Poker Twitter is claiming that Eric Persson didn't like being trolled and had a player removed from the Hustler Casino Live game. Eric wasn't even in the game.

at this point, any 'controversy' that happens on hustler casino live cannot be taken seriously.

its all manufactured drama from well-known real estate scammer nick vertucci and his team of shady degenerates.

I don't know if this was staged or not. I guess Batman and Persson appeared on Nick Vertucci's show to each give their side.

On a side note, I am guessing that Persson does roids.

Go to 22:13 to hear Vertucci confirm that he booted Batman at Persson's request. Bad precedent.

Eric's explanation starts at 0:54

So I watched some of this trainwreck show.

Persson is claiming that he wasn't mad about Batman's gag about the Persson tip jar, but rather was angry that when he talked trash back via the chat room, and paid $100 to have it appear prominently via "Super Chat" (on YouTube), he found his messages removed by Hustler Casino Live mods.

So he says his issue was with Ryan Feldman, but claimed he already resolved it, as Ryan claimed it was done by an unknown chat mod, and it won't happen again.

I call bullshit. If that were the case, he wouldn't have demanded Batman being off the stream, but rather just demanded they stop deleting his messages. Here it appears he demanded both.

He also seems super pissed at Batman in general, and feels Batman is manufacturing a rivalry with him in order to build up his own name. This is probably true, but that's what happens when you're one of the better known players on the stream. Nobody is forcing Eric to play on these streams and get all this publicity.

Overall Eric is coming off as a whiner and a crybaby. Who cares if Batman wants to do these stupid gags about him? Just let it happen and ignore it, if you don't want to play along. I was neutral on him coming into this whole thing, but my opinion has declined after this incident.
