    The Ultimate F*%K You!! A Poker conundrum

    As of 1pm eastern today Chris Furguson claims the 2017 WSOP Player of the Year title......


    Not sure how I feel about this......part of me loves to see a 54yr old poker "legend" stick it to these new aged GTO blowhards but i damn sure wish it was someone other than Jesus

    Weird. Been watching old clips when I'm bored, and was wondering what he was up to. Didn't know he even came back.

    i saw a final table way back when... jesus was playing against hellmuth and some other guys that were getting pissed off because he went all-in every hand for quite a while

    i thought it was great, he had the chip lead and nobody wanted to get knocked out

    but for the full tilt stuff, ferguson/lederer/etc seemed really scummy

    what full tilt did wasnt that bad. basically all the money they were short was because of it being stolen by the government or payment processors and being unable to collect deposits owed to them. just like the majority of gamblers here they were chasing their losses and hoping to get back to even. im sure everyone would have been overjoyed if they just shut down after their first major seizures when they knew they couldnt cover the deposits and payed everyone half of what they were owned. instead they gambled that they had enough to cover withdrawals until they could get deposits again. banks keep far less % of money on hand but they get to be bailed out by tax payers when they screw up.
