on the radio show that he believed his image on the streams was fake.Quote:

Ben said it on Vertuccis podcast not 1 player in those games wants Garrett back (or Andy the thief back either lol) not 1, everyone knew Ryan & Vertucci needed Gman in the beginning to build the HCL streams popularity but now they don't need him at all and nobody wants to play with him lol
Ryan and Nick certainly don't want him back either, Vertucci is just to chicken shit to come out & actually say it, Feldman is to nice of a guy so I understand him just keeping quiet but Gman is done from HCL he ain't coming back lol

I wouldn't be surprised at all if Doug Polk and the Lodge can poach Eric Persson & his crew away or put together some really insane High Stakes games, I mean did anyone watch the Lodge high stakes stream!?! Texas poker is insane [emoji15] the Comic Book guy was playing just bananas lol if Nik Airball comes back to the Lodge I could see him easily losing $1million in just a few hrs the way some of these guys in Texas play

I think Garrett has to realize by now that nobody really cares to see him anymore, guy ruined reputation for the 135k and exposed himself as fraud/narcissist and there seems to be no coming back, not seen anyone defend him but plenty of players shitting on him, it’s great to see since he’s POS.Quote:

He included a weak denial regarding the allegation that he "controls lineups", which I don't believe. I think he didn't have 100% say in the lineup, but that he highly influenced them.

It will be interesting to see if Doug really presses Garrett on the questions he’s clearly decided not to address. It’s evident that if you ask him about the 135K you get snap blocked by him. I can’t see Doug not asking. My guess on that is Garrett will say “for legal reasons I can’t discuss the money at all”.
Doug would take so much shit if he didn’t ask. Garrett’s silence I think is somewhat a legal strategy given California courts not settling gambling disputes. Pretty sure that’s how it will go down. Garrett has certainly cherry picked what he has tweeted about. I feel Polk may go easy on him in general. He wants to make sure he gets him to the Lodge. This may be a softball interview. Think there’s a lot more pressure on Doug than he probably realizes.
https://twitter.com/DougPolkVids/sta...319136769?s=20
Just also wanted to add I have just 0 interest in Doug playing Bill Perkins at the Lodge. It feels like Monopoly money for Doug because he owns the Lodge. For Perkins, it’s like money he finds in his couch cushions. Impossible to care at all about the outcome.
Online sites will dropkick a player for bumhunting why would a live stream want something that blatant going on is beyond me. Its making me laugh that Garrett the Douchebag has been exposed for the POS fraud he is. The truth will always come out about how much of a piece of shit somebody is eventually. Theyll slip up and all the slimy shit will ooze out of them eventually in this case its like Garretts true personality was that of a boil on Poker Twitters ass and it got cut open and all the shit poured out finally. Poker Twitter will be better for this in the end. All the Gman fan boys have to be all wondering what they missed while they were gargling his balls.Quote:

shes a novelty at the moment. good at getting attention and being used by those who can monetize that attention.
the attention goes away once the lack of substance cannot be ignored.
she'll continue to find more desperate, shallow ways to get the attention that she feeds off of. all of those who are funding her poker play will lose interest and she'll find another community to run her grift on.
another product of the hcl stream - bringing scammers into the poker community for 2+ years. thanks nick and ryan!
And...who would be to blame for this attention?
I guess it's probably the guy that, more-or-less, hand selected her as an opponent and proceeded to accuse her of cheating, during a lifestream, absent even a shred of actual evidence.
There's a recent video from Live at the Bike of her donking off her stack with a bad straight (on the bottom hand) and missed flush draw up top. The absolute best she could have ever hoped for on that hand was to win with the straight on the bottom and chopped the pot.
If there's one thing Garrett should really be kicking himself over, it should be his failure to get that 134.5k back legitimately along with everything else that was in her stack at that table. My take on Robbi is she's just allergic to folding if she thinks she has a read, or alternatively, has anything whatsoever that could even conceivably win the hand.
I also find it ironic how she gets some hate here, and from some others, for doing anything to capitalize on the attention that she never asked for in the first place. Why shouldn't she try to monetize being thrust into the limelight by any means possible? Wouldn't most of you do the same?
saying that she didn't ask for the attention is not accurate.
she clearly wanted attention and was trying very hard to get it; and is now loving it.
too many 'coincidences' and outright lies for me to believe anything she says.
she seems to lie very naturally, minimize it when called out, and then look for sympathy because she 'never asked for any of this'.
its very off putting and the type of behavior you see in people who are being deceitful.
we'll probably eventually find out what happened. these things have a way of coming to light.
"i knew he had nothing" + a guy taking 15k from her stack and her wanting to forgive him just doesnt add up
Reminds me of Jamie GoldQuote:

