I’ve been in finance/poker a long time, I’m not stupid. That’s how I knew he played my account (besides “coaching” me while i played) bc one day he told me I “won” a tournament and magically our number went down. But I also witnessed ghosting, collusion with other accounts too.

ah Doug convinced me to say something. I know exactly who I am, I’ve made mistakes and would never blame anyone but myself. I can genuinely say, I give absolutely 0 shits what you fucks thing of me especially if you don’t know me. Enjoy wallowing in your insecurity and envy.

No one in the poker business wants me to say this but most rec players cannot compete with pros, they have so much more experience and study. Play for fun, challenge, aim to break even or with money you can lose. To make money, invest with odds overwhelmingly in your favor.

Ty for all the support. If your heart is open, you accept that you’re going to get taken. With age, you get wiser. Getting taken doesn’t mean you close your heart. From bad, good always comes if you choose to see it.

I had no idea Martin was gonna do this. Ironically, I think Martin may have used my account as an example bc I have been kind to him and I think he feels guilty that he didn’t tell me after he found out what was happening. There is so much more to this story.

The texts I shared were a recent argument with Bryn telling me I owe him money and me asking for an accounting. Notice how the number keeps changing, he wrote it in the book but then there was no book, he tracks 1000 ppl, no spreadsheet , never wrong.
17

227
And the red flags kept adding up as he began to win and didn’t need me, and I quietly extricated myself. There a huge implications. Gg knowingly built an illegal business off the backs of Bryn’s players vpning in. when their valuation soared, they decided to get legit.
12

219
Let’s be clear - winning/cashing a tourney or a bunch of tourneys IS NOT being profitable. When I first met Bryn, he was over $10Mm in the hole. Profitable is HARD in poker!

Remember, there was no way to get money in and out of Gg, it all went through Bryn , paid in cash, crypto, chips. When he and Gg fell out, he decided to develop his own poker site and did a capital raise for it, which is another potential shit storm.

Apparently I have to say this. Over 2 years since I extricated myself from a toxic friendship I got dragged into this. Assuming Bryn’s number is correct, I am happy to document payments to or on behalf of Bryn well over what he alleges I owe, forget that I may have been cheated.

I was lucky enough to pursue a personal poker dream after a dark period in life, stupid enough to believe that I had the ability to win. I’ve failed, in a public way. Every form of insult/accusation has been levied. I kept playing, learning. Exploit the haters, use them to win.

NOT about the plane or the lifestyle. It’s about about appreciating the gift of those rare and special friendships of our lives. Incredible people who know what’s important, don’t waver in hard times, revel in watching dreams-fulfilled for one another as if they were our own.💕

Then he gets abusive, it’s pathological. When I’d say i wasn’t playing any more, he’d come up with a new scheme, he’d send me a “free roll.”prior to the last losing streak in 2019, he told me I’d give me 1/2 of Sergei’s stake to finance the play bc he needed me to play.

This is the first time I’ve ever felt jaded about poker, guess it had to come. I’ve met some of the most diverse, independent thinkers w great hearts. But the seedy underbelly and catty, self-infatuation of it depresses me. Want to call ppl out, but NOT worth the drama!

What a dream that would be! I remember saying to myself when there were just three of us left “oh, yeah, no problem, just me and 2 of the very best in world!” Still seems like a joke to me, middle-aged woman walks into a room full of young wizards..and somehow wins.

I felt as if I won by making the FT. Amateurs, this is why poker is a great game - if your instincts are good, it’s possible to win against players who have you outclassed. My understanding of the game has increased 50 fold since this win. Maybe I’ll play live again…..

In the defense of pros, like entrepreneurs, the best put in many years of singular focus, non-stop travel, have been broke at least once. It’s a hard life - luck plays a big role, hard accepting we can’t control it. It took some age to teach me to enjoy the journey in life.
