After the monkey shit flinging in that one thread I havent seen him after Druff banned him from the PFA went down thread.
Druff filed a restraining order
Can’t post
Judges orders
Part of his relapse prevention plan and should not be mocked.
I hope he's getting the help he needs.
Martin,
Call upon Jesus and you will be delivered from the misery.
Peace to you.
for the LAST time
aside from a minor lapse a few weeks ago…
I’m not drinking, nor do I do any other drugs, or have a substance abuse problem in any way, shape, or form
the simple fact is that this sorry ass site is a poisonous toxic shithole
I may or may not redefine the meaning of the phrase ‘buckle up’ and make Druff my bitch just like I have countless times before
the next time he calls me with panic and desperation in his voice begging for me to remove content from YouTube, I won’t be so cooperative
for now I have a lot on my plate, and can’t be bothered engaging with a dysfunctional autistic egomaniacal socially awkward repulsive human being like Rainman
I will say that if the rest of you knew some of the things I know, your jaws would collectively drop
if and when I decide to unleash the kraken I won’t be doing it on this ghost town, and there is no upside whatsoever for me to contribute here under these circumstances
some of you (especially Todd) have conveniently forgotten who the fuck you’re dealing with
peace out
Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out
(Mickeycrimm ready to step up in your place..)
:to
You are a great character and spice this place up.
But if this place is a poisonous toxic shithole, you are a main contributor to that.
Stick around.
quick follow up…
there are certain elements of my longstanding beef with Todd which none of you have ever heard about because they are extremely embarrassing for him
that is just a fact
I agreed to remove a specific video from YouTube after he contacted ME in an a panic
I’m not interested in perpetuating a flame war because it’s boring for everybody and I thought we were at least on civil terms
What I don’t appreciate is being lied about and slandered without being afforded the opportunity to respond
Todd has historically insisted on a home field advantage or maintaining some of edge when it concerns head to head battles
This tactic is similar to simply removing the opposition like whats currently happening in our current clusterfuck political season
If you are being truthful, you don’t fear going toe to toe with your adversary
As for the infamous restraining order he filed against me a couple of years ago…
It was a laughing stock and quickly dismissed because there was simply zero substance to it whatsoever
I could tell the entire story in full detail but I’m certain that Todd would either redact it, lock the thread, or just simply ban me from PFA again
also I would much rather put it all in my rear view mirror just as much as he does, but it kept coming up on this site so here we are
On a positive note, of course I am appreciative that he helped facilitate the 777 event stake, but these are two completely unrelated issues
Finally, if I wanted to cripple his reputation and come after him with a new site or start pounding the poker world on Twitter it would be very simple
what I don’t appreciate is being dismissed as some random common troll when there is 20 years of history here which involve a lot of various players
Todd does a lot of quality work uncovering scandals and fraud that goes without saying
But removing someone me or anyone else from a heated dialogue/debate is just stacking the deck, and a huge bitch move in general
I have been MORE than gracious and accommodating when it concerns holding back on a lot of very juicy shit regarding Todd’s behavior and tactics over the years
lets just leave it at that shall we ?
Oh final note…
His ‘attorney’ Eric Bensamochan is a fucking clown how did that guy ever even pass the bar what a complete schlub lol
Martin
Let's look at the facts here.
You keep whining that I am censoring or suppressing your speech. I am not. You came out and stated that I "lost" the restraining order case, and that you were doing me a "favor" by not telling people the story.
Both of these things are false. I offered that you could tell the entire story, and I promised not to redact or censor anything.
Instead you kept demanding I start up emergency radio to do it with you on air -- which is bizarre because most of the radio audience doesn't know you, and the people who know you are all on the forum. Plus you brought it up on the forum. So do it on the forum.
I explained the TRUTH about what hapened with the restraining order, and then you called me a liar. I offered over and over and over for you to point out a single lie or inaccuracy in my story, and you just kept ignoring that. Instead you kept ranting about how you needed to be on radio.
Once again, the floor is yours here. Tell everyone the full restraining order story. Tell everyone where I lied about it. I won't censor anything, other than personal identifying info.
You don't want to do this because you know I'm telling the truth, and you don't want to look stupid for bragging that you "won" the whole thing.
One more thing, Martin.
While I was not dumb enough to believe that your usual unsolicited attacking of me here wasn't inevitable at some point, I was hopeful that maybe -- just maybe -- it would finally end.
I did not contact you in a "panic". I saw you were making retarded videos about me on Twitter which nobody was watching, and I thought about the fact that we are two men in our 50s fighting out an old beef from the 2000s. Almost all of this originates from your end -- both then and now. I just react to it occasionally and respond.
But I thought that rather than going through another round 16 years after it all began, we could just bury everything and be done. The phone call I had with you was good, especially because you hadn't been drinking, so you could speak coherently. The meetup in person we had for the $777 thing was also good.