Plain & Simple it wasn't her money on the table, Robbi gave 0 fucks at all if she lost her stack or that pot, she probably felt like if she lost $ to Garrett he'd like her more & want her back on the stream to play more cause she sucks, which she does lol
People mostly forget she didn't care about that money at all it wqs Nik Airballs money and Rip was responsible for paying him back, Robbi didn't care about losing the money at all lol

Interesting.
I've never seen markdown before. I'll give Robbi points for creativity.
However, these are both really tough events. I wouldn't buy her at 0.95.
This is the woman who at one point in her ramblings claimed she couldn't have cheated because of how rich she is.
Where are the twitter markup police on this one? selling at a loss doesn't mean that it isa good deal for the buyer.
How is this price in competitive events less 'predatory' than hellmuth or matusow charging big markup?
Bc Robbi is a fish that no one would be inclined to back who wasn't tryin to get in her pants. Matusow and Hellmuth are known +ev spots so their markups are 100x more predatory lol.Quote:

I do believe that Robbi's lawsuit threats are nonsense, and one will never occur.
This is because both players are considered limited purpose public figures in poker, as they chose to voluntarily appear on a high stakes poker stream.
Therefore, the threshold to prove defamation requires "actual malice" -- which is defined as saying something untrue which you KNOW is untrue.
It is pretty clear that Garrett THINKS he was cheated, so there's no way to show actual malice here.
Case is dead in the water. Robbi's lawyer husband knows this.
At the same time, LOL @ Garrett pretending he is holding back some bombshell which will prove him right. There's nothing he can do at this point, and it's clear that he already shot his load.
What the fuck is this narcissistic asshole on about now?Quote:

Stealing her money was one thing, but now he's trying to dunk again a year later? He's lucky she has a good sense of humor. If it were me in her place, I really don't see what alternative I would have to putting this bitch (Garrett) in the ground. His death is the only way I could be satisfied and vindicated were I in Robbi's shoes. The investigation found nothing.
Of course, I'd have had a third party hold the money while it was investigated to begin with.
Garrett truly flew too close to the sun , got over hyped on himself (with the help of everyone around him) and either lost his marbles or always was lost and just sociopathicly hid it in an attempt to mingle with the morons and take all there unearned moneys.
guys the one great thing that came out of this shitshow is the rise of berkey, before all this started I had never fucking heard of the guy except that he backed landon tice in that ill advised HU match where HU end boss landon gave bill perkins like 9 to 1 or some shit. After seeing all this shit go down with the back and forth between nik and garrett and then nik and berkey with doug polk in the mix I started watching the solve4why stream daily. Great content, great stream. Kind of ironic that Nik calling out berkey made him a million bucks richer
Just sharing this because had to do it. Apparently Vertucci believes Garrett’s statement was taking a dig at him. What a world…somehow the Robbi hand & the situation in Israel have been conflated. Can’t make this shit up if you tried.
https://x.com/GmanPoker/status/1712206027708666061?s=20
Got to screen grab Vertucci because he will edit and/or retract this by the time I post it. Guy should stay off Twitter.
BTW I just wanted to be clear in the above post I am not commenting on either’s stated position. This is not the section for that. I am simply pointing out that Nick is clearly surmising that Garrett’s statement includes a dig either at him or others including him.
I have no idea of Garrett’s intent. I guess Nick’s statement just shows how bad the relationship is at this point. I would hope that Garrett would not have Nick in mind when making such a statement…but who the fuck knows? Just the fact Nick reacts to it in that matter is telling.
I will say that for me the product on Fridays is unwatchable. It is terrible poker and feels like a bunch of rich guys shooting the shit and passing around money. Whatever you think of Garrett, his play style greatly changed how those games went. For my money, they were much more interesting.
I do believe Garrett played a pivotal role in Feldman’s progression as an EP, the growth of LATB and the growth of Hustler. Now that he has gone the brand is so strong that it doesn’t seem to have any effect. But the games were much more interesting imho with an aggressive pro in them.
Adelstein is just basically admitting he is a self-loathing Jew obviously. On a side note, did folks hear some of these left-wing so-called professors are offering extra credit to their lemming leftists in training extra credit for attending Pro Palestinian marchs or protests on campus. Ya can't make this shit up. Totally disgusting. And worse these POS students are hiding their faces when video taped. Hey if you support Hamas murdering little babies the least you can do is have the balls to show your fucking face and stand up for your antisemitic shit your spewing.
What galls me the most is people falling for these innocents being killed crap regarding the women and children. The truth is Hamas are fucking cowards. They ran out a massive attack then grabbed innocents dragging them back to their fenced in shit hole to use them as well as their own people as human shields so they can claim brutality by the IDF. This isn't some new playbook this is the same shit Camelfuckers do all the time. Using women and children as shields hiding behind them like cowards. Using hospitals and schools as bases of operations to launch rocket attacks and then complain IDF is targeting civilian buildings when its furthest from the truth.
And this open-air prison accusation. Just pointing out that no other Muslim country has offered Palestinians legit refugee status or safe harbor. Jordan doesn't even want them because they know the dirty truth that there's an ingrained Jihadi mentality and they don't want that shit infecting their own populace and risk an Iranian type of theocracy movement overthrowing a legitimate or even rather illegitimate dictatorial regime like Syria.
Sorry Druff didn't mean to derail the thread but the last couple posts kind of sent me that direction in here.
BUMP…
Adelstein has officially doubled down on his asinine take and accusations against RJL.

