Meh. He doesn't say anything in his blog that hasn't been said here about ten thousand times already. Just because it comes from PP doesn't make it any more or less true.

Oh, it's true. It's true.

Sarcasm has no value or impact if it can't be differentiated from the common level of dreck posted here.

"his entire base of family and friends"

I am the only one who noticed that this great thinker assumes that Chan's "entire base" of friends and family is Chinese? That wouldn't be a racist thought, would it???

I wonder what Chan thinks of Gold welching on the deal. Even if Gold doesn't care what other players think, I would imagine in Chan's circles that stuff is pretty important. IE - they might look down on Chan for continuing to associate with Gold. I know I would.

[/ QUOTE ]

Chan's circles? What exactly are you implying? That because Chan is Chinese his entire base of family and friends all follow a single code of ethics passed down from generation to generation.

[/ QUOTE ]

I assumed that the reference was to Chan's peers on the poker circuit. How you got race or clans or whatever out of that is way too twisted or politically correct to believe.

[/ QUOTE ]

So why would your assumption mean anything more than my assumption?

Pretty much because his explanation is the simplest, therefore the most likely.

Chan and his "clan" have been here long enough (decades) and have been involved in the gambling industry long enough to know what goes on. Someone claiming that another guy owes him 6 million is not going to cause Gold to "lose face" with Chan or Chan to lose face with anyone else. So far all we have is the story of one guy. Maybe it's true and maybe it's not. Even if it's true we all know that when it comes to big money everything is negotiable.

poty. too bad johnny chan wasn't japanese as we could have easily done another half dozen posts on him having to commit seppuku since he 'lost face'
