The *official* "whatever happened to?" thread

Greg "The Axxeman" Winters.

Strange fellow.

Just did a search for his posts on here and it seems like he's "done a Keys" and deleted everything he ever posted.

His only posts that seem to remain are ones that have been quoted by other posters.

Impressive HM listing though

In a parallel universe somewhere another Greg Winters has got all the gigs Tikay got from appearing on Poker Night Live.

He's TVs Mr Poker, this site is called axxemanpoker.com, he hobnobs with all sorts of Sky bigwigs and has had 3 or 4 sponsorship deals.

While the other Tikay is sitting in an old folks home sipping horlicks and mumbling manicly about Robbie Williams, concrete, Kara Scott, the railway network and allotments.

Until the nurse arrives with his latest dose of medication.

Hmmm.

I wonder if I have somehow stumbled across the identity of the internet person who caused Tony so much hassle a few years ago.

[ x ] Motive. Must have been super jealous at Tikay's success of which he thought he was more deserving as far superior poker analyst/personality.

[ x ] Opportunity. He used to spend all bloody day on internet poker forums.

[ x ] Personality. He was one strange cat.

I think I've cracked it.

interesting moment at just past 3mins.

Bob the Butcher also features.  Played with him at a cash game in Luton about 3 years ago.  As I was sat next to him, he liked to impart his advice on poker between hands.  He lost a lot and always moaned about his opponents play.  Also came up with stories about lots of names from the old days and just bitched about them.  Not a nice person IMO but was great for the game and was sad when he left.  Liked to kiss people too.

Making me jealous just watching a few seconds of that cash game they are featuring there.  How on earth was there so much money flying around then?!

Also this looks like his new venture.

Certainly seems like a character!

He used to be convinced internet poker was bent.

Which is all well and good.

Unless you happened to be employed by an internet poker company to be an analyst on internet poker!

Interesting chap, yes.

He caled blonde, the blondes, & me in particular, everything from a pig to a dog, & eventually he was either banned, or some sort of flounce of Chompyesque proportions arose & he disappeared, never to be seen again.

But wait.........

[The Camel]

To be fair, he is pretty damn good at this guitar playing lark.

I was impressed until he opened his mouth and started "singing".

Oh dear.

[tikay]

Like all good blonde haters, what was the most logical thing to do after disappearing from blonde?

Correct - open a new account with a "hidden" alias.

Why?

Because he needed a question answering, so help was required from the good (& bad) Ladies & Gents of blonde.

So, on September 16th, 2008, a new account appeared - "0800". (Or it may be O8OO I'm not exactly sure).

That account also eventually ended in tears, after a 5 year uneasy relationship.

So, for your New Years Eve Fun Quiz question.......

His last ever Post was this.

And the question is, who (whom?) was he addressing?

"....Showing complete disregard for other road users.  You need to grow the fuck up and stop acting like an overgrown 14 year old 'cause if you maim or kill someone doing this, your life will, effectively, be over.

I've long held the belief that you are an idiot and now I have the proof.  A complete waste of space..."

This is funny, when you consider what the market now decides is a good structure for a £50BI:

The blinds start at the usual 25/50 but they have given us - rather generously I feel - 3000 chips for our buy in. This could be a long night.

0800 was still active last year!

He's done the delete thing for many of his 0800 posts too.

Meany.

Can't find that post you refer to, was that deleted too?

Why did he hate blonde?

Was it pure jealousy of your success or something else?

I seem to remember some racist incident somewhere in the dim and distant past.
