Message: [QUOTE="DS3, post: 6477270, member: 407846"] You talk of bias so I'll remind you of the first line I wrote here... [B][I]'...trust me, hours later I still do not have a firm opinion'.[/I][/B] I have not once implied let alone stated she cheated, what I have underlined however that her story keeps changing. I'll quote myself again regarding Doug Polk... [I][B]'Polk actually concludes that he believes she likely cheated but is not 100% sure and asks people to be objective'.[/B][/I] I have also stated that Garret is putting himself in a bad position... [B][I]'Don't get me wrong, Garrett is going to look dreadful if he keeps maintaining she cheated...but, she is has not helped herself at times'.[/I][/B] What you are doing, it seems, is not reading what I am saying, but what you think I am saying. That's ironic in terms of the situation we are discussing - leaping to conclusions. So for instance, you have not bothered or been able to supply clips of Garrett losing his cool for example. Which is because Garrett is calm and (as many say) gentlemanly at the table. But once again, I do not care if Garrett trashes his reputation by overreacting - I am not a tween crushing on Harry Styles- if he lost the plot, so be it. That said, my main gripe with Robbi is she can't stop revising her story and avoids direct answers. Having said multiple times I am not convinced she cheated, I will, again, point out why I think she is a BS artist. I actually bothered to listen to the part of Joey Ingrams podcast where she came on line for about 45 minutes with a ten minute revisit later. I made notes where (as others spotted) she made questionable or contradictory statements in ten areas with some of them just irrelevant. That leads me to believe she has something of a compulsion to misrepresent in general. For example. Robbi comes on stream and says she was new to poker and essentially started playing during the pandemic. The problem being as Doug Polk pointed out (slightly off at a decade) she has a Hendon Mob profile which dates back to 2015. Why the BS regarding that? Then she later claims that she has been a bio-tech executive for 20 odd years. This is where thing get amusing. Searching for Robbi Lew's age is a little difficult as she appears to fudge this as well as all I could find was between 30 and 32, or 30 and 35. Which led some wag to ask if that meant she started in the bio-tech industry at 15? Robbi admitted that yes, she was friends/partners with RIP, but was not pushed by Ingram on why they had not disclosed this. Then it was unclear what piece he had of her (it is thought to be 100% with them going 50/50 on profits). Though she Tweeted Garrett had threatened her, it turns out that she felt the 'atmosphere was threatening', Garrett did not threaten her or demand she repay him the money. Then there was further confusion about her hand and then she claimed she even had to ask Ryan Feldman if she checked her cards after saying repeatedly she had not. It was timed by several as a 17 second check of her holding. I then even bothered to listen to about 20 minutes or so of Nick Vertucci waffling around the matter and saying little more than Hustler was going to bring in independent investigators to look at the recent streams. Earlier there seem to have been some fluff about a big announcement that Hustler had 'identified' something taking place on the stream, but Vertucci would not be drawn further so I am not sure that was anything more than an attempt to blow the situation up further. So, to be crystal. I am not convinced Robbi cheated but am convinced she possesses a flexi-truth approach to life. It probably has been inconsequential to date, until it emerged on a live stream watched by tens of thousands. I am not bothered whether Hustler clears her or not as I think Hustler walk a fine line between regulating their players and wanting another situation to blow up. Vertucci actually claimed on the podcast that they don't have time to vet people properly, so if they show with a big bankroll, they get to play. Regarding Garrett, either he comes with some hard evidence or he is going to look petty. As I have already said, those two need to sort it out amicably or they are both going to look bad. [/QUOTE]
