Mods - I enjoy reading a good few posts around this place, why must it be wasted following this fella... i've seen a good few Blonde boys been banned who offer something to this place....
Let him go....
Exactly what would you like me banned for? I haven't insulted any 'current' members I haven't grimmed anyone I haven't commited any crime against anyone I haven't stolen any money from any members, past or present I have only told the truth I have only given my opinions, which after all is the purpose of an internet forum.

Cliff notes for the last 6 months...
Poker: Pre Jan 2010. - Long term winning player. Modest but regular income peaking at circa £18ph playing £1/2 cash at DTD during the second half of 2009.
Poker: Post Jan 2010 - Big (for me) Losing player. Couldn't do anything right. ran a 20k plus bankroll down to around 7k in the space of a few weeks. Lost confidence, and if truth be told, became a little gun shy. Took a short break while trying to figure out what to do.
Option 1
Continue to play live cash, but at smaller stakes. Pro's- Softer game and less pressure on diminishing bankroll. Cons- Harder to beat the (relatively) higher rake.
Option 2
Give online cash a real go. Pro's - Lower expenses, more choice, option to multi-table, smaller rake, rakeback. Cons - Tougher games online v live, need to use tracking software etc, less fun.
Option 3
Online tourrneys - Pro's - Love em. I'm a tourney player at heart and I made a living from online comps for several years... Cons - Variance. Bankroll too small.
Option 4
Quit and go back to work. Pro's - Instantly stop hemorrhaging money, become part of the real world again, earn a regular wage, keep normal hours. Cons - Don't want to quit, go back to work, become part of real world, earn regular wage, keep normal hours.....
Also, (And this is just between us, I wouldn't admit it in public) I secretly like the notion of being a "professional poker player" I mean, me, a professional poker player. (Don't laugh, It makes me blush just to type it)
See I know that I'm supposed to say "It's not as much fun as you think" and "It's just a job really, not very glamorous, just a daily grind, I don't make much money" and I would say that, if anyone asked me. But deep down, in my secret, private self, I really love it. I wouldn't admit this to a soul, but I suppose I'm a little bit proud of the fact that I managed to make a go of it for several years.
So, what to do, what to do, quit or go on?
I was wrestling with this problem when fate took a hand....
Well, having heard some of the old Ladbrokes MTT players singing your praises I could see a return to the bigger games as a way forward, although with having to dodge 6 or 7 bullets at each table these days instead of 1 or 2, maybe not! So I'm going for lottery win

Yep, think Tank is getting there......looks like true colours are showing through in many cases and many getting wise and confronting those that were once untouchable. Also the sycophants are getting distressed that their heroes have been rumbled.
Just my opinion as an independant thinker.....if that's still allowed!

FWIW i thought i would put my thoughts
Marc is no question a very talented poker player. Most of you posting on here would love to be within 50% as good as him at tournament poker I'm sure . Arrogant , obnoxious , outspoken , cocky , and probably this is because he's way too young to have won so much money.He obviously hasn't the wise years of experience to respect it . Easy come easy go ! He's been stupid with his winnings. Yes both as a player and a backer too.He thought he could gamble his way out of a very ridiculous situation he got himself into considering how much money he has won playing mostly online poker . However ,the posters on this forum and 2+2 need to appreciate just how it feels to win and then gamble away at least over £300k . I suggest almost all of you will have no idea whatsoever. Gambling on horses , roulette , sports betting on betfair ,poker ,flips for £1k .Winning huge sums makes you feel invincible . Ego overload !
He's not a bad person so lets end the witch hunt eh.
Marc please take some advise from some one twice your age who knows . 1.Pay em all back with interest and an apology as soon as you can . 2.Just stick to tournament poker 3.Don't post antagonising crap on poker forums or in poker chat rooms 4. Enjoy the money when you win again instead of degenerate gambling it all away. 5. Your friends will be friends whether you are broke or rolling in it. There's no need to buy people or try to impress.
And finally fwiw i would back you all day long for tournament poker if i was rolled enough but that don't mean i wanna be your mate : )
LOL, it gets funnier by the minute............tell the folk he owes 40K to that he's not a bad person! In the words of Littlejohn....'you couldn't make this up' !

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH,
Is it me or am I missing something?
Being a 'MOD' on Blondepoker...WGAF? It's not of any relevance in the real world or even in 'My own little world' where one of the saddos lives in!
OOOO, she might have looked at my PM's..LOL, unreal....sad fuckers.
AND, compared to childish giggling about his mates sexual abuse video and nicking 'looking after' a dead guys money, the modding stuff pales into insignificance.
Tikay, just one question - Why don't you just walk away, you seem like a very nice chap that is well thought of and has plenty of proper friends, do you really need to be involved with the excuseniks that sometimes make this place a laughing stock?

Does anyone else think this bad from a mod on P5's It looks like Marc has PM'd a mod asking for the thread to be removed as would I, another thread isn't going to makes things any easier if you're trying to put right your mistakes. The mod then copies and pastes his PM's into the thread http://www.pocketfives.com/f7/railtard1-ddfromds-scammer-595030/#post5674674Surely these are private? lolzzzzzzzzzzzz @ this - are you mentally deluded? - I mean why is it that you think that is ok, just because he is trying to put right his mistakes, it is disgusting behaviour, and the guy should be outed and a couple of kneecaps broken aswell! THIS IS THE LOWEST OF THE LOW!!!! You were doing ok until you described it needs a couple of broken kneecaps and the lowest of the low.Yep, spot on. Spot on about this before anyone spits out their dummy so your saying that he does not deserve this sort of treatment? Well, I know where you are coming from and I must admit that if someone took me for the sorts of money that are being talked about then I would seriously think about paying a visit with a 'persuader'! BUT.... These people that have been 'grimmed' are obviously stupid, or at best gullable and took a gamble (they will argue with that statement but step back and think about it and it is correct). The guy that did it is a complete knob, despite what his hero worshippers say....AND if I was playing big MTT's without worrying about the buy in money then i am sure I would show some cracking results. Seen it before, more than once, Sarah-Jayne on Ladbrokes was prime example. So yes, initial reaction, smash the bloke up but step back and get real, this would only turn you into a bigger knob than he. maybe you don't have as much money as some of us Maybe, maybe not...but if I had as much money as I owe I'm certain that I would have

LOL, this place gets funnier by the minute!
Is there anything some of you 'clowns' won't defend your 'poker friends' from? !!
AND... 'Surely these are private?' get a life, it's an internet forum not real life (although reading this forum it appears to be some of your lifes!!)
I thought Guy was a bit out of order with his response to you on the other thread... I was wrong,he was spot on +1mill Hit a nerve? You too?
