Zia was supposed to be a hot girl too; she "dated" Eri, he would brag about it on the forums and then it kinda occurred that she was a man.

Not that I dont trust you, but well, in my eyes, the staff has kinda lost much of its credibility after that Zia thing. And now everyone is always winning and super rich from poker, no one is ever losing. Kinda suspicious.


I lost 110,000$ 3 days ago~

LOL at fisheye, that's pretty shameless.

We've played bet games twice fisheye, I lost small once (~200 / game for a couple games) and then I didnt play you for months. I sucked you into some low stakes bet games when you were unpracticed and low rolled, you lost a few and increased the stakes (standard fisheye) and then lost some more. I think we played 15 or so games that time and you lose inbetween 1-2k. I have never played over 1k a game with anyone but elky and I am definitely up on life vs you.

Rekrul and I are pretty even, we've both dominated eachother at different times on different days. I think we each 7-0ed or 8-0ed eachother. I remember him doing it first and me matching him a month or two later. We could have gotten a lot more good games in vs eachother but after Elky came back to Korea there wasn't really much point.

Elky and I have probably played over 1000 bet games. It started at 100 a game but elky raised me to 200 and then 500 within the first few days. We regularly had days where we played 12 hours straight against eachother where eating and going to the bathroom was pretty unacceptable, the action was non stop. The stakes were quickly raised to 1k and sometimes beyond. I'm pretty sure elky and I have traded more starcraft betting action back and forth than all other starcraft betting between all other players combined. Rekrul and I have both gone on pretty significant streaks vs elky before with 10 game winning streaks being pretty common, I think Rekrul had a 15-0 session vs elky before but I am proud to hold the record of 20-0 in a single sitting.

The only person I am definitely down on life vs at starcraft is z-zone soo. He raped both rekrul and I 1 day after the other with pretty significant winning records. I think something like 10-1 vs rekrul and something like 9-0 vs me. We both felt pretty helpless after getting raped that bad but it should be noted it's not a TRUE starcraft betting game since soo picked zerg (true brood wars betting is random vs random).

That pretty much sums up my starcraft betting.

G5 vs Rekrul bet games GO?!

with the shit they've each talked they are pretty obligated to play eachother

edited to add: I forgot Im down vs testie in a pretty sickening way as well. Dont remember the records but something ugly and ~2k total.

I won 500 dollars vs Rek yesterday ^_^.
I'm still down on life vs Rek, but hey~ a win is a feel good win.

My first PvZ win vs him ever. Such a dramatic way to win.

And Grr's comment, - it's impossible - LOLOL O man, Giyoms such a nit.

Apparently some people care. Even you. Did you fail to realize that posting a paragraph long rant about how you don't care is incredibly hypocritical? *thumbs up* If you did not care you would not have read the op, nor bothered to respond. I'm pretty sure no one was trying to impress you, so no one really cares if you're impressed.


This doesn't make any sense, he didn't say he doesn't care, he says he doesn't think it should be lauded and cared about so much by others. If the proper attitude for something you didn't like was "stfu and don't say anything if you don't like it" then nothing would ever change.
God is cruel; sometimes he makes us live.

I agree with you, it doesn't matter at all. And my post was braggy, but come on, whats wrong with a little braggy fun. I stated in my post that it's an obvious brag it's not like I'm walking around with my cock out saying look at me look at me I'm so cool. I made this post as a service to everyone on the site just as much as a service to my own "inflated ego."

Human beings enjoy stuff especially when theres something on the line. Especially money. That's just human nature. Imagine Artosis playing Incontrol in the finals of WCG USA with a 50k prize on TV and two much better players like Light[alive] and Chojja playing in dual tournament. Maybe not you, but if the average person had to choose to watch one only, I guarantee they are tuning into the Artosis vs Incontrol game for laughs, excitement, etc even though the two koreans will be a much more skillfull game.

Btw theres no such thing as too much money. And having it does not mean one is living a decadent meaningless life. Maybe you should re-look yours.

Yeah, I was quite surprised there was no nuke icon =p

That's pretty sweet. $ games in anything are always 10x more fun than just playing for bragging rights. Unfortunately, none of my friends play bw, so I don't play for money there. I used to play madden, super strikers and super smash bros for money though. The most I ever won off one game was liek 250$ ><

While PoorUser did pay his share of everything (maybe even more) during his stay in Korea, next time he comes -- which he will cause once you're here once you're here twice thrice etc -- I will definitely give him some rakeback.

Wow... did he fall asleep? Go to the can? He literally seemed to be doing nothing in the last several minutes, when he still could have pulled it together and won, if he just put down a few more factories and pumped goliaths.

Oh guys come on, why all the hate?

Rek: You are up on me, dunno how much guess somewhere between 3-10k
I didn't post to brag but to summarize all that happend. Imho your post was more brag than mine

Raszi: Honestly you were the guy posting everywhere your hot run with a retarded br management.
I didn't even ran hot yesterday and did not win that much anyways, I just played good was overly tired and felt like ending the post with my archivement. Imho you get me pretty wrong but since we never met I can understand your thought process. I don't have a big bling watch nor do I care much for monies I just like to play good poker and thats what I did yesterday.

Smuft: Either you or Rek played me for 3-4 games 3k each (when he was down a lot and we felt like gambling) I am 90% sure this happened and I am pretty sure it was Smuft.. I feel like I won more than smuft overall but I have no idea how to proof it and I could be wrong here. This was maybe 16months ago not sure..

Naz: You should know me better..

Anyways I really liked the bet games but burns a lot of time and I can remember days where I basically played whole days which in retroperspective were kinda lost time (unfortunately also money).
Guess I am overall down 10-13k in bet games but could be wrong here also.
Still got a rep folder somewhere with some of the matches =]

Cheers and take it easy

Fisheye your post is no problem and in no way worse than mine it's just that the way you wrote it makes you come off as a complete dick/asshole whereas I think the way I wrote mine doesn't (not as much atleast lol). Not implying you are one of course (even though you are cockier than me--don't deny it ;D). I know you were just trying to add more to the thread and clarify everything as it is fun to read about for everyone. When talking about any kind of high money matters in public even if bragging you need to somehow portray atleast some humility or atleast portray the fact that you know you're bragging to make people not hate you...thats the way it goes.

People read your little comment at the end of your post about your good poker session as "Yeah so you guys might be up on me in starcraft but I won fucking several thousand in poker today so I don't care suck my dick!!!" <---Thats pretty lame when the thread has nothing to do with poker.

"No. Its just some guys with too much money who never earned it the hard way, thus have no feeling for money, thus use all their money to live a decadent and meaningless life."

i dont know Rekrul or anyone else mentioned in the betgames but i am a little offended by this line. i dont know what earning it the hard way means but i'm sure you didnt play poker seriously.

though its amusingly ironic to come to a starcraft forum and be bitter about a poker players meaningless life. i also think its really unfair to say this about someone elses life.
