david williams -- i am prepared to get flamed


Recommended Posts

I would say everything on the "King of Vegas" is theatrics.   That is one reason why the show is entertaining to watch, but will only last one season.  Once you have seen in once there is no reason to watch again.
I will watch only as long as the baccarat dealer is still in the competition. I fully appreciate her methods for distracting the other players. :club:

I wouldn't be suprise if David Williams is out of poker in the next five years. He doesn't seem to have a stable game to be a continous winner. Being overly agreesive is one thing but bluffing without rhyme and reason like I have seen Williams do many times is another.

GSN has told players to play up to the cameras for their specials, so, only take what you see him doing on GSN with a grain of salt

A little off topic and I am sorry but I was wondering how many people either play Mtg or used to play Mtg that post here? also just to maybe help non mtg players realize what he was accused of, It would be like scuffing the sides of the aces in a deck and then letting your opponent shuffle it and you cut it afterwards(everytime) in a game with only one opponent. ( pretty close to it, although you would each get your own deck, so you wouldnt be manipulating his ability to get an ace as much as you are assuring you do get one) He claimed that he had borrowed the four marked cards from another player Bob Maher was a cheater that had false tournament reports filed to inflate his rating although he performed very well after reaching the pro tour.(Bob Maher- now appears on a card with flavor text that reads "greatness at any cost.") Thunder Keller, John Murphy, Noah"exclusive" Boeken, Eric Froelich, Mattias Andreson('04 wsop ME kid that screamed alot), Jordan Berkowitz, were all former Mtg players. All of them better than me at both Mtg and poker, sadly. Flame away for the depth of my geek knowledge...PS. I do have to give Dave WIlliams some props though as he has signed copies of the cards he was caught cheating with for a friend of mine, and didnt get mad about it.

I did see DW blow-up on the KOV. Very uncalled for, but it was in the heat of the moment. He plays very agressive. I heard him say on FT's Playing Like the Pro's that he did make a lot of foolish plays and bluffs after the WSOP, but now he has seen the error of his ways and is trying to play with a more conservative approach. Whether that works or not, only time will tell.

Thunder Keller works out a lot...
Donut to mouth curls dont count.
Heh, you should see recent pics, he's dropped over a hundred pounds and counting. However, I got no dukes on saying if he works out. I admit I have never seen it. :PDavid was indeed banned for a period of time by the DCI. I was working the Pro Tour actively when it happened. Thomas is not a public ranter in terms of gaming. I don't think I'd ever see him flip off the camera or anything like that. I have seen him get pretty annoyed at his computer screen occassionally, but have yet to hear the words "Ray, can you get me a new laptop, I threw the old one in the pool.":PRay

I thought the commerical looked cool for this show with Williams, Ng, and The Mouth. After watching 5 minutes of it, I realized the drama was so played up for the cameras it annoyed me. However, the blow-up that Williams had seemed sincere. Even though me may have had a decent reason to be upset but he took it WAY to far.I am personally a fan of his, so I would like to give him the benifit of the doubt and say it was cameras...but it sure looked sincere to me.
