Default Building Sweaters - Busto?

Why are all the hot shots stepping down these days?

BLD spotted at PP 2/4 NLHE.

Now I have seen it all.

Saw that too. Are you sure it is the same guy? I think the $400 nl guy's screen name was "BLDSWEATRS" or something, maybe was only closely spelled to the higher limit guy's name.

Also, the guy at the $400 seemed to be an unimpressive TAG, not like the original guy.

tom,

I spoke w/ Bld and it's a pretty sick story. He had withdrawn 300k plus borrowed another 200k (he wanted to keep a chunk online) to play in some huge live games during WSOP and his roommate stole the cash and left town. Sick.

El D,

My sarcasm detector is broken today. I really did see him at 2/4, and so not sure if you are joking with your story or not.

If not, wow, just WOW!

If you are joking, then good one. I believed your gossip (it is in the true spirit of the gossip part of NVG). You can sell me a bridge any time.

p.s. Please make sure to give me the 2+2 discount when you do. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Or course it could be a different guy with a slightly different spelling, but the guy I saw at 2/4 had a screen name of bldswtrs.

same here, the story sounds too fishy but I don't see the obviously sarcastic part of the story. El D is too good.
