Why is everyone whining about this thread, and not, say the thread that just reports that John Cernuto took a sandwich into the bathroom? Curious.

Army Eye,

I have no idea why there are complaints, but I know that next time I make any gossip thread I will include a famous poker player doing something disgusting.

Worst Trip report ever.


OP, you sound like a complete fanboy.

Thanks, that really hurts coming from a guy with 44 posts. At least I'm attempting to contribute rather than lurking and randomly insulting posters.

As for being a fanboy, not really, but you can take it however you like. I was just writing down random observations that I made while railing.

Your post would have been better received if you had titled it "random observations I made while railing from the World Poker Challenge" instead of "Some Gossip..."

shaniac,

I agree that I mistitled the thread. But still there was a little bit of gossip, but most of it was observations. I just don't see why this catches so much sh!t when some guy posts about a sandwich being brought into a bathroom and people praise that. please explain.

dude, you're not catching "so much sh*t," chill out. you posted a thread titled "gossip from [wpt event]" which by all accounts had potential to be an A++++++++++ thread and instead when i opened it all i found were random observations/notes that i didn't find to be at all interesting. i'm sure many people were similarly disappointed given the expectations the title creates but it's not a big deal, just start another thread, title it "gossip from wpt reno," actually provide gossip this time and everything will be cool.

BKice explained it well--in the context of a trip report, your observations would have been welcome and appreciated...but with the promise of "gossip" in the thread title, we collectively hoped to hear some juicy tidbits, since we already know that Gavin Smith likes to drink and gamble and that Greg Mueller is tall.

Phil Laak - he came down at around 3am and was playing in the 5/10 NL game, sitting with wads of cash in front of him. He then started taking prop bets of red or black on the flop for 5 grand. I think only a few took him up on the offer.

Dudes,

Phil Laak might be in for a 10k coinflip, yo.
