Challenge to Morphy
RussGe...@aol.com
It will be at a casino of my choice.
Sound familiar?
Did someone die and make you and your buddy dictator?
I already have stated I don't play on FT
100000000000000000000000000000 times.
Now if your buddy want to NEGOTIATE (do you understand the word)? This
means the following, he doesn't get to pick the game or the place to
play. It's a mutuel agreement. I'll tell you what I'll do. I will play
Russian roulette with your buddy for a million and take the first
shot. If he doesn't take the second, I win. Last one to take a shot
loses. Revolver only, no automatics:)

This won't happen for 2 reasons: 1) he's 20 years old and can't get in
most casinos, 2) we've already seen your famous backing down from Barry
Greenstein's challenge. This is an online challenge.

No, but we are offering the terms of a challenge. Listen, we know that no
matter what we say you're going to back down, so we're just going to show
RGP once again how ridiculous you can be.

Ok, same challenge, but $25/$50 for 5 buyins on PokerStars. He isn't sure
if he can get money to Stars, but if you accept the challenge he will get
it there.
As for game, he is a NLHE specialist and doesn't play other games. His
challenge is headsup NLHE. What's your next excuse?

I don't have a FT account and I don't care to play coin flip games.
Plus, so many people have complained about it taking weeks to cash out
on FT.
I'd really be smart to open an account on a site, being I live in WA.
State where it's a 3rd class Felony to play online. Giving lessons is
not:).
I know you have mental problems Mo ron phy, but I have stated just in
my previous posts on all the side bets that HOLDEM was not to be
played.
Unlike you, I'm retired, not retarted.

So what game were you going to play against Barry Greenstein? 50/100
Chicken?
Like I said, we all knew you were going to back down from the challenge.
It's ok. You don't want to be outclassed by a 20 year old kid, and even
if you did, you don't have the money to play. We get it. Just remember
this post when you start whining in other posts about people not playing
seriously on RGP.
It's now official, you've backed down from the challenge.

You really take the Russ thing a little far sometimes. You invent some
high dollar challenge and dictate the terms and then criticize him for
backing down when he doesn't immediately agree. I doubt there is anyone
on the planet who would have accepted this challenge, this quickly, in
this manner.
I have to say you do seem a little obsessed.

I'm just showing RGP once again what joke Russ is. I knew there would be
people like yourself who would blindly follow Russ no matter what. Let's
face it, Russ has ruined RGP with his ridiculous bullshit, and it's time
someone stood up for RGP as a whole.
Also the challenge was not invented. I was on IM with esko discussing the
terms the entire time.
I also find it funny that you don't have any issues with how Russ has put
together his challenges, but show up out of no where when he backs down
from mine. Russ's dictating was way more over the top than mine was.
Mine is simply a NLHE headsup challenge for stakes that Russ complains no
one will play against him. Do you see the difference?

I didn't mean to show up out of nowhere. Recgroups won't let me reply to
the perp motion thread anymore for some reason so I got disenchanted
yesterday and took the day off. We all know what Russ is by now; I'm sure
everybody has made up their minds. I just don't think you achieved much
of anything in this thread besides seeming a little too interested.

Can I play?
5 stud NL was my road game when Roy Bobbie and I played the bars in
Colorado ski towns.
Main game in Breckenridge 1972.
Love ya Russ
AND
I really loved the take down you did with the cash bet.
Nothing like betting a sure thing

Willing to bet on this? I'm sure we could find someone here in RGP's
sucker exploitation department who would be willing to offer you sizable
odds, let's say 5 to 1? 10?
Do you know oil production has already apparently peaked in non-OPEC
countries?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_reserves
In OPEC countries, well, we usually don't know what the hell is going on.
So, since increasing production does not really seem to be possible (GET
USED TO IT), I take it you are predicting an order of magnitude reduction
in demand by December? Or you're just nuts.

