Balloon guy 158 Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 Have to say I take BKs side on this, but only because it was his honest reaction right after it happened. He is playing to win, anything else is not acceptable. That's the correct attitude to have here IMO.If he posted this next week than I think the flames would be in order.But right after it happened/ Way too much to ask a person to be humble and contrite.

TB17 0 Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 This has nothing to do with jealousy. Feel free to head to:http://www.pokerhaus.com/forum I don't post there, or plan to, but loooooooool at this not being about jealousy. So what are you feeling when you see a kid getting 25k+ and like 31242554k last week? Don't kid yourself, we're all feeling jealous. Some people don't want to be satisfied with just making a FT. Have you noticed that most of the top players around here, not just Andy, are never pleased when they don't win and show their bad beat?This is a lot of money we're all playing for, if Daniel lost a big pot in a WPT championship this way, would you be saying "well Daniel you're just a crybaby whiner, you just won 120k for 6th place that's more than us $20 MTTers play?" Nah, I guarantee 95% of the posters would be sympathetic towards him. Link to post Share on other sites

Nah, I guarantee 95% of the posters would be sympathetic towards him.I am not jealous. Why does everyone or anyone have to be jealous? I don't quite understand that. I have already stated what bothers me and it has nothing to do with the amount of money he wins. There are plenty of people on here just as good if not better who carry themselves in a better way. You being one of them. You can be pissed, you can be bummed over that hand but you can post your reaction to it and other things without acting like you are gods gift to poker. Cause seriously, noone in this topic is gods gift to poker.Regarding the Daniel comment. You are right, 95% of the posters suck on DN's teet any chance they get. I got a post somewhere in one of the "DN is having a bad year" topics where I clearly posted that I did not feel sorry for the guy making bank and traveling the world. Yeah it sucks to not be winning but boo freaking hoo. I also have to expect that DN may be frustrated but he never would act like a child about it at least not in the open.

irishguy 14 Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 All Bkice did was comment on his frustration in a thread that was made about him. If its not jealousy that has started this arguement towards him it is stupidity. To say he is showing any attitude or no humility when he is simply defending himself is ridic. I am also shocked that a poker forum is full of people that don't understand his frustration at not winning regardless the buy in. Link to post Share on other sites

I don't see anything wrong with someone getting this frustrated because they did not win. I am in no way on Bkice's nuts as some people put it but its obvious he takes his game seriously and if he did not he wouldn't be as successful as he is. We all have different scales when it comes to our BR but its all the same when it comes down to booking a win.I'm about to make a Chris Crocker-esque video in defense of BKice. He seems like a friendly brown bear.lol Link to post Share on other sites
sagedecarte 0 Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 dont know bkice, other than seeing lots of ft rail threads for him , but all i will say is its perfectly justified to be frustrated and upset at losing in any activity you put effort into. Link to post Share on other sites

Whatever 1 Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 I also have to expect that DN may be frustrated but he never would act like a child about it at least not in the open.Um, actually, you're wrong. After busting in like 5th or something in one of his two FTs at this year's WSOP he told the reporter to never congratulate him (or poker players) I forget for not winning. He said something like condolences are more in order. He did it with a smile as I remember but he was obviously pissed and just wanted out of there.BK could've handled it better but I understand why he didn't. Link to post Share on other sites

I have to agree with Balloon Guy, we all play to win and if we don't we're pissed. The point of it being $10 or $100k makes no difference. (or shouldn't) Link to post Share on other sites
