Also is the WSOP thread still on here or been taken down?

[Google]

Why on earth are people saying "get yourself to the police station"?  Why the hell would he?

Because he's still a good guy he just lost his way

 Where has the money from wsop and further investments gone since your last deposit of £300

If you post this one more time i hope you get banned from the forum, EVERYONE of your posts has been about the post £300 action, just shut up about it now please, as soon as ive seen youve posted i know its going to be: "where has all the money gone since the last £300 depost" just stfu about it now you've gone on for 3 days about in on here and facebook, let me guess you're 18/19 years of age right? you sound like a stupid little clueless kid that's out of their depth, stop making yourself look cluless and be quiet now.

Lol your a prat end of story, im asking a question where on earth has the other money gone?

I'll give you two possibilities.

1. Lost on Betfair.

2. Balla lifestyle.

btw did you stake him? If not can you kindly stop trolling as those of us who did stake him for WSOP (still on live staking at top of page!) are pretty sure where its gone...DUCY?

Like most on this thread, I have no exposure to this, and am lurking on here cos its a fascinating (if thats the right word) turn of events.

Nearly as fascinating tho is how many randoms from the internets, who have no personal involvement in this and probably haven't even been in the same breathing space as Neil Blacthly in their entire life, are ranting and raving and keep posting the same stuff over and over and over again.  

Leave this thread to people who are either personally involved/actually have a constructive input.  

Very good post,hope you stick around.

Evening All, I haven’t actually invested in Blatchs scam however I do and quite recently, have some good knowledge of this type of person and will quickly share it with you so you can see how these types of people have the same characteristics.

I have a friend who has done a very similar thing with his friends so have experienced all the excuses, lies, BS etc etc here are some of the things I can compare!

1 - His family may well be bailing him out. My Friends mother bailed him out 21k, 2 years later 20k and more recently 3 months ago 19k. All through his gambling problems, taking money by deception (£100 here, £200 there) and just trying to spin it up (bookie roulette machines and online roulette). So this does happen, I guess a parents love for their kids?! Who knows!

2 - The excuses are the same. Both Blatch and my friend just try to buy time. A recent excuse was that he had put £300 into a bank deposit box as they were closed (however you cant do this without a card to that bank to open the slot and put your details in the cash point machine) so clearly a lie. However the other person believed him and was on the phone to the bank saying "he definitely put it in there" etc etc. But it just gave him 1 more week to find the money

3 - He has no care about his friends / no conscience. My Friend always managed to get money off people because he had (over the years) built up a good reputation, good worker, and generally good guy and because people generally cared about him however, he doesn’t give a fk about the effect him taking as little as 200£ off a mate can effect their life (family, kids etc), as long as the sob story manages to get him his chance to have a spin on the roulette!!

4 - He also managed to hide his gambling problem for years, and then convinced everyone he was clean and was going to GA and would pay everyone back as soon as he could. He actually was def going to GA but this was to buy him more time!!!!!

5 - he offered friends (who did not know about his problems/debts etc) a 'investment opportunity' regarding buying/renovating property with a quick large return however fortunately word was starting to spread and he never got the money at which point he turned once again to his mother (who was convinced he had sorted his problems out) and she once again took a loan out (as he had drained all her savings) and paid off his debts. This time to some very nasty people who basically gave him a time frame to get the 12k he owed or he would have his legs broke!!

Its all come to a head recently with him, and the agreement with his friends is that the only way to help him is to stop helping him. No one is going to bail him out, lend him money or offer him anywhere to stay. No one any longer is keeping his problems a secret as they did before. By ousting him, hopefully it shames him into getting some kind of help and actually sorting his life out.

If I could give you a bit of advice, I would say DO NOT write the money off. Keep up the pressure with him. You have to remember now that the guy has been found out. He obviously doesn’t care about you or he wouldn’t have stolen your money, so now he has been shamed - why would he start caring now??? He has been ruined in his friend circles/poker world, he will hardly be able to ever show his face again bar a miracle....so why would he try and give you your money back? if he pays it back...nothing changes, still not trusted and will never be liked again. So if he can get away without paying you a penny it doesn’t make sense for him to pay it back.

He is definitely buying time with this 30 day thing. Those that have lost money, keep the pressure up. Those that know where he lives go round to his house and confront him. It’s easy to reply to an email, but confront someone and they may shock you!! its likely he will tell you everything.

I feel for you all, seen it and been burned before myself. Keep up the pressure, go to the papers?? Name and shame him so no one gets done again. Good luck to everyone I hope you all get every penny back.

Post from another thread- someone called wilfuljoker who's worked with addicts- thought it was interesting:

Having worked with addicts for the last 25 years this whole scenario is very familiar. A lot of the deceit of others is tied up with the self-deceit and the last post by Neil typifies a large dose of self-pity about the situation he finds himself in. He actually presents the prospect of working for a living as some big sacrifice not recognizing that most of the people who invested in him will have been working in a proper job with poker as a sideline. The more times people have a go at him the more he will feel sorry for himself until he decides that he is being victimised and this will give him permission to think "f*ck it - this lot don't deserve me killing myself to give them their money back." And voila - he'll let himself off the hook. I think that Neil is a bit of an anachronysm: if this had happened in the 1960s nobody would have been surprised (in fact I think that Stu Unger had periods when his life/debts would have looked very like this). It shows how much the poker business has changed that we are surprised when someone typifies a degen attitude, gambling recklessly, ripping people off, living above their means and chasing their money. And I'd put money on the fact that secretly he thinks he will pay people back by using his meagre pay packet to gamble and spin it up. Everything suggests he needs professional help but I suspect he won't get it even if he is subject to criminal proceedings.
