Sarah herring sucks and is a total shill. Fire her.
I haven't watched the Kenney interview yet, but I'm not looking forward to it. Or shall I say, I WAS looking forward to it, until I read the reviews of it, and I think it's just going to frustrate me.
With that said, I was one of the few people who defended Mike Matusow's interviewing of Postle, because people didn't understand that Postle was only going to talk to a "friendly" party, and it ended up being the only time he spoke to anyone. A year later, that interview was useful to me in my defense of his lawsuit against me (which ended up being dropped), because Postle admitted to being a public figure, among other things.
Anyway, perhaps I'll watch Sarah (who apparently was friends with Kenney, and thus scored the interview for that reason), and I'll think the same thing. Sometimes there's just no way to get an interview with someone unless they know softballs are coming. I'll comment after I watch it.
In the meantime, here's a Will Jaffe tough convo:

Better to watch Joey’s podcast with Doug where they basically watch the interview while commentating on it (Druff style)Quote:

Interesting about the Facebook post above.
I wouldn't put cheating past anyone associated with Bryn's stable. That whole group seems like a collection of shady people.
I put out this offer on Twitter, which presently has about 15,000 views:

While I have been somewhat critical of Bryn, I have nothing personally against him, and was neutral on the guy prior to this scandal. As promised, I will be respectful and non-combative if we have such an interview, though I will not make it a softball, either.
I doubt he will take me up on it, but it would be great if he did.
Keep asking him because you would hold his feet to the fire. That interview he did with Sarah was terrible. She has known him for a long time and they are definitely friends. Right there that should disqualify her from interviewing Bryn. I felt like she was setting him up for his rehearsed answers and most of it was a pure softball. He answered pretty much nothing.Quote:

Some people countered that Zamani could have photoshopped these Whatsapp conversations. In my expert opinion involving decades of detecting online bullshitters, I believe these are authentic. However, given Zamani's shady history, and given the relative ease in taking a real conversation and splicing in some fake portions, we can't be sure.
If Bryn doesn't come forward and say these are fake, though, then they're probably real.

Also, the "Cocksucker Miscikowsi" name has really stuck, as has the term "CSM" coined by Doug Polk. Brandon Shack-Harris even has his Twitter name listed as "Cocksucker Misikowski" at the moment. If David Miscikowski shows his face at WSOP, I'm sure everyone's gonna be thinking "cocksucker" as he walks by.
I'm going to post the PFA Radio show about Bryn's interview later tonight.
In the meantime, apparently Pokernews got and authenticated text messages to/from Bryn. Matt Berkey summarized it below:

You can also read the Pokernews article here: https://www.pokernews.com/news/2022/...ting-41132.htm
Listened to whole segment on radio. So much bs by Kryn , what a good guy he was , Very well covered by Tod GG doesn't have clean hands and probably knew what was going on. Very shady to have an agent meant only to be played from Usa the biggest no no. I still don't understand why can't play poker in ny now that sports betting is legal. No pokers though. Zero chance guy would come on to pfa druff would eviscerate himQuote:

Why isn't gg facing a backlash for letting usa players vpn onto the site?
Yup. Actually he's offering one, and adding to an existing giveaway which is otherwise generous and non-controversial.Quote:

I agree with Berkey here. She should not allow Bryn to openly donate one of the seats, in order to get "credit" for doing something nice. If Bryn wants to run his own free Main Event seat contest, that's up to him. However, Nadya should not allow Bryn to nose his way into her well-regarded contests in order to improve his own image.
Nadya has run several contests over the last year or so, open to women only, to get free seats to events. Not sure why she's letting Bryn involve himself here, given that these contests were well-liked by everyone.
Although it is beyond transparent why Bryn is offering this and making sure he gets the credit publicly, we all know that all kinds of money from nefarious sources is part of the ecosystem. I’m sure it’s overall a very small percentage, but we all know the deal.Quote:

If Bryn wants to put me in to the main I’m snap saying yes. I’ve also been running like the plague, so I may have to accept from Harvey as well, but I would draw the line with ISIS.
I understand Druff being a successful well regarded pro for a long time and Berkey who it seems doesn’t need to depend on actual poker profit to make a living to be able to take a stronger moral stance. To be fair, they may take that stance regardless of current situation.
To be clear, I respect that stance. But that seat can go to someone without the roll to buyin and it’s just tough to turn this coin down for so many imho. We know poker is harder than ever before and there are so many “pros” in and out of action. A main event seat is an invaluable chance to build a roll in 2 weeks. Tough to turn down.
I also realize that Zamani’s defense for basically everything he did was he was busto and needed to be staked by Bryn to stay in action. But something doesn’t quite sit right about that being an excuse for everything. There is for sure a lot of gray area here and self rationalizations. Of which admittedly I am guilty of as well in this post.
I would love to have a strict moral code which I adhere to regardless of circumstance. But I guess I do not. Would love to always do the righteous thing but life isn’t always smooth sailing. I don’t think my moral compass is that flexible. Or at least that’s my hope. But I do think that turning this saet down is a tough ask for Nadya to do.
I still think Nadya should have simply said, "Thanks, but due to the recent controversy involving you, this isn't something I want to inject myself into. If you wish to give away a seat, perhaps you can run your own contest and also award one to a female?"
I don't so much care where the money was "sourced" (Berkey's apparent concern), but more that a third party is allowing Kenney to use their well-regarded contest to repair his image.
In short, Kenney should have been told, "Run your own contest to repair your image, hands off of mine."
This is exactly why the poker world looks like it does and always will lols ...Quote:

I don't like this story and I hate how the poker world only revolves around what Doug Polk and Joey Ingram take any interest in. This only got attention because Doug can't stand BK for whatever reason and he found an opportunity to stomp on his throat. The fact that people care about what Zamani says is amazing. That guy is shady as fuck and I don't trust him at all and could care less about anything he has to say because he too is obviously trying to get back at BK for something. Doug giving someone like that a platform was only because of his beef with BK. Joey Ingram only cares about poker controversies that might get him laid and he only shows up when a hot chick is involved. Polk and Ingram are both sellouts who stab the poker community in the back by not outing the biggest cheaters are the sites themselves. It's obvious Joey was being paid off by ACR in those hands that were posted on this forum that druff ignored. It's like druff is a shill for these sites and his job is to only bring attention to the bullshit controversies and not the real ones. It is either that or he relies on Doug Polk to tell him what is important and what to care about when it comes to poker. Why can't someone just explain why the people that are known for calling out cheaters and scandals and are always defending the sites and always saying that the games are fair and not rigged, but never play online poker themselves? Joey, Doug, and Druff don't play online poker. That should tell everyone what they need to know about what they really think about these sites. Doug Polk allegedly made millions of dollars crushing heads up poker and then just quit. HUH? I know if I made millions of dollars doing something that I would just quit abruptly as well .... His whole story is wonky and I don't buy the last portion of it. I believe he very well could have played and earned millions through honest poker playing ability but I don't believe the reason he doesn't play poker is because he can't find a game or anyone to play against. I think he knows that these sites are all rigged with super using house bots and that nobody who plays online can win. Then on the odd chance that someone does, they have a problem cashing out almost all the time. This wasn't always the case and I think the change came when Pokerstars changed ownership. When they became casino's as well as poker sites, I would bet that that's when the games started to be rigged. Then with the evolution of bots and the ability for the sites to dip into the player balances without actually just taking from the player balances. I think it is a MAJOR conflict of interest for the sites to be in charge of deposits and withdrawals and those should be done by a third party.
You just suck at poker ...Quote:

The guy has had very solid WSOP results overall, but he's forever going to be known as a cocksucker because of this whole thing.
I am dating a playboy bunny and I am a professional athlete and just signed a huge contract to endorse a new line of sneakers. These are just words and mean nothing. The only difference is I know that that previous statement was an obvious lie and you believe your own lies to make yourself feel better. Back to reality and the real me. I was a winning player on Full Tilt when they first introduced Rush. I deposited $20 and ran it up to $6500 and then BF came. I would watch cardrunners videos and when I tried the new strategies, they would work and I would see results. I remember I looked at my stats and if I had a stat that was too high or low then my results improved when I got that stat close to the number given in those videos. When I went back to poker recently this is not the case. No matter what strategy I tried and no matter how much I studied it did not matter because these sites are full of bots that can see your cards, they can see the runout before you do, and the RNG is rigged in their favor. So strategy goes out the window because when you are playing against players or bots that can see your cards then you will not win. You aren't a winning poker player in 2022. That I know.Quote:
