    Still, there are some words being used to describe Ms. Brill that my father would have smacked the taste out of my mouth for using, and he's actually a misogynist, so that's saying something.

    Let's not forget we're talking about someone who, most likely, still reads here.

    I don't know what other issues Brill is referring to, and don't care, but I don't see how calling out Jami Lafay makes Druff a misogynist. I guess the litmus test is whether or not he'd have called out a man for doing the same thing.

    And, if anyone answers, "A man wouldn't do that," then you're probably a misogynist. Men can grift just as well as women can.

    Like I said on Lafay, probably not the hill I would have picked, but it did inspire an article about GoFundMe scams/grifts, in general, so I thank Druff for that.

    One thing about Lafay that is defensible is that she seemed to ask for help from the poker community, specifically. Given that she, as a poker player, as with all poker players, as with me as a gambling writer and gambler...are all worthless human beings who contribute nothing of value to society, at least her plea wasn't a general one targeting people that she couldn't even be argued as having a positive social impact on.

    I can't believe this sort of virtue-signaling and cancel culture in the poker, or gambling, community of all places.

    Brill, get the fuck over yourself.

    We're all equally worthless pieces of fucking trash who, 'Earn,' our living in a way that contributes absolutely nothing to society and does exactly nothing to further this country. One and all, we are unnecessary pariahs who have no professional value whatsoever because our occupations have no social utility. We may or may not have value in other ways, but what we do for a living makes any such value largely irrelevant.

    So, I really don't see any reason to try to prop oneself up with this sort of virtue signaling in order to signal to the rest of the gambling community, who are also all pieces of shit, including me, that you are one of the least smelly pieces of shit.

    What a joke!

    Thank you for the compliment!

    I can be found on Wizard of Vegas, some Wizard of Odds pages, Latest Casino Bonuses and RealMoneyAction (though only state listing pages on there).

    Here's a link to the GoFundMe article:

    Good article. Nice easy to read style. The undercurrent of cynicism appeals to me

    Do you think controversy might evoke more passion amongst those inclined to give? That controversy could be a benefit?

    I will check out your other articles.

    To say I'm disappointed in Veronica's recent behavior toward me would be an understatement.

    I was extremely supportive to her during the Postle matter, both publicly and privately, and in return she makes this bullshit plea to the community to deplatform me.

    What's especially bizarre about this is the fact that she does a show with someone who also has been in hot water recently for his own controversial remarks. So when Nick Vertucci is raked over the coals by the Twitter mob, Veronica is silent, and keeps doing the show with him. When it's me, she acts like I should be a pariah and tells everyone to unfollow me.

    The difference? Nick Vertucci is useful to her right now, and I'm not.

    Shameful.

    Hopefully this “controversy” blows over long before the WSOP.

    No distractions allowed for your investors.

    Apparently Lindsey is a nice woman, and is well liked around Vegas. That's what I'm hearing from people, but I never had any interaction with her personally.

    I do feel bad about the thread. She was the innocent party in that story (where a dude was rude to her at the table), and I should have just stuck to discussing that element, and not gone into the whole backstory about her lifestyle. I wasn't trying to be malicious or insulting. It was just my habit of trying to give the readers the complete picture of everything going on. However, since she was the victim in this situation, and her reputation in the community was good, I should have stayed away from anything which could come off as judgmental. So I can understand why the thread upset her, and why her friends were upset by it.

    I wish I could go back 3 months and have written it differently, and not just because of the mob going after me right now.

    The main point of this site is to call out the shitty people/companies in poker and gambling, and to help out the innocent people screwed by them. I don't want to hurt innocent people, so I need to be more mindful regarding what I write sometimes. This doesn't apply to people who purposely post material on social media to cause controversy, or people who write ridiculous shit, but neither of these apply to Lindsey, who was not tweeting for notoriety or clicks.

    So I do wish I could take it back, and I'm going to try to avoid doing things like this in the future.

    Lindsey, if you read this, I apologize. I am not posting this on Twitter because I don't wish to feed the sanctimonious mob, but I do apologize to you and your friends who were rightfully upset by my post.

    Lol yes, I probably mentioned it.

    It's actually a relevant thing to mention because I don't want people unfamiliar with the site believing I was posting any of this for clicks or profit.

    Here there is no profit to be had, since it's a non-monetized site, and I am not selling any product or service.

    Jaffe is a nobody trying to make himself into a somebody, it will never happen. Almost no poker personality can become someone no matter how hard they try, which is why they bring in influencers to play in games, otherwise who is really watching, the same small core of people. It won’t work long term due to how dull live poker is, Polk had to goad Negreanu to get his tiny amount of fame.

    Jaffe is Clearly jealous of Thomas and his talent, what video is he crying about anyhow?

    Brothers I made the terrible mistake of listen to the first bit of Whining Will's "Twitter Space" with Dan Druff.

    Brothers you should not expose yourself to this type of content. It is not good for a man's mind.

    Brothers I felt a serious "negative" "impact" from listening to Whimpy Will bitch and moan for an hour.

    Brothers you understand I am not "exposed" to "this" "type" of "character" in my daily life. Never meet them, never hear from them. Never even seen them around pal.

    Brothers I will not make this same mistake again.

    brother nicky first you tell us that you never sun your balls and then you confess that you listened to a twitter space about poker drama for an hour.

    zero chance your pack of dingos still considers you a viable master right now, i urge you to drink top shelf scotch at them wearing nothing but a pair of dirty socks until they understand who pays the goddamned bills.

    Jaffe suffers from Trump Derangement Syndrome. He got triggered a few weeks ago and tweeted about Trump. He's gonna turn into a virtue signaling feminist by year end. Bonomo 2.0.

    Good summation Todd and spot on accurate. You were so nice to her and supported her and then she goes and tries to get the whole poker community to shun you? To me she's just an evil bitch. Also agree about your Vertucci comment at the end. He's useful to her right now so she would still support him if the cops showed up and arrested him for a violent armed robbery no joke! You on the other hand have no use for her so if you got a speeding ticket she'd be all over twitter claiming you're a dangerous driver and a criminal.

    I know you probably won't because I feel like the whole Jamie thing has made you a lot more weary to confront women(in my opinion of course), but I think you should call her ass out on twitter and/or on here. She's a disgusting vile nasty woman.

    Too bad Druff is going to lose all his advertisers.

    Brill is closer to menopause than the age of the kids she is "supporting."

    This is nice of you to do so publicly, Druff. What happened was blown up into a huge issue I guess because that's what people like to do nowadays. People who listen to the show know you've been respectful of women and that you didn't mean any harm. I listened to the recording on Twitter. These people were out for your neck long before you came onto the show and were acting as though you had committed some great sin by talking about someone's relationship(s) or discussing why a person would not be sponsored. I think they also held you personally responsible for the entirety of the thread and whatever was said when only a portion of what was said was said by you. I didn't comment in the thread but did read it. It was an interesting subject about something that happened publicly and about which people are allowed to have a discussion.

    Unless these people want to come across as worse snowflakes with small 1st world problems they should just accept what you've said and move onto their next target.