I have no bone to pick with Russ.
Jachomo
Xaq is obsessed and jealous of everyone. He can't stand anyone getting
attention and he has to jump in and try to get in the mix... like he's
a playa. I pretty much forgot about RGP for several months, and the
first time I check in... this is what's going on. Typical Xaqpussy
bullshit.
Ron Dworkin
I can vouch for Xaq here. This is a legitmate challenge - I know for
a fact that this friend of Xaq's plays NLHE for those stakes, and that
he would be willing to play Russ. I also know that the kid is only 20
and specializes in NLHE online, so would not accept a live challenge -
why would he? Trying to turn this into a live challenge in a game
other than NLHE is absurd - if Russ doesn't want to play because he
doesn't like the terms, or thinks the kid will win, or if he can't
come up with the money, or whatever reason - then no problem, Russ
does not accept; but it is what it is - an offer to play NLHE online
for 25-50 stakes. I haven't talked to Xaq about this but I know both
him and his friend and the challenge is legit. How is that bullshit?

I dont think so. I think rgp changed ("ruined" isnt the corrrect word)
when all the "tv scooters" showed up (tanya, fell, morphy,cincikid,
estabanaa, etc) and turned rgp into a chat room instead of a poker
discussion group.

LOL is that poor pathetic fucker Jachomo still around? I killfiled him a

That's the SAME thing I was thinking, it's that FellKnight! If ANYBODY has
ruined RGP, it's that FellKnight. He has almost single-handedly RUINED IT,
more than anyone else in all of RGP history! RUINED IT, I say!
He and Da Pickle. RUINED IT!

Now you are getting the hang of it !!
and i will expect a 'royalty" for your using the term 'TV scooter" TM@
____________________________________________________________________

Your challenge had a list of specific 'hoops" to jump through.
Russ has simply said .. no holdem .. you pick the game and the amount!!
Thats a bold offer and we know Russ will play.
So far we know nothing about a 'mystery guest" with a list of requests
longer than what Modonna wants in her dressing room.
Morphy .. you are as lame at this as you are at trying to play poker !!
back to the Cub Scout meetings and leave the gambling to the grown ups !!
I have arranged HU matches , and taken financial pieces in some , and I
can tell you that there is absolutely always negotiations. Anyone who
would not negotiate would be a fool .. not a coward!!

Once again you are wrong. Feel free to put up some money and I'll put you
in a game with Esko on FullTilt. You have enough there from your SNG

I never said there weren't any negotiations. I posted a list of proposed
terms, and Russ was more than able to counter offer. There are 2 things
that can't change: 1) the game is headsup NLHE, 2) nothing over $50/$100.
Everything else is negotiable.
I'm sorry that Russ feels he cannot play NLHE vs. a 20 year old kid. I'm
also sorry that Esko (said 20 year old kid) doesn't play games other than
headsup NLHE. Unfortunately I can't control either of those.

I ALWAYS LOVE THESE DEALS WHERE SOMEONE 20 YEARS OLD CLAIMS TO BE A
'SPECIALIST" IN POKER.
There are no 20 year old 'specialists " in poker. There are tons of 20
year olds who have been on a streak, some that coin flipped their way into
a score. but there are no 20 year old poker pros. Helmuth backed into a
score when he was like 23 .. he was broke several times after that , and
now recovered thru marketing, and promotion.

Ok nitpick the terms all you want, but he's one of the best headsup
players on FullTilt at those stakes (25/50 and 50/100), he's been playing
since he was 15, and he won more money in poker last month than you ever
will in your life.
Sorry to use the word specialist there, sparky.
-----
Ron Dworkin
Would you feel better if instead of saying that Esko is a NLHE
specialist he said that he only plays NLHE and is not nearly as good
at the other games?
Kind of like instead of saying that you are an old broke bitter loser,
I could just say that you are past your prime, can't keep up with the
game any more and are upset about it - but really they make the same
point, don't they?

