Official Blather about ZeeJustin Till The End of Time Thread
 
For what its worth, I don't know Zee, and have never met him. Further, he's been a complete jerk to me in the responses he's made to my posts over time. Just less than a month ago he called me "delusional" for critisizing his AIM chat with Strassa during games. Having said all of that, I think that the punishments that Party and this forum are throwing at him are way too harsh. Yes he's a cocky young guy whose made a mistake, but I don't believe that we should allow all of his hard work in this game go down the toilet because of his violation. He has screwed up, but I believe that he deserves a second chance. Any of the guys on this forum could be misunderstood for their poker dealings in the future and would appreciate the same second chance if the situation arose. The only way that Zee gets a second chance is if the poker community decides to police itself, come up with a fair punishment, and mass email party and stars about our decisions. Taking 100K off this kid isn't right. Perhaps they ban all accounts except for the main one and strip him of a few things, but completely ruining him is too harsh. He's young and dumb, and we all know how stupid we were at that age. Its by the grace of God alone that most of us are even breathing.

Mercy is needed,

Indy

PLS GO DIE NOW.

Think about what you are saying and put yourself in this guy's shoes. Its not like he cheated his way to wealth in this game. He's made that $$ via hard work and doesn't deserve to be stripped of his livlihood for his youthful indecision.

In some countries they'd cut off both his hands and he'd have to use a stick attached to his forehead.

I'm calling out to the forum to have mercy on this poor kid. I didn't see the sticky and I really don't understand how these sticky's work anyway. I really don't post regularly in here anyway. Sorry if I screwed up with this post but I think that we are all being too harsh.

dude, he won those two tourneys for over 200K+ total, not to mention he was an affiliate and a winning 215$ SnG player before all of this.

no way he's been stripped of his livelihood, lol.

now lock/move this. I hate it when a poster thinks their view is just too important to be put in the thread designated to the given subject, lest some people accidentally miss the incredible depth of his insight.

Puuuuuuuuuure EGO.

I didn't say he didn't cheat. I just think that the punishment should fit the crime. Ruining his life is wrong and we should all reassess what we are saying. Its our resposiblity to be just.

Boy, thats a load of stress off my back. Here I thought that it was likely that when a person gets caught doing something wrong, it generally means he did a lot of other stuff wrong first before he was finally caught. Glad to know that you know for a fact that all of Zee's money was earned legitimately, and the only times he has ever cheated were the times he was caught.

Why begrudge his success? I smell jealousy all over this forum. Look inside yourself and ask how you would feel if you were Zee. Yes, he's messed up but he worked hard to build his reputation and obviously did not realized how major his violation was or he wouldn't have done it.

Then why is nothing being done to properly deal with this situation? We, in fact, govern what Party/Stars can do, believe me. If we stand up and say its too harsh they will listen to what we say. Its too harsh.

The dude dropped out of college to lead a lonely life and make a lot of $. I don't envy him. I was impressed by his poker skill until now.

he wasnt stripped of his livelihood, he had plenty of $ on top of what they took. on top of that, you're saying he should STILL BE ALLOWED TO PLAY THERE? are you nuts?

mlagoo 02-28-2006 02:30 PM

Re: On ZeeJustin\'s behalf
 
because the majority of people (at least those that have spoken up) disagree with you.

and if you think what stars did was too harsh, thats just absurd.

Ruining his life? The kid is still up hundreds of thousands of dollars from online poker, how is his life ruined? Maybe he will find it more difficult in the future to make a living playing online poker, but you know what? He's not [censored] entitled to that lifestyle anymore. Sucks to be him that he might actually have to go out and get a real job.

Ok, what type of cheaters should Party Allow back?

They took away 100k? So you must know how much he won by cheating if you think this is to harsh?

I am 37, Old enough?

Re: On ZeeJustin\'s behalf
 
I'm not saying exactly what should be done. Honestly, I haven't thought through it and perhaps I'm not smart enough to do so on my own but I'm not so stupid that I cannot see what is happening here. Do you really think that he should never be able to play online again for the rest of his life for something he did at 19 yrs of age???? Probation, house arrest, maybe, but complete termination of his poker career? It ain't right.

Indy

Triumph36 02-28-2006 02:43 PM

Re: On ZeeJustin\'s behalf
 
Yes, plenty of people hear what you're saying - they also posted in the original thread. I don't think ZeeJustin should be banned for life from poker like others do, but the fact that cheated makes it likely for him to cheat again, just in ways that cannot be detected by the online poker sites. There is no reason to think he will ever be an honest player again - and if you read his abomination of a statement in the original thread, the only trace of remorse is that he got caught.
