Wow. I'll stay away from this thread. Seriously speaking, my initial thoughts were the guy was simply in a tough spot and got behind and would eventually pay it back. After these recent revelations, it appears this was definitely systematic behavior. Usually I defend the little guy, but there is no defense here whatsoever.
Im buying the rights to this saga.
Apparently Jasep just quit that MMA game one day without telling anybody. Kinda pissed some people off. Someone made a memorial t-shirt. I tried and tried to find a larger version, but to no avail...

"Juan stole 408's door" wins best tag ever.
So let me see if this timeline looks right:
- Pre-2010: John is working at Verizon and dabbling in daily poker tournaments; he also plays an online game called MMA Tycoon
- sometime in 2010 he gets into a car accident and recieves some type of settlement
- He gets invlved with real MMA promotions (about as profitiable as a live $2/$4 limit holdem game) and ends up owing some people a little bit of coin --somewhere along the way he meets AJ from BSA but the two originally have an MMA clothing line called Butcher Shop
- He returns to MMATycoon in late 2010 as well as his first appearance at Donkdown in early 2011 (sees donkdown radio has sponsors and gets an idea)
- Filthy Limper is born and BSA is sponsoring the show despite it being extremely small in the beginning
So, here are the questions:
Did Jasep own part of BSA and they were just saying BSA was an advertiser to look more appealing ot other advertisers?
Does Jasep still owe these MMA guys money?
Maybe Kevin or Tim could verify this accident he always talks about and if he was involved in MMA promotions beyond what we've seen
Is this real life?
After learning that Johnny had a partner named Anthony in an MMA clotihng company I 'm starting to think he was part owner of BSA with AJ, and the whole sponsorship of Filthy Limper was a sham (to entice other sponsors and give the show some credibility) just speculation, but what are the chances he is involved in two different clothing companies with a partner named Anthony?
Maybe the MMA thing blows up in their face and they resurface as a poker company. From what I can tell the Butcher Shop clothing line was a zazzle company or something, but the BSA is far more professional (maybe they used the money they scammed from MMA to do BSA right?) Again just specualtion
I am sure this is all a big misunderstanding.
Any information that Drexel or another who is in touch with the RI authorities can present and which tends to show that Jasep is either a recidivist/serial offender or otherwise poses an ongoing risk to the public is very significant. Without knowing the individuals involved there every Probation Officer and Assistant DA is buried with files and anything you can show them that pushes Jasep's file up to the top makes it that much more likely they will take some action to shut him down or bring him in.....
80 % of men in providence are named anthony but worth looking into obv as in anything at this point.
Couple things that don't add up.
1. Sep just randomly meets this guy A.J. and convinces him to sponsor some podcast that was brand new and was dull (pre-Brandon) and he just signs a whatever year deal (1-2 I don't even know) for $300 per month.
2. Was filthy limper sponsored by Blind Squirrel right off the start?
3. When Zac Hart approached A.J. about not sponsoring VPR Sep had this info right away. It is possible that he is tight with the guy but he seemed to know the details.
But at the same time he did ask me/Brandon to keep quiet about calling Zac out publicly.
Looking back on this now Zac Hart turned out to be right that someone @ VPR was a scammer but at the time he was just making it up.
Also possible Sep didn't want people digging for anything if we did call out Zac publicly for calling VPR opwners scammers.
Lot off things to speculate on but I am leaning toward the T-Shirt thing NOT being a coincidence and it is probably tied in somehow
I don't know how you track results for online poker these days (apparently PTR doesn't work for Stars anymore), but it looks like Jaseps handle on Stars was JohnnySep. Might be interesting to see what his results looked like. As far I can tell he was playing online as far back as 2008.
Maybe the public perception would be, and maybe if you owed to a bookie back east, but anyone in the poker community knows, (pretty sure I'm semi-quoting azzclown here) it is just a bunch of pussies.
Lederer wouldn't be walking around town if he ripped off MMA fighters instead of poker players.
I just checked both of these and couldn't get much detailed information without a paid account. It sucks because I actually have a paid account at PTR. Heh.
OPR has data on JohnnySep going back to 2007, though. Didn't Jasep say that he only started playing online around 2010?
looks like they could have met here:
Anthony Denicco Hendonmob
16-Jun-2010
$ 170 No Limit Hold'em
2010 Borgata Summer Poker Open, Atlantic City
John Sepulveda and Juan both have Hendon Mob databases, and I'm pretty certain he was talking about 2010 Borgata Summer Open as the genesis of Filthy Limper --something about a car ride if I recall correctly
don't know if this helps...from 2+2

It's just too bad we never saw the article regarding his arrest before the BAP but nobody felt any need to search him. This has been posted already as it's been numerously stated in here about his identity theft but I don't remember where in this long ass thread it was so:
http://johnston.patch.com/articles/p...eb-7-to-feb-10
I wonder if their is any way to contact this Rachel Pineda to see what she has to say regarding Johnny's character or if she would even be willing to talk as it might just include painful memories of stuff like this?Quote:
Identity Fraud Arrest
John A. Sepulveda, 30, of 19 Warren Ave., North Providence, was arrested and charged with felony identity fraud.
On Aug. 31, 2010 Rachel Pineda went to the Johnston Police headquarters to report an identity theft that took place in 2009. Pineda told the police that she received a call from a collection agency trying to collect $1,088 for a loan that was in her name, according to the police report. The loan agent provided Pineda with the contact email address that was used on the loan application, along with the mailing address.
The mailing address was for a vacant residence next door to hers. The email address belonged to Pineda’s ex-boyfriend, Sepulveda. An arrest warrant was issued for Sepulveda after he agreed to make a full payment on the loan and neglected to do so twice. He was released on $2,500 personal recognizance.
So he seems to have a good track record of using this screen-nameQuote:

I have a few questions for HeroCEO...
Firstly, I signed up for Hero Poker last Sunday because I read on twitter that you were doing a 15k US Player Free roll.. After I registered I sent an email to support 5 hours prior to the tournament with the subject line... Urgent New Player Question, in the body of the email I requested information and a password for that tournament... 7 days later I have still not received a response.
Once I realized that I would not be getting a response I took to twitter and made a thread right here on Donk Down requesting the password and didn't get any response either, its mildly irritating now that I know you were lurking and a few days away from sponsoring the very forum I asked for info on.
Thats not really why I am writing though, see I signed up last Sunday, but I never did rake back before (only played on stars) and if I knew DD was going to be an affiliate I would have signed up through them, so my question is... since I haven't even sat at a game yet can my account be converted to give micon and druff credit and give me RB??
Also, can you transfer funds player to player on merge (have never played merge) if so, everyone give me about a month to see how the Hero process goes and i can do deposits for you all via a player transfer and you purchasing a greendot money pack... same way i used to do on stars through 2+2...
anyway, let me know please.... if I cannot get my account converted based on new developments and last weeks CS bedshit than I will probably just screw around in the radio-a-ment and thats about it...
Thanks... my screen name is TrupQQ by the way
wasnt his old twitter trupqq or something along the lines of that as well
