    For all the crap this guy takes in the forums, he played very well in this evenings tournament. Just thought I'd give some credit where it's due.

    I think most of the hate he receives is non poker related. I've always considered him a solid tournament player.

    My opinion is that Bobby is a very tight tourney player and that style will generally win (some points) in the SBR style tourneys.

    I believe he gets a lot of flak because he uses whatever angle he can find to eek out points and talks a lot about how great he is at it, that rubs some people the wrong way. Lastly he has stated that he likes slow-rolling people which again is a jerk move and will irritate people.

    To each his own, if it works for him all the power to him.

    Impossible to be a stiff, when I never requested a loan in the 6+ years I've been here. When one can generate their own pts, loans aren't necessary obviously.

    My style not only works for me, it keeps me somewhat entertained (slow rolling Tripe). I'm obviously not concerned if it "rubs some people the wrong way." Apparently being intelligent is considered angle shooting to you.

    If myself or someone else is breaking any alleged rules: angle shooting, slow rolling, using allotted time, etc... I strongly encourage you to report it. This way SBR can nip it in the bud, & it won't "irritate people."

    Possibly, but I doubt it...If so, I obviously have it easily covered & won't need a loan like Tripe.

    LOL and I was trying my best to be as non-confrontational as possible. Well you have succinctly clarified why people can get irritated with you.

    First of all, indicating that I was lying is an incorrect characterization of what I stated. I stated facts and you actually confirmed/reinforced most of them.

    Part of poker and the community on SBR is about having a little class. You like some other folks are not displaying that. It is not against the rules of the game directly but it does show where you have lack of mature character.

    LOL, I love the constant "report me to SBR" refrain. If you really think mature adults would continually go crying to SBR because you are acting like a douche, you never really grew up.

    To each his own.

    I was never one that agreed with limiting eberretas timer, he was not "breaking" rules, he was just abusing the intent behind the timer and therefore not acting correctly. In my opinion, he will (like you) eventually learn the error of his ways or not. It depends on the individual's maturity level and desire to get along in a reasonable fashion.

    Do what you will, this is a free site. I will never report you to SBR for being a douche but I will state it when required in an open forum.

    On a forum with thousands of degenerate low life's Bobby is the most disliked.

    That speaks volumes.

    If that was your "best to be non-confrontational," you failed miserably. You're entitled to your opinion, no matter how clueless it is.

    I'm not here to kiss ass & make cyber friends, like many phonies on this site who are unable to think for themselves. I'll continue to play my style of poker & speak my mind, not concerned who I disagree with & irritate. You want to make me out to be some kind of poker villain, go for it. I embrace the role, it will only serve as further motivation.

    My first post was non-confrontational. I just answered Oaf's question.

    I have not kissed any ass and I like to make friends anywhere by being cool and respectable. Something you obviously have not been able to mature too even though you claim to be "retired".

    Speak your mind and act anyway you feel, all you want, I have consistently stated you can do what you want.

    LMAO, if you think you are a poker villain.

    As is evident from your poker play and conduct, you are not even really just a poker douche, you are just a plain douche.

    Congrats to you.

    I didn't create the thread to start trashing the guy....honestly, the waves-bashing has gone beyond overkill at this point. I just wanted to pay him a compliment since I thought he played a good tournament. Pretty miserable failure on my part to not anticipate this devolving into another bashing thread. Sorry Sin and bobby.

    Well I am not sure it has devolved into another bashing thread.

    I answered your question about why Bobby is given a hard time.

    Other than that, I just responded to Bobby's statements.

    I agree.

    I don't think BD was bashing Bobby here, so this has nothing to do with my good buddy, but how many threads on this site (not just poker) get derailed by Waves chatter?

    Just getting a bit old.

    Valid point...I was just trying to be nice. When BD says I created the thread just to troll, it was slightly annoying, but I suppose I understand given that oh near 100% of my posts here are trollish Most of them are humorous though !

    You are correct, I guess I read a question into it where there was not one. I apologise. As far as bashing goes that was not my intent.

    As far as trolling, I was more stating that as tongue in cheek given your posting history. Sorry for misinterpreting this.

    No problem & I appreciate the compliment...& there's no question you & BeerDog are very good poker players.

    I didn't even comment in this thread, until BD made a false & derogatory comment claiming "I talk about how great I am." Never done so & I urge BD to prove otherwise. To the contrary, I've made numerous comments in various threads acknowledging the better poker players.

    If BD wants to talk about classless, who talks smack while trailing a challenge by 3k? His buddy Tripe does. Granted Tripe is playing much better now & can finally back up his smack talk, albeit 9 months later. But to talk smack like he did when trailing by 3k was totally ignorant & classless, thus I thoroughly enjoy slow rolling him.

    I rarely engage others, especially when unwarranted like Tripe. But when I'm engaged, I'll obviously defend.

    Far fewer these days, as the funny bits have been mined for about all they're worth, and all that's left is the same ol nonsense from bobbo. BD's assessment is accurate enough, and no doubt represents one of three groups (the people who care enough about the game/manners to call people out on their douchey behavior). The other two groups being those who just don't care/are unaffected (most people), or the group who thinks bobbo is correct in his actions (just bobbo in the last group).

    Since I've already proven you wrong and taken your points twice, we'll just skip past the part where you're proven wrong yet again, and accept it as a given. As for talking smack being "classless" while trailing, you'll simply have to take the word of better players that it isn't...you've assured us that you're unable to differentiate between a temporary lead and a permanent skill advantage likely to affect the outcome, as well as the inability to grasp basic odds. Not trying to rub your nose in it, it's just a basic fact at this point, proven over and over again. As a result, nobody really expects your opinion to be any different, not when all of your effort goes into trying to reconcile facts to your opinions instead of the other way around.

    As BD succinctly put it, you're not a "villain", you're simply an unremarkable poker player who happens to be a douche as well.

    As to the point of the OP...

    Yet with all these alleged "errors" being made, it's simply amazing to be ranked 12th on an annual leaderboard. Ranking is higher than many of your cronies, yet you don't criticize your cronies play for some reason. Wonder why that is?

    You're memory is not too good. We played a high variance 2 month heads up challenge which you won. I never said I was better & won't concede you're better, as if you entered the 2014 challenge you would be losing.
