    for real Yang isn't 1/10th as annoying as Waco. That dude won 1 big tournament and his whole forum persona changed, as if waco comes from on high to endow us all with his infinate knowledgr and wisdom now. let it rest dude

    You are correct about the seven figures
  5. Here is what made me dislike Yang so much. I am a devout Christian [which by the way, does NOT mean morally holier-than-thou] and if God was going to intervene in a direct fashion, it probably would involve feeding the hungry in Darfur and not delivering an eight of spades to Jerry Yang.
  6. Also yes Yang is a freak obv, but that Rainkhan guy is the biggest goof i have ever seen play poker on T.V.. Seriously that was unbelievably pathetic the way he was acting..

    i agree, that dude is a major d-bag.... correcting grammar on this forum, what a joke. Does it make you feel smart? If you cant find anything to do with your time, allow me to offer a suggestion....... go wash your disgusting fkn hat.

    And everone who hates on Jerry can just suck it.... fkn jealous, nothing more to it.

    yea like me... I am far from being perfect when it comes to grammar, and I hardly "grammar police all the time" like you say... way to make stuff up

    however, when someone rambles for that long without using paragraphs or commas, it is incredibly hard to read... it's not hard to use some commas and help everyone out

    it's like some of you guys just wait for me post and flame anything you can...

    I did not correct anyone's grammar, I actually flamed him for making a huge run on sentence that is difficult to read... minor difference there...

    does randomly trolling make you feel good?

    feel free to think I am annoying, but anyone who knows me will tell you I have not changed one bit... I have always been the same person, and my posts have not changed on here at all... and I won three big tournaments FTR

  15. If I were MrBlonde I would totally link the old Waco, MattG, Gamiatec trip report to the New Orleans strip club as proof that Waco's claims are legit.

    He's a no nonsense kind of guy, stop reading his posts or stop bitching about his persona imo.
  16. You bastard, I've got hurt ribs, and I'm not supposed to be laughing this hard.
  17. First, I really don't understand why so many of you are hating on Jerry Yang. Yes a little odd and a bit different but I mean the guy is attempting to make a difference. At least he is a giving some money to help others. I'm not saying praying to god on television is right, but I think there are other things to hate upon than hating because of this Jerry Yang.

    Second, as far as Waco's comments goes, I think some of them are inappropriate. Yes this is a forum and it is hard to distinguish sarcasm and a joking attitude but Waco your posts do come across a little harsh at times. On a side note, I do believe a lot of people are just looking for a way to flame on you.
  18. Ok, I've been holding this in for way too long, but since everyone else is bashing Waco, I might as well too. I've had it.

    I'm so sick of Waco. There, I said it. I'm sick of him. Who does he think he is? Seriously. Does he know this is pocketfives? Does he not know that pretty much every other poster who used to lend a valuable perspective to the community free of charge has gradually disappeared? Does he not know that the hoards of trolls have run off pretty much everyone who plays at a level where the buy-in is worth more than a handful of gumballs and some belly-button lint? Does he not know that posting information free of charge isn't trendy anymore?

    How dare he give his honest opinion of someone who others may think is great because the tv tells them to. How dare he become annoyed by someone posting the same thing that shows up everyone other week on this site and still has the same answer. How dare he defend himself against posters who don't know him and yet feel compelled to call out his personality and how he treats people and make a judgment on how he's changed over the years. Who does he think he is?

    Waco, you make me sick. Apparently that red on your FTP name signifies more than you just being an FTP "pro" - and come on, you haven't even won a WSOP bracelet yet, some pro you are.

    Waco, you're a fkn communist. There, I said it.

    /rant.
  19. okay, i met the champ in reno in march, and i actually got to converse with him for 20 minutes (got a nice pic). i also PPVed the final table from last year, so i saw ALL the play, not just highlights shown to the viewer who doesnt get to enjoy the progression of the 'flow of the game'.
    Yang was shortstacked at the beginning of the FT, and IMO made a play at winning the title. he was aggressive, reckless and gambled when the others were tight and passive. I honestly feel he deserved the title that day, AND i can cite many plays that were unorthodox, foolish, and too risky in a major championship FT. he certainly and consistently overvalued the value (size in proportion) of blinds and antes he went after with questionable raises preflop.
    the fact is, he won, he's the champ, and the uninformed, know nothing haters here can express thier fucked up opinions, if they must.
    hater posters, we know youre a donkey...but Yang is a donkey world champion that goes down in history... complete with televised documentation, fame, and the label of world champion. Maybe Jerrys just a good guy, and you hate him for it.

    Scotty the staller (known Jesus hater)
  20. I just wonder how you reconcile vice and Jesus. I'm gonna go fuck a whore...for the Lord!

    That's what's great about America. He's free to be on TV and openly profess his beliefs, and you're free to disagree. Our country would be in really bad shape if we did as you suggest, and not allow "really religious people" on TV.

    you are an idiot. they let everybody on tv, most of them 100 times more annoying that yang praying.

    Some astute people on here imo.
  25. Jerry Yang is a class act, I met him in Tunica. Very well mannered at the table even though he was second player out in a single table to satty to main event, lol. but in all seriousness, anyone who takes pics, signs autographs with a smile all the time and gives back money to help the needy is a stand up guy in my book.
  26. Jerry is a great champion...

    I Hope the winner of the ME can have atleast 1/10th of the class that he has shown through all of this...
     
  27. Anyone who thinks Jerry Yang is a douche needs to have their douche-meter re-calibrated. Here's a tip how to do it - point it at the biggest douchebag to play the WSOP in recent memory - Hevad Khan.