Unfortunately, as what always happens here, you started to drink again, plus let whatever other stresses you have spill over into the forum, and for some reason that always results in random attacks against me. Note that I am not ever doing this to you, and have treated you with respect here. You can say all you want, "I'm not trolling...", but everyone here can see that you're clearly back to your angry trolling routine.
I can't even make a post about the PFA server having problems without bringing out your ire.
Take a look in the mirror. Look at how I've been treating you here since you came back (respectfully), and look how you've been treating me (very nasty). If you don't believe me, ask everyone observing.
You’re right Todd…
I admit I just made everything up to get my rocks off and pick a fight with you out of the blue for no apparent reason
there is no truth at all in anything I just mentioned
your version is completely accurate and I just lied about everything to cover my tracks
You’re a saint and I’m just a lowly troll living in my moms basement cooking crystal meth in her bathtub
my sincere apologies your majesty
There isn't truth in anything you mentioned.
There is not now, nor has there ever been, a "7 second delay" on NWP/DD/PFA radio.
You have never been censored on radio when you appeared there.
It is not the case that I can only do "basic html" and pretend to be able to code.
It is not the case that Mark Seif, Bryan Micon, and Mason Malmuth are itching to speak out against me, but they can't because they're not on PFA.
It is not the case that I lost a restraining order case against you, but rather that it was reported to me by the process server that you could not be served, so I didn't bother to show up to the second hearing. It was then auto-dismissed, but could be re-filed at any time.
These are all things you have said about me since returning to PFA 6 months ago, and you have refused tor retract any of it, even when I took the time to clarify. You have certain idiotic narratives in your head which you refuse to reconsider.
Again, let's just focus on the restaining order thing. Tell the crowd one lie I posted about it. Or tell your own version of the story. You refuse to do these things because you know I'm correct, but you went around bragging to people like sidedish for the past 2 years that you "won", so you feel like you need to stick to that BS story.
:lol2
See this is exactly what I’m talking about
oh btw…
nobody was watching my ‘retarded’ video because I never publicly posted it other than ONCE on Twitter while you were getting Jaffe’d and caught wind of it
kinda weird how you immediately filed a complaint with YouTube and called me for the first time in 3 years at the exact time you were getting demolished by the entire poker community right about the same time you did something nobody has ever witnessed in 20 years
apologizing
again, I did you a huge favor so please stop pretending otherwise it’s very insulting Todd
secondly…
nobody was ‘bragging’ about anything. I mentioned your restraining order epic failure a grand total of ONCE to thesidedish, and he started a one liner thread here while I was banned and you subsequently fired up the spin machine
we went over all of this on the phone 6 months ago and now you have the gall to STILL deflect any blame for losing in a big way
unbelievable man
your weak ass ‘civil restrainer order’ was not dismissed because of a failure to serve me
It was quickly tossed in the trashcan because of your failure to appear plain and simple
my guess is your dumbass ambulance chasing ‘attorney’ realized the law degree he found in a crackerjack box had expired
I was the one who showed up locked and loaded
you did not
truth be told I was very disappointed because I had two pages of the shit you have pulled with me over the years itemized point by point
oh and tell your expert civil law Saul Goodman wannabee the next time he files a ‘civil restraining order’ he better at least understand what the fuck the definition of one is
can we move on now please Todd ?
I do realize the mere concept of admitting defeat is a foreign concept to your dysfunctional brain, but quit making shit up
shalom
I am willing to move on and put this to bed
truthfully, I never had any intention to rehash any of this in the first place until Sloppy Joe, Nicky Pipes and a few others here started to post about it and you started chiming in with half-truths intended to save face
there was no ‘second hearing’ holy shit Druff
lol ‘civil restraining order’ give me a fucking break
also not sure why your even mentioning Micon or Mark Seif I never even mentioned either one of them, nor did I say or imply anything you mentioned about them refusing to engage with you
I didn’t say a single word about 7 second delays on NWP or any of that other shit you are apparently using as a mechanism to deflect from my core criticisms or issues with your tactics
seriously enough already this is exhausting and boring no need to dredge any of this up again but we can go there if you insist
you may be a conflict addict, but I’m truly not interested in rebooting this drama I have too much other shit on my plate right now
Martin, everyone on this forum can verify that any "conflict" started here in the past 6 months was instigated by you, not me.
There were two restraining order hearings. I attended the first one after it was told to me that you avoided service. I attended by Zoom. I did get to hear a lol case of some woman asking for a restraining order against her neighbor because they had an ongoing feud going which started because she left her trashcans out too long.
