    In case you guys were looking forward to another Postle apperance in ZOOM court tomorrow, you'll be disappointed. It appears that the court itself continued the Veronica Brill attorneys fees hearing until June 16, for unspecified reasons.

    Item 19 2020-00286265-CU-DF Michael Postle vs. Veronica Brill
    Motion for Attorney Fees

    On the Court's own motion, this matter is continued to 6/16/2021 at 01:30PM in this department.
    While Postle himself was responsible for previous delays, it looks like this one was the court's own action, and this continuance was requested by neither Postle nor Brill.

    Zero point Zero chance of collecting anything. He's broke and I believe can file bankruptcy on the attorney fees.

    Be a great question to ask bennsmoking on next show.

    Remember legendary 2000s-era Pokerstars player "stevesbets"? He has since moved from pro poker to law, and is now a New York attorney. He recently started a law-related podcast, aimed primarily at the layman.

    I appeared on this show, which was recorded a week ago, and just posted today. It's all about this situation, and the legal issues surrounding it.

    Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/2BVkbLVVy8kdYQ5lSkd5sA

    iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcas...=1000523374532

    You can also play it through the show's webpage (which uses Soundcloud). I'm on Episode 6: https://www.herbertsmithfreehills.co...n-gambling-law

    I will briefly mention this on radio tonight, but I'm not going to play it.

    The first 22 minutes are mostly me talking about myself, my background, and explaining live streams. You might find that boring, especially since most of you already know all that stuff. So you won't lose a lot if you skip to the 22 minute mark. The entire show is 97 minutes.

    How does it work in US?

    Are you entitled to get Postle´s money before Veronica (when she wins her case)

    Right now, yes, we have the only judgment, so she can't collect. Once she gets a judgment, I believe it's whoever makes a specific collection effort first. But don't quote me on that.

    In Sweden we can just send the debt to government authority (the enforcement office). And they collect for you

    Who’s gonna publish Michael Lawrence Postle’s arrest record? Or Harrah’s ban?

    Unfortunately, while I'm sure a lot of people would love to pile on Postle here, I don't find this woman very credible.

    First off, Postle has full custody of their kid. So obviously she had a lot of "issues" for that to be the case. It's not like he's the ideal parent with a stable lifestyle, so for him to be the parent given full custody, there's obviously something wrong with her.

    Her story was also very inconsistent and all over the place. I also found a few contradictions. I'm sure there were some elements of truth in there, but I'm sure there were plenty of outright inaccuracies, as well.

    I also don't believe that Moneymaker was helping Postle cheat at any time, and her own accounts of this seemed very contradictory (at one point she said that Chris had a lot of integrity.)

    This whole thing had potential, and I know Veronica tried hard to get the woman on track, but I have to file this thing in the hearsay category and move on.

    In before Postles ex and potentially Veronica get sued by Moneymaker for defamation. She might wanna keep Rendazas number handy she might need it. Veronicas exposure is only slight but one might argue she should’ve vetted that accusation some before putting it out on YouTube. Just my .02.

    Also in before a porn company offers the two of them big money for a lesbian scene. If Larry Flynt were alive, he'd make it happen.

    The ex-wife said that Postle is not tech savvy. If that's true, then how did he pull off this scam without inside help?

    There were some potentially good judgment collection nuggets in the video.

    It's a bad interview. She doesn't come across well. She can't remember names and gets simple details wrong. She implied that Moneymaker was involved in cheating with Postle on Pokerstars. It's a mess.

    Then she released this video on Twitter to snap back at people "hating" on her and she sounds drunk:



    Then there's this guy (who appears to be a Postle defender) who has been sharing this mugshot. It suggests Postle's ex was recently arrested (01/05/2021) for driving drunk with her two children in the car.



    Is it legit? If so, yikes.

    Moneymaker's statement, from 2+2:

    saw the videos and still have no idea what I am accused of. I knew mike from tunica where we played 2-5. We spoke but not often, not sure how we were besties. My wife has never met him and I have never met this lady. Did not talk to him outside of the poker game. He moved years ago and never spoke to him or knew where he moved too. Did my first appearance at Stones and he was there and we reconnected. We talked more often once reconnecting and I was going to Stones for appearances and to play in that insane game. Went on a "field trip" with about 5 players and Justin to San Francisco during that time, was the only time we were ever social off the poker table.

    He called me the day Veronica broke the story and I went to bat for him as I did not think he was cheating in the games when we played together. Been cheated in two games and figured it out, did not feel like it when we played. Once I saw all the evidence I distanced myself from him. We had a text message exchange probably a year ago about the documentary and wanting me to be involved somehow. He reached out again to me today to apologize but I did not know for what. Pretty much sums it up.

    This woman isn’t the brightest bulb, clearly has some issues she’s dealing with, has poor communicating skills,etc. However, I did find her credible in most cases. I believe the steak story and the mirror story. I believe when she talks about Postle she is describing the guy I’ve always thought of him to be.

    When she says I know he and “Moneymaker” are still close because Postle told her so, she is showing that she is just not a critical thinker. I’m sure she has no idea how reputable Moneymaker’s name is in poker and how it would benefit Mike to program her to believe he has always had his back & that the two are close. I think she just has been filled with a lot of gunk from Mike and unfortunately that showed up very poorly in that segment of the interview. I do not think her intention was to disparage Moneymaker, but that is what happened.

    Not everyone makes a great witness but she is the witness. Veronica has to take what she can get. She can’t say “sorry you aren’t the best interview so we’re just not going to do it”. It does appear that she has things that would be used against her in a cross examination. My gut is she was telling the truth in most cases or what she believed to be the truth.

    I think Veronica would completely edit out any mention of Moneymaker before letting the interview air if she could do it again. Contact Chris before this aired and clarify this matter before letting it fly. I like Veronica and may be a bit biased… I will admit. But I think conducting the interview was the right call.

    The most telling thing was the text messages that are posted in the last minute of the video.

    Makes Mike out to be a real manipulative bastard.

    There's no doubt that this chick has a lot of issues, and at the very least, her memory seems somewhat faulty.

    This becomes a problem when you're believing stories, especially ones from over 10 years ago.

    It's easy to believe the person criticizing an unsympathetic character (which Postle definitely is), but I always like to take an honest and critical look at everything.

    In this case, it's tough to figure out, as I believe Postle is a piece of shit, but I also think this chick has lots of problems and isn't a reliable source of info. So you have a case where you have an unreliable person telling stories about someone you can easily picture doing bad things. In such cases, I tend to just discard everything if it's just too hard to tell.

    I agree with Belly, though. The most interesting part is the text messages, which unless faked, are pretty telling.