So Garrett is coming back and he will be playing on the Bally’s stream and the WPT stream this week. It’s seems Garrett is the only guy who really moves the needle with these streams. Although the WPT stream is just because of the tournament and God only knows what will become of the Ballys stream.
It will be interesting to see the numbers here. Interesting that he has not announced anything dealing with PokerGo. I do remember Rob Yong telling Garrett that he was told by people at PokerGo it would be awkward having him back with the 135K still unresolved.
So Garrett could have taken that personally, the PokerGo people could find it as a concern or could be they simply were not interested in doing this right now. I think the timing is probably just not right as PokerGo is in business with GG and it seems all their talent and resources are in the Bahamas right now.
I think the 135K will become a total nom issue as far as Garrett streaming once he does these couple shows. Now, Hustler is the only livestream in LA where Garrett lives. Look, Garrett coming back would be great for HCL. They have been losing high stakes players left & right. Most of the guys not wanting Garrett in the game don’t even play on the stream anymore. Add up the recent private game drama and HCL is in need of a reboot of sorts.
I think Feldman could actually fix things with Garrett. It wouldn’t be easy, but I think he could. Problem is Vertucci has made Garrett so irate that I think Garrett will ultimately not come back. I think that goose is cooked. Polk would literally suck Garrett’s Dick for him to go to the Lodge. I think he will get him there at some point, but it will be a one off.
If I had to guess I would say Garrett will not become a regular livestream player again in the near future. Main reason being there is just no alternative to HCL in LA. The big winner here is Joey Ingram. The guy works about a week total a year and absolutely kills it. His twitter was locked since he hosted the Million Dollar Game at Hustler months ago and now is unlocked for him to get paid & laid just in time for Christmas. Not hating, God Bless the guy. He has made himself a PPV attraction.
https://x.com/GmanPoker/status/1734354822537834649?s=20
BTW I am solidly in the Garrett was cheated camp and have been for some time. Feldman saying 40% when asked by Rob Yong solidified that for me. This Bryan kid is shady af and totally desperate. I think RIP/Robbi/Bryan knew it was more likely than not that Garrett would put Robbi all in at some point.
In real time people are nervous. They are not thinking “Robbi is technically ahead but Garrett is an equity favorite, maybe this isn’t the hand.” They see Jack high beats 9 high. This is our shot. I truly do believe that now. I just don’t believe this guy Bryan would not try and profit off the fact he could see the cards. I also think Garrett knows he will lose in arbitration because there is no real evidence.
I think the scheme was made as simple as possible. This signal means you are ahead and/or this one means you are behind. It just happened to occur during a really sketchy hand. But like I said, in real time people are not thinking clearly.
Anyways, Garrett coming back is something new at least. Will be interesting to see where it goes.
