I came here cause I saw some posts on twitter with druff being attacked and not looking good. I admit after reading this thread I get where druff is coming from and recognize Jami is indeed very shady. But if she has legitimate cancer well that kinda gives her a free pass honestly. And as far as i can tell she hasn't done anything illegal, albeit clearly deceitful. Nobody is gonna come out looking good from this thread and its a lose lose IMO.
The past gofundme campaigns + the drama she's constantly creating + the victim mentality + the gaslighting about the nameOriginally Posted by BetCheckBet
What does that add up to in your mind?
We had a guy in our poker game who also had cancer. He ran a gofundme and immediately jumped back into poker / losing. Everyone know what was going on.
Tough situation.
He was actually sick but clearly using his 'medical funds' that were given to him as a charitable donation for other things, which is not what was agreed to.
Once he recovered a few people asked him if he felt he should make a plan to repay the ~$7,000 that he collected for medical bills and lost at the table. He deflected over and over and eventually people stopped asking and now he's just a losing scummy poker player again.
I tell this story to show that it's not at all unheard of for people to be opportunistic when dealing with medical issues.
A history of framing oneself as a victim publicly and often is a person who is going to create some suspicion of being capable of this behavior.
I hope Jami get's healthy and shows that this was not the case with her, as that seems like a very simple thing to do.
When you ask for $50,000 and target a very specific community with your charity campaign, that community has a right to ask for validation that those funds were not taken under false pretenses.
Lots of things here don't add up.
Hopefully when Jami is feeling better she can look at things objectively and realize that being forthcoming and transparent is going to get rid of any doubt that the community is experiencing as to how the funds will be used.

I don’t disagree with this. Just that as I said. Even if druff is right here (which he likely is)he’s gonna hurt his reputation. I know druff not going to back down at this point because it’s druff. But this won’t end well for either of them .The past gofundme campaigns + the drama she's constantly creating + the victim mentality + the gaslighting about the name

Druff can prove that her sister is fake, that she is using money for other things, or that she is mentally unstable, but a large part of her supporters won’t care as long as she is actually ill (which she is) and will see druff as a bully.
But hey don’t beleive me just look at both of them being attacked on Twitter
Reserving comment for now, beyond noting that it seems someone tapped into their dupe bench once again.

Nadya Magnus donated $10,000 to this scam Gofundme lol. So pathetic.

druff got more random troll/sock puppet accounts than I do and I bought 500 for 3$ back in like 2011
That Jensen guy isn't me. Several others in that thread (who are well established accounts) said almost the exact same as Jensen. It might even be Jensen from NWP. I haven't interacted with him.
Look at all the tweet replies he's posted over time: https://twitter.com/JensenPoker/with_replies
There's a ton of them, stretching like 5 months back, and none of them have anything to do with me or anything I'm typically interested in. This would be some dedication to creating a dupe if it was really me.
Anyway, while Jami probably has some form of slow moving cancer, I believe she is milking her latest planned surgery to rebuild her bankroll that she chunked off on stream last month. She has been talking about her cancer since 2012, and refuses to present any kind of proof of medical bills or necessity for this $50k.
You're just supposed to give it to her because ... she's having cancer-related surgery?
She totally, absolutely, positively won't use it to play poker, guys. Nope. Totally unrelated to the fact that she lost 20k on stream recently.
Also very important not to ask her about the fake suicide, the fake sister doing the gofundme, or any proof of medical bills. If someone says the word "cancer", you're supposed to shut up and send funds to strangers from Twitter. That's the rule of the internet.
The sister is real - no clue if she actually set up the gofundme (could've had help writing the poker references I guess) but wasn't hard to find her on social media. Don't want any chance she gets harassed so not going to post a link here but I can message you.
And for the record, I think Jami Lafay really sucks as a person just based on twitter interactions I've seen prior to all this and no chance I would personally donate, but she does seem to be having genuine medical issues so if others want to contribute then more power to em. Who knows if any of the $ is actually needed for medical expenses or if she's just taking advantage of the sympathy but whatever, not my $, not my problem.

Here's what I have gotten in PM from various people on Twitter:
- Jami does not have a sister, only a brother
- Her "sister" Julie is actually her brother's ex-wife
- Jami has little-to-no contact with Julie
- Jami sometimes uses Julie's name/identity to message people on her own behalf, pretending it's a concerned family member making contact
- Jami is estranged from her family
I cannot verify any of the above, but this is what has been told to me by several people.
Great job so far detective Druff. Would also like to hear more of Jeff Dime take/research on this situation. He seems to have a great knack for this kind of stuff. Jeff has a lot of extra time, since he only spends 15 minutes a month now in the Chrissy thread !

I did post what I could yesterday but I was driving most of the day. I’ll try to expound more but I #StandWithDruff here. He is taking all the slings & arrows for nothing in return except doing the right thing. Total negative freeroll, but he is doing everyone a major service.
I was talking to a buddy the other day about how the Chrissy thread moves so fast and the posts the guys make are so detailed & high quality. I’ve just been too far behind to add anything of use lately brother. I want to see that final stake put in Chrissy’s ass just as much as Chrissy does.
Cancer should be taken VERY seriously
Yeah because it worked out well for C$ when he faked that shit on here.
I was gonna say I spoke to Jami”s brother….
she's on twitter now claiming to be a victim of todd.
this outcome was so predictable.
her lies will get more and more unbelievable.
she will never admit to wrong doing, but slowly people will realize the truth and distance themselves from her. something that has likely happened to her many times in her past.
the surgery story seems less and less likely.
all the time arguing on twitter, then complaining about the affects of the stress - it could all be solved simply by providing proof of her claims.
this is not how someone acts who is in the situation that she is claiming to be in.
this is how a person acts when they are caught in a lie.
'gaslighting' has become an overused term - but it seems to accurately describe jami's behavior in this particular situation, and likely a lot of other "situations" in her past.
