Who then turn around and offer sometimes BOGUS contests to win them. Or a simple do this or that, which many will and then they hand pick (rigged??) so staying out of that now I've wondered to my own self WTF sometimes. Not saying there is anything wrong with it and understand how its super important to growing field sizes and Poker as well, just unfortunately this. Poker is a TINY Community and has real INSIDERs who have Friends which they all are trading these FREE (+EV) seats to their friends. And then on a Free package are making side deals, and id love to see with my own eyes how these real players play. How they move, act physically all over it im sure there some dirty BS happening no doubt about it. Too many friends and insiders in this BS for that not to be happening which is fine, its Poker. I learned that long time ago I do not like Poker Players generally and we do not see eye to eye on things sometimes its seemed to me. So oh well the Guys, women are different with me. So in Poker men can tend to be idiots players. And sometimes they got this big attitude and inflated Ego and i think to myself, what you so special and important. Because you won a little Gambling money I don't get impressed over gambling money and wins. Some of that probably is how growing up just knew lived with became friends with kids who. Parents were big shots, Wall St tycoons, On-Air news personalities because I lived by NYC quick Boat/Train/Helicopter (lol seriously..) from their business week days, is why.
And all the way back to when poker people found out i had a Misdemeanor Mugshot which did make its way around this forum, i was plastered on my worst day too which i myself wasn't happy about. Then poker used to be an escape for me, a place i would go to and be happy. Except then the people and forums, like here. I started to really not respect Poker players EGOs the self inflated bs EGO i had no respeK for. Now also im probably different as we all are in life and will respect someone based on different criteria than someone else. What it wil never be or matter to me is how wealthy you are or how much money you have because. For me was the lesser wealth having kid in my school and people knew my dad did Hardwood floors (Blue Collar) and my tiny town had superstars. I know them, they know me some of them so yeah. Its pretty intimidating maybe for older people me though, i was kid then. I didn't care or know as I got older started to realize ohhh, thats so and so and him. Yeah i understood then famous people need to be more quiet, and lesser public which makes total sense. Especially around Manhattan and there where many people are and famous ones too across all walks of life. So im not one to be star stuck or out place if anything, I may seem uninterested aware but whatever. its not my business unless.