Anyway, the judge said he had record that you were not served, and asked if I had you served at any point. I stated that I had not, and that you had avoided service, and referred him to the documents indicating that. He reviewed the documents and agreed you had likely avoided service, but said that there is no legal mechanism in California to compel you to appear in a restraining order case if you have not been served. My options at that point were to either drop it, or to schedule a second hearing a few months later. I chose to schedule a second hearing.
I then attempted to have you served a second time. Again, I was told you avoided service. However, in those few months in between, you had completely ceased contact, which was my goal in the first place. I could have had you served via a PI or someone else very good at it, but that would have cost me more than I wanted to spend on this, and since you hadn't contacted me in awhile, I figured I'd just give up. I did not show up to the second hearing because I was sure it would be the same result as the first -- being told that I have to either reschedule or drop it.
Unbeknownst to me, you had received a letter and chose to show up to the second one. Had I known that, I would have shown up. But I was sure you wouldn't be there and hadn't been served, so I no-showed and let it get dismissed.
That's the 100% truth.
So nobody "won" here because it was never heard in court.
I am happy to drop this matter, and if you notice, you brought it up, not me.
:popcorn
two words…
CASE DISMISSED
the words spoken by the ruling judge when you failed to show up
yea I’m pretty sure that means you lost
there was no ‘first hearing’ if there was I sure as hell would have heard about it
I was living in a luxury apartment building in downtown Sacramento called Capitol Towers in plain sight and hardly ‘hiding behind the door’ as you previously claimed
I came home after work to find a business card from the Sacramento Sheriffs Department stuck to my door and IMMEDIATELY contacted them confirming my court appearance eager to address your hollow and baseless charges against me
I appreciate the effort Todd, but if you’re gonna file a ‘civil restraining order’ against someone, at the very least show up for your own case
oh and maybe invest a little money in hiring a decent attorney who doesn’t generate more income delivering for DoorDash than from his own failed law practice
Not sure what angle Tyde is playing here. Druff was on record back in the day the restraining order was not followed through on by the Judge and Druff elected not to pursue it any further because the contact Tyde was making had ceased. Druff was very clear, there was no winner or loser, he was not on here bragging and he was the not the one that brought it up. Not every court case has a winner or loser, most are just dropped like this one.
With all that said, Tyde you never had any issue in July when you used Druff's site to get a WSOP stake, and Druff was kind enough to take time out of his day, and his money for that matter until it was received, to meet you at the RIO to hand it to you. That had to be a huge fucking pain for Druff. He had to go to the ATM or cash in chips, set a time aside and find you at the RIO. He probably did not want to do it, but it was a gesture. And you return him with this. LOL.
I'd rather you channel your energy to the upcoming Republican primaries and caucuses then dredging up ancient shit, Druff is right something that happened three years ago is not radio worthy. I have not listened to a radio segment in 10 years, but if I randomly tuned in and Druff was talking about a message board beef from 3 years ago I would [x] off, its just not interesting Tyde. It might be to you, but nobody else.
bottomset your reading and comprehension skills could use some fine tuning
I’ve stated multiple times I had no intention of regurgitating this episode, but when it was brought up several times by sloppy joe and brother pipes, and commented on/dismissed by Druff, I felt compelled to respond and clarify some facts
no need to perpetuate this any longer I’m more than happy to put this to bed once and for all
but I’ll certainly plead my case when I feel the facts haven’t been presented accurately
anyway…
hows the coccyx bud ?
Martin
If I prove there was a first hearing, will you admit you were completely wrong about all of this?
The process server, who worked for the county, emailed that you would not agree to come out to accept service. Is that a lie? Why would they tell me that if not true?
And yes I know all about Capitol Towers. I’m the one who found you there. Wasn’t easy btw. You were mostly doing a good job keeping that address private.
not sure why it ‘wasn’t easy’ to find me
literally zero effort whatsoever was made to keep my location private
the lease was in my name
all utility bills in my name
car registration in my name
I am not now, then, or ever making any covert attempts to keep my location or addresses private because I have no reason to
I don’t know how else to say this Todd
if there was a ‘first hearing’ then this is the first time I’m hearing about it
perhaps the county process server was either highly incompetent or just simply lying I have no clue, but I will say that I definitely did not ‘refuse to come out to accept service’ of any kind
there is a slight possibility I may have just tossed a letter from the county without opening it, but I was certainly not ‘dodging’ any court appearance notices
case closed
one thing you and I have in common is that we align politically for the most part, so lets focus on blasting the fuck out of these toxic liberal pieces of trash destroying this country
Totally unbiased here, but why is this issue still be discussed? I mean correct me if I am wrong but I thought this was in the rear view mirror when you two met up in July. I blocked Sloppy Joe a month ago because he had the same old schtick: trolling and relentlessly boring, how I was drinking myself to death, ignoring my kids, dying of alcoholism, etc.. It was the same shit every day I just had enough. Just block these fucker(s) and don't give them oxygen.