RGP went down the tubes when the web interfaces were created. Prior
to that you had to know about Usenet and figure out how to use a
newsreader. This kept the average IQ on the group considerably
higher. There are still some excellent posters, but very little is
new and the level of adolescent prattling is very high.
Despite that, with the help of a good set of filters, I read the group
every day and value the contributions of quite a number of posters.
Best,
Peter

RussGe...@aol.com
are about to TAKE ORDERS for the next 2-3 years of when you can shit,
eat, read, sleep and whatever.
I am not of the same cloth. I don't take orders nor demands.
If you care to wage war with me on RGP, feel free. I've stated the
same thing for over 7 years now, online poker is crooked. The high
ends they are getting to. The low end will be exposed, but you broke
morons who want to go fight for? go ahead.
I've stated, even in the last few prop bets, HOLDEM was out. Guess
this doesn't sink into some of you.
Might be the reason many of you are broke.
Why do you think they put the HORSE into the WSOP? See any scooters
winning that event? How about the MAIN EVENT? Odds on, it's another
scooter again.

The irony is that you shat all over Morphy for not knowing how to
negotiate, when you did the exact same thing during the Barry Greenstein
affair.
I will not be taking orders on such simple things, Russ, I am not in boot
camp anymore, and once we pass boot camp and trade school, they actually
treat us like human beings, hard to believe, I know.

I have no desire to wage war with you, but I will defend myself and not
back down when you shoot your mouth of claiming that I only beat you
because I got lucky.

I've already stated the match could be played on PokerStars. However, if
you are unwilling to show off your WCP NLHE skills, I'm afraid I don't
have anyone for you to play.

I believe you're misrepresenting what Russ is saying he can't play against.
I'm pretty sure he didn't say he had a problem playing against a 20 year old
kid. I think he said he's not going to play NLHE. The difference, which
you're not seeing is that NLHE is a coin flip. Agressiveness, board
reading, bet reading are all skills that definitely make a difference if the
cards came to both players equally, but that seldom happens. One player or
the other will get the cards at the right times and walks away the winner.
One skill that Russ seems to possess is that he can turn down a situation
that puts too much money at risk in a coin flip situation. From reading the
stories that Russ tells, that was a skill he acquired through losing his
Bankroll more than once. That would be a good skill for the (said 20 year
old kid) to acquire while he still has the money he's won while on the good
side of those coin flips. Only time will tell if he continues to keep the
luck or if it catches up with him. Hopefully he'll learn to understand that
and take a good portion of what he's acquired so far and put it in something
that will still be there in 20 years. The problem is that ego inflates the
perception of skill in these instances and it's usually too late before the
realization hits home.

All I see in the above super-paragraph is one big excuse for why Russ
won't play. Russ has posted that he's the only WCP on RGP. He has posted
"countless" poker strategy posts, several dealing with NLHE. Yet, there's
a 20 year old kid who only plays NLHE who is willing to play him for WCP
money and he refuses to play, making up excuse after excuse.
This has nothing to do with the 20 year old kid's bankroll or game, so the
last 5-6 sentences in your post are irrelevant. This has everything to do
with Russ's claims of greatness and now nitpicking details and making
excuses for backing out of a challenge. Notice how he didn't even try to
negotiate, instead made up crazy excuses and situations and immediately
backed out?
I've said it before and I'll say it again: those of us who know what Russ
is about know exactly what he would say to this challenge. Those who
blindly follow him, are in love with him, or in some cases are actually
Russ himself obviously don't see this.
The truth is that unless there's some parlor trick involved, Russ won't
play it when it comes to poker.

People who have never played poker have won more than doggystyle.
Even 0 is higher than a negative number.

Choose one of the following: in the PLO8 tournament that Russ bet RGP he
would cash in, did Russ:
A) Play optimal tournament poker trying to win as much as possible
or
B) From the very beginning, do whatever it would take to barely scrape by
and cash, just to fullfill the bet?
Note that I'm not saying which one is right or wrong, I'm merely asking a
question.

Depending on the amount of the bet, and the tourney payout, A and B may well
be the same.

This is one of the things I don't get either. What the fuck was Fell
thinking about? Not long ago he was a free spirit, an easy-going poker pro
and part-time businessman. And now, voluntarily, he joins the freaking
Army. Is he out of his fucking mind? He's not a kid anymore. It ain't
like he's 18 or something. Somebody should slap Fell.
