Re: Controversy at the Playboy mansion
[ QUOTE ]
this reminds me of the time Annie Duke grabbed someone's cards after the hand was over and looked at them; I don't remember the details but it was on TV and they were playing for real money (the TOC where she won 2 mil maybe)... I was stunned to see a "professional" do something I hadn't seen outside of .01/.02 home games... now I know she's just a [censored] with no honor [/ QUOTE ] Sure you aren't thinking of Jennifer Harman sneeking a peek at Phil Laak's cards on PAD? The amount of libel on this board is amazing. People will write complete rubbish. |

I think he's talking about the hand between Annie and Brett Jungblut a few years ago. [/ QUOTE ] OK. If I were to defend J Harman, I might say she did it thinking the whole PAD game was halfway a joke, especially considering Phil L was acting like a clown and rolling on the floor and generally being a douche. Seems like looking at someone elses cards would be an DQ in a tournament for blatant cheating. |

Re: Controversy at the Playboy mansion
There is a story in "Positively Fifth Street" about Annie Duke at the world series grabbing someone's cards after he threw them in the muck. She looks basically like a huge bitch in the entire book.
There was also an issue about 2 years ago when UB held their first million-dollar guaranteed tourney, and Annie Duke, who was an employee of UB at the time and actually scheduled and planned all the tourneys, commentated the webcast, and yet guess who's account won the whole tourney? Her second one. Couldn't find a link on 2plus2 about it, but here is one: http://www.thepokerforum.com/forum/ubbth...ite_id/1#import |

[/ QUOTE ] Notice that I was just asking for confirmation because you can't believe 90% of what you read here. I never said the poster was full of [censored]. (Still would like to see a youtube video, not a book reference, of Duke looking in the muck, since to me that is such outrageous cheating that its hard to believe. For the same reason I'm inclined to think J Harman must have only been mimicking it.) If the poker player isn't in the 2+2 click, he'll be trashed here with complete disregard for anything that comes close to being considered evidence. Sad... well, not really, since no one of real importance gives a [censored] what is written on NVG. |

The amount of libel on this board is amazing. People will write complete rubbish. [/ QUOTE ] like WutRUTryin2Hit mentioned: Check out the book - positively 5th street by James McManus. Theres a mention of Annie Duke pulling a guys cards out of the muck (i think it was tony Ma) during a 1k sat for the main event. Also i believe DN in the past had made posts in rgp about Annie Duke and situations similar to this but i cant find them at the moment nor do i know if theyre true or not. This reminds me of a past prelim WSOP broadcast from either 04 or 05. There was some kind of argument with AD and some other guy. I think ESPN cut away from the final table they were broadcasting to check in on a Omaha 8/b tournament and Annie Duke was really worked up and nearly screaming at someone (i think it was Gank/ Brett Jungblut ). That was when i decided i didnt like this women. Not sure what her beef was but her tone was just so obnoxious. [ QUOTE ] It gets worse. The latest on Terrence's blog comments by Joy Miller to his blog, she doesn't represent herself very well. My favorite line of hers is "Remember one thing, Terrence, you're not Johnny Chan, you're Terrence Chan." I guess if he was Johnny Chan they would have done something different? [/ QUOTE ] Yuk!. At least we now know who to blame. Joy Miller 100%. |
