jizzy15 0 Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 Anyone read this article in the newest cardplayer magazine. http://www.cardplayer.com/poker_magazine/a...5472&m_id=65590I don't know html code so just put it in your browser. Anyway, it mentions Cassidy and Bartholdi took 50% of eachother in the 2006 WPT CHampionship. Crazy to think that Cassidy busted out, and still made almost 2 million in that tournament. Do you guys think that after a win like that, Bartholdi was kickin himself for giving away 50% of himself? Link to post Share on other sites
Steamed Rice 0 Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 yeah i would be kicking myself toobut he hadnt made a name for himself yetif he kept busting out of tourneys i would want a stake too Link to post Share on other sites
XXEddie 0 Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 yeahbut if cassidy won, he'd fell greatI didnt know Bartholdi was part of the crew, but he did look familair Link to post Share on other sites
SandmanJD 0 Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 This is false Joe B was backed into the tournament by Joe C and he got more like 30% not 50%. Link to post Share on other sites
Wandigo 1 Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 This is false Joe B was backed into the tournament by Joe C and he got more like 30% not 50%."He returned to Ballagio's $10-$20 no-limit game and continued to run well. Along the way, he and Cassidy took half of each other at the 2006 World Poker Tour Championship."Straight from the CardPlayer magazine sitting in front of me. Link to post Share on other sites

SandmanJD 0 Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 I dont care what anyone thinks but if u believe everything you read I feel bad for you. I know one of Joe B's roomate and he said that joe was put into the event they did not swap %'s it sounds better for a magazine article that they swaped but whatever take what I say with a grain of salt for all I care but I have no reason to make **** like this up. Watch the cardplayer interview of him after he wins, when I first saw it I was like wow he seems unmoved for someone who just won close to 4 mil but when I heard he was stalked into the event it made more sense.

SandmanJD 0 Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 Well when you say Cassidy and Bartholdi took 50% of each other in the 2006 WPT CHampionship, it sounds like Joe B put up his own 25 grand to play when in reality he put up no money. Link to post Share on other sites
ROGUE06 0 Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 Regardless of if it is true or not, Cassidy is one rich guy. I really hope to see him play more tournaments. I have never seen him on the WSOP before along with Dags who is another young talented player with very little TV time. Link to post Share on other sites

Bgfoot 0 Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 Sandman is correct, I was at Bellagio a couple of days later watching Joe B. play in the 200-400NL cash game and he dusted off a $200,000.00 and change and said he was really going back 10-20NL game. Link to post Share on other sites
Waffles2003 1 Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 From reading this article, it sounds like this Joe B. has no bankroll management and will probably piss all his money away (party, poker,...)Good for the economy, bad for him. Link to post Share on other sites
Joe Cassidy 0 Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 Hey all. Joe Cassidy here. So I finally registered an account after much encouragement by Daniel to make myself more visible (don't be surprised if this is my last post ) on the internet and elsewhere -- not for his benefit, but mine... anyway, I saw this topic and thought I could clear it up. Joe and I did not swap 50%, but I didn't exactly stake him either. Since he was already ahead for me from the the 2005 wsop and the gold strike and live action, the money we invested in the 25k event was actually half his (not 30% and not all mine and not a swap). We basically both put up 12.5 for him to play the tournament, which means we were both invested, and definitionally, he wasn't really being staked. Needless to say, he no longer requires my help, but we'll probably swap in the future, and if we don't, I'll be routing for him. Link to post Share on other sites

SweetDaddyFreak 0 Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 So how many think this is actually him?He doesnt sound half bad either way, but its kinda weird his first post and first registration happen just as a thread got up about himI'll say no for now until further verification...from ErikRyland of course Link to post Share on other sites
