I really don't see the link. If the country you're from is a third world country = you're greedy/immoral/dishonest? Does that mean you're like that too? Because the last i heard, Bangladesh is a third world country too.

While it is COMPLETELY off topic, "third world" only refers to a countries economic system during the cold war. 1st and 2nd world were countries that had adopted either democracy or communism and the 3rd world were countries that hadn't clearly adopted either.

Given the progress we've made in development, third world = poor simply doesn't hold anymore. In fact, a lot of "third world" countries are showing double digit GPD per capita growth.

I rant about this because if I think too hard about the OP it makes me want to set things on fire.

Awesome drama, love it.

There's $12.9k pocketed, converted to chemical delights, and railed up the nose / slammed up the vein.

Yeaaaaah, so high... nodding... yes... oh shit 2:45pm on tourny day?!!!!! Better run. Show up at 3pm, completely blasted aka "not in the right mind to lead us".

When someone is riding an opiate high, one does not give the slightest fuck about anyone, or anything else for that matter. Honestly this is typical junkie behavior that I think the staff/team members/sponsors should look into.

This guy is definitely on something, I'm willing to bet all my money on that.

Keep this 3rd world country shit out of the equation, it has absolutely fuck all to do with anything going on here. There are such things as douchebags in first world countries too, geniuses.

You mention that he is from a third world country and then attribute this bad things to him. How wealthy/industrialized is your country (Bangladesh)?


About 1/3 GDP per capita of Philippines. Oh the irony.

An insider told me that actually, Gus has been feeling like a high-roller and running his mouth coz he has a wealthy bank roller/business partner from the US. Dunno. Thats what a dude who's been dealing with Gus told me.

This Gus, I can say, is really a smug sort of guy. You can just see the arrogance seeping through his skin. I was introduced to him at the event and actually watched him deal with people. If you look at all the promo materials too, its always photos of him trying to look cool in his team jacket. I mean, aren't the players supposed to be the stars? WTF. Egomaniac that bit off more than he could chew. I mean, who the hell puts "BOSS" on their tourney ID? Oh the douchery.

The string of promises and how intertwined and interdependent the promises are makes me think this is like a Ponzi scheme.

Promise to a lot of people.
No funds to fulfill that promise. Promise to entity/person B to fund first promise.
New sponsor arrives. Can fulfill promise B. Promise something to entity/person C. Get excited at the possiblity.Promise a lot to entity/person C-G
No funds to fulfill promise to entity/person C-G. Promise to H and use funds to pay C-G

FXOBoss?

Seriously though, the "insider info" you have doesn't really amount to much if you aren't going to cite a source.

No offense intended, but I don't know you from a hole in the wall, and this just continues to fuel the rumor mill, which isn't helping right now.

Yup, I could very well see this as the motivation for all the lies. Perhaps Gus hoped that the event will work out fine and bring good reputation to him and AZK, and enable him to rope in more sponsors for future events. This funding could then be used for all current debt, but he is an idiot and some stuff just cannot work on promises and needs money now, not in a few months. Clive and the hotel staff were already in talk with the police, if I understood it right, and Amanda's bill also cannot be kept secret, so his structure of promises and lies collapses.

This also reminds me of the prize money thread. All those events not paying out prize money seem suspicious, too. If Gus would have done it like that, holding prize money back instead of travel costs, he could have kept up his web of lies for at least a few months longer, and would now only have to explain why the event was organized badly.

This is of course all pure pessimistic guesswork, fueled by rumors, but I cannot see why he would not come out and talk, if he actually has money and not only empty promises. This is even all happening in the middle of the week and not over the weekend.

But see, FXOBoss is an ID. Gus' ID is Witchdok right? His ID should be like...Head organizer or something...team leader/owner... "BOSS" is well...overcompensating for something.

No offense taken, man. The guy who told me that info is a guy that has worked with Gus in the past and worked on the PPSL event itself. In fact, he's one of the people Gus owes money to. I'm not at liberty to reveal his identity but there is absolutely no reason for this guy to spew BS.

Wait what?, did you just implant an anti-drug rant in the middle this? Rofl, i must be missing something here. Is there any evidence Gus showed up on dope?