just answering Druff’s question about my place at Capitol Towers
anyway here’s a video you’ve never seen bottomset
almost 3 years to the day
https://youtu.be/h4J735U3aEA?si=MDWDgMbm7gE30WWe
obv I was still boozing heavily
this was peak scamdemic if I’m not mistaken and I was in a pretty fucked up place mentally just sitting at home getting wasted everyday
eventually a few months later I just donated all my furniture to the Catholic church, sold my big screen on craigslist and bounced for San Diego
my place was nice, but downtown Sacramento despite being my hometown is a wasteland of hipsters and liberal scumbags and I had to get the fuck out of there
one of the best decisions of my life
bottomset just take it one day at a time dude
my little glitch a few weeks ago was rooted in depression triggered by how this country is getting flushed down the toilet, but I’m back to being alcohol free and it beats being drunk and pissed off all day long
take solice in the fact that you have a lot of company so just remind yourself of that when you feel the urge to start throwing them back
No offense bro, but that shit looks like 1000X better than that video you posted in July 2023 sleeping in the parking lot in Vegas because you needed money to get your eyes fixed.
Not being judgemental but your life looked pretty good nursing those fireballs. I think poker did you in, not the bottle.
But whatever. Glad you are feeling better, but that was a nice apartment you showed.
bottomset when are you going to comprehend the simple fact that material possessions, ‘things’ or social status mean less than nothing to me
I’ve lived in luxury apartments and been flushed with cash many times in my life
I’ve also been broke as shit sleeping in my car with 10 bucks to my name
life is short
none of that matters to me now or then and never will
poker has never been my ‘downfall’ because I’m a consistent winner overall and still enjoy playing when it doesn’t become a grind
I’ve struggled with severe depression for a variety of reasons since as long as I can remember
I was miserable in that apartment
Its funny you mention poker being my downfall because I’ve been semi-considering moving back to Mexico or maybe living in Brazil to get back on PokerStars again since this country is turning to shit in a hurry
As much as I love Carlsbad/Oceanside in north county San Diego, the cost of living is out of control and it’s getting more and more difficult to sustain a comfortable lifestyle
I still enjoy poker but never go broke because of it…booze has always been the key factor trust me
anyway yea my place there was nice but who gives a fuck…who was I trying to impress ?
I’m much happier with a dog by my side, a little herb, living walking distance to the beach
money is just a big pain in the ass as far as I’m concerned…a necessary evil we are stuck with in a society that demands we live our lives as slaves to buy shit we don’t need
My point was Tyde that was a ballin' apartment regardless of your status or income or age, or whatever. I was just like WTF did you leave for? Seems odd you just always pack up and move in the middle of the night. Now if you are blaming it on mental duress well that is something only you can answer but I am not sure why a single guy would leave an apartment like that voluntarily. Unless of course you got behind on your rent.
Whatever, it does not matter, but a piece of advice you are fucking nuts if you migrate to Brazil or Central Mexico at age 60 playing online poker. You get sick, you'll be on a street corner getting kicked in the head as an American. That is just nutty talk moving to play poker at age 60.
Never understood why you have never camped out on a beach side town and tended bar. You'd be a good bartender and could make a fortune in tips bullshitting with patrons, you'd be around booze all the time and probably would convince yourself its not a good idea to return to the bottle when you saw endless ruined guy leaving hammered falling down.
You really have only one more good run before father time calls a marker, going to Mexico playing against a bunch of 20 year old math guys on Stars is a disaster.
lol dude I’m free rolling life anyway
made it this far after a 1/2 a dozen close calls and dodged the bullet on multiple occasions (literally)
kind of hard to take life seriously anymore all things considered
As far as Mexico or Brazil goes, I’ve spent plenty of time in both countries and speak Spanish adequately enough to get by
I’m not stupid enough to move to ‘central Mexico’ like Juarez or Sinaloa that would be a suicide mission for a gringo like me
it would most likely be back in Ensenada…Baja is very safe for expats provided you don’t go out at 3 in the morning looking for crystal meth and hookers and just respect the culture and don’t do stupid shit or put yourself in compromising positions
I lived in Mexico for almost 3 years and never felt like I was in any danger whatsoever
Brazil would be a bit riskier but fuck it…the women are the sexiest in the world and the people are super friendly
In a couple more years I’ll most likely start collecting SS and my monthly would be about $2200.00 a month which is more than enough to live comfortably
Also I just said I was entertaining the idea I haven’t made any concrete plans so don’t assume I’m just gonna pack up on a wing and a prayer
as far as poker goes
nigga please
I don’t trip on those 20 something solver nerds…my game is just as sharp as any of those dorks
my favorite poker vid from when I was on Stars in Mexico
good times lol
