Default After spending time with ZeeJustin...

I was in Las Vegas for the Five-Diamond main event and to do a feature story on Justin Bonnomo (ZeeJustin) for Bluff Magazine.

After spending some time with him and thorladen, who also sat down with us, I was extremely impressed with how he carried himself altogether.

He spoke candidly about his past and the decisions he has been heavily criticized for. He took time during breaks in the Final 10 to talk to me about how he was playing, etc.

Most poker players I have met show very little dignity and maturity in the face of the mistakes they have made, and it was refreshing to spend time with someone who, at such a young age has faced an incredible amount of criticism, yet handled it like an adult, accepting blame while speaking about it with maturity and candor.

Not to mention he took all this time right after bubbling the main event.

gg sir!

He wasn't worried because he had two other accounts still going in the tourney. Don't worry, he handicapped himself by having the interview with you.

He didn't necessarily do it here. But it would be pointless now; nobody would believe he is sincere. So you're not going to get anything that's going to satisfy you on this front.

Yep. Flashing blue light and siren went off and woke me up from a deep sleep to alert me of this thread.

So he spoke candidly? That would mean he admitted not just multi-accounting, but also that he knew it was cheating from the beginning, and that his assertions to the contrary here were lies, despites the beliefs of so many gullible fools here to the contrary. So was he really candid? Or were you as an interviewer not knowledgeable enough to pin him down on this? Or were you in fact knowledgeable but just chose as so many others here have, to ignore the lies and let him continue on without admitting same? YOU be candid now OP.
