    I'm sure he can but:

    1. He'd get bitched at by every online poker player who knows who he is.

    2. He would be a candidate for slowrolling 24/7.

    3. He would get the shit beaten out of him if some people had the chance.

    It's safe to say Russ's days of public life in the poker community [And probably gambling in general outside of his circle of friends] are finito. :)
  8. I know I gotta be a noob for asking but what did he do ?

    Yeah, I'm sure some internet kid is gonna kick his ass.
  11. Yeah I am reluctant to believe someone is going to try to kick his ass over this in a public place, esp a casino. The risk of going to jail is so great and there are cameras everywhere. Im not sure the satisfaction of doing it, if any would actually exist, would be worth it.
  12. As most of us know, your ability to think logically is reduced when drinking. So I think that...

    Alcohol +
    "legend" status +
    Friends goading the drunk person on =

    At some point, someone will at least take a swing at him.

    If you know someone you think might be capable of this "legendary" act, I can provide alcohol and goading.
     
  15. Well I would certainly tell him what I thought of him! Probably try to goad him into hitting me.. if that didn't work I would probably swallow some jaeger bombs and slap him anyway.. LOL then again this is coming from a guy missing the deep stack season in vegas because I am on home arrest for fighting.. LOL on second thought ask someone else what to do!

    yea, Russ Hamilton is SUCH a badass and all...

    and online poker players are all skinny nerds who can't fight... I mean, they play poker on a computer after all!

    not saying it's going to happen, but you don't have to be so dumb and paint all online players with the same brush...

    It would be dumb to think if Russ Hamilton showed up in the Amazon room around 1 or 2am that he would walkout without some kind of confrontation.

    Or they could just pay someone to do it for them, b/c there's not like a million dudes at the WSOP who'd do it for 2k. Maybe less.

    Show me where I said an internet guy COULDN'T kick his ass...I'll wait...

    ...waiting...

    Ok, since you couldn't find it, I'll clarify.

    I said:

    Yeah, I'm sure some internet kid is gonna kick his ass.

    In that, I'm pretty damn sure none of the people talking crap online are actually going to do anything about it. I almost guarantee that.

    I didn't, however, say:

    Yeah, I'm sure some internet kid is capable of kicking his ass.

    If I said that, I could see making your comment.

    WACO misinterprets

    fyp

    he does own tho.
  24. BTW... does anybody really know what was happening at UB/AP? I lost interest when the threads got to about 7,000 pages. Was all this proven or just assumed of the finger pointing?

    Anybody got cliff notes for the outcome?
  25. It happened.. Proven, Admitted, etc..

    I have held off on posting on this forum, aside from the legislative section. I have put a lot of time researching the UB scandal. I posted a lot on 2+2 about it. I am not familiar with the rules about posting links, send me a private message and I can send you some cliff notes. I am still new to this site and will try to figure out how to start a thread with some interesting stuff on the continued cover-up.

    That said, Russ was named by the KGC. Even though the KGC is a joke, they wouldn't have named him if it was false. They could be sued. Also, both Annie Duke and Mike Matusow are on record for saying they are 100% sure he is guilty.

    Could somebody PM and let me know what I can post about UB/Annie/KGC on this forum?

    I do not want to be banned for starting a thread about UB or Annie Duke, but I think that Annie Duke has shown throughout this entire scandal that either,
    1. she had not read and understood the significance of the full evidence against UB before she made several statements/interviews;
    or,
    2. she purposefully misdirected the investigation.
