It's good they all had a conversation rather than going back and forth on X...these guys should all come to some type of agreement and bury the hatchet
@@recPokerFish That will never happen because it was GMan who brought it up. He said Luda's play against GT the fish was not suspicious but then pivoted into something else which eventually led them to where they are now.
His seminars on how to invest in property are far sketchier. Look at some of the complaints online. His company applies for new credit cards for the victims then maxes them out paying for this trash.
If anyone didn’t believe Garrett’s words before, all you have to do is watch Feldmans tone and responses. I know Garrett is telling the truth just from tone inflection and stumbling by the owners.
I can't stand how GA handled the scandal but you're exactly right. Feldman is lying through his teeth and vertucci won't say shit because he knows he's not good at lying lol. Garrett definitely telling the most truth here.
Why can't the commentary and everyone else have the delayed screen... The live screen being "off" or non existent.... Or even if there's a issue at the table... Someone can go back to the live feed in real time and just look for that one issue and back off it goes. That actually sounds like it should be the right thing to do.
@dawnkeener9836 I don't see any reasonable excuse for having the whole cards live for anyone to see in production. Even a 5 minute delay would prevent cheating or cheating allegations from live cards.
@@Lou-Meatskavitch you have to understand that if they're readable at all (i.e, through a chip in the cards) they can be viewed by ANYONE at any time with access to the RFID reader that interprets the chips. This is the risk of live streams. I miss the old school days where they just had the glass and the players at high stakes games were instructed to keep their hole cards on it so it can be viewed from underneath. Since the stream is delayed anyway, why not just do away with the RFID chipped decks and play old school? Nobody h as access to anyone's hold cards until they are tabled. This obviously takes away the knowledge that someone will have watching the stream of seeing what people fold vs a big bet/bluff. With that knowledge comes the ability to exploit it. IF a stream is going to do this, it is their responsibility to ensure the integrity of the game and not allow ANYONE to view the hold cards during a session.
If Ryan admitted they were gay, and he was embarrassed about it . . it would be an incredibly good defense on why he was hiding their being roomates. They both have a ton of cash and would not need roomates
Feldman and only Feldman has access to live hole cards during live streams. And Luda and Feldman lived together for over a year, u all don't think they have some sort of plans to scam others? Hmmmm😮
@@Lou-Meatskavitch i think Ryan didn't mention it because he didn't want anyone to think there was anything going on and ruin the stream dynamic..i don't think they were cheating
That isn't true at all. When the J4 cheating hand went down, it came out that employees in the back have access to the cards. The guy named Bryan Sagbigsal in particular took $5,000 off Robbi's stack (as payment for the inside information allegedly) and then disappeared after that night when the whole cheating scandal blew up.
Smartest thing Nick could have done other than not had this conversation go down. Nick is a real estate hustler/con artist that made his money from selling real estate courses (think Trump University only worse). Nick knew this was getting bad for them and shut it down before more damage could be don't. I think Nick is scum, but that was the smart move.
Yeah Nick all about the truth until it's truth he doesn't want to hear or have anyone else hear that's for sure. Feldman was prolly signaling Vertucci, "Cut him off NOW!!" He's killing us!!! Bang Ding Ow!!!!
I wouldn’t say that, he’s just sticking up for his friend. And Garret made the stream look bad by bullying a girl out of money she won. To be guilty it has to be beyond reasonable doubt, and there’s so much doubt idt it’s even close. I like gman tho and wish he played on stream more.
"Bullying" ?!?!?! And you hvae any proof of this as no one there, including her, never made that claim at the time sounds like you are grasping for straws to affirm your cognitive biases without a shred of proof@@santaclause3487
@@andersnielsen6044those who lost to him care. Sexuality no one cares but if your lover can give you hole cards and then you can take the person on a sexcation together thats suspect.
J4 and the events afterwards were so crazy, Garrett is totally right to feel like he was cheated. HCL were more concerned about the shows reputation rather than exposing and eliminating cheating. AA vs 68 wasn't suspicious at all as those flops happen all the time. I've never seen any player who's never played before call an all-in with Jack high on a board like that never mind someone who was buying into a game for thousands of dollars and had a years professional coaching. There's no way she misread her hand considering she checked her role cards and didn't say she misread her straight away. The guy who was sacked for pinching money off her stack knows the truth who apparently wrote a letter of apology using her own unique grammar. Why doesn't HLC ask him and expose the truth of what happened? Trying to damage Garretts reputation isn't going to resolve this situation.
"HCL were more concerned about the shows reputation rather than exposing and eliminating cheating. " Couldn't have said it better myself, it was very obvious from that point onward to anyone who wins money playing poker that something was very, very wrong about that hand; I stopped watching HCL as a result because I could not accept that there was no wrongdoing discovered.
@@sinningiwhat if the automatic shuffling machine is stacking the deck to make seat 4 a looser and seat 9 the winner. Or just letting that seat know that he’s got the winning hand,do not fold your hand!! It could be any small device hidden in the body or in the chair.
@@christopheradams9092 are you saying automatic card shuffler are rigged no way jeje I believed they are but what Evers man if garret knows he was cheated I'm sure he has been cheating aswell so when they did it to him now he wants to come out and blow everybody's cover lol
Ryan trying to bring up someone was living with Garett is so weak man that is a childish response due to Garett saying Luda was Ryan’s roommate. This is starting to get fishy like why doesn’t Luda play on Fridays 🤔??? He only plays against the seniors is very weird to me how he doesn’t ask to play on Fridays
When he says it’s not about the money, I have no problem believing it was about the principle for him. Him getting paid the money back is totally vindication in my eyes
That woman is so bad at poker it is laughable. Any 5nl reg has more skill than her, other than one area, which I imagine some of the male regs have bigger. Sometimes people play so horribly it is actually good in that specific situation.
Garrett's got a point with Ryan posting about the rating scale. That had nothing to do with the issue at hand. It was just another jab at G-man. Ryan then saying that if Garrett never cared about money why did he ask for the 135k back? Like dude that's pocket change to him. That wasn't the point of the scandal. Ryan's responses have been non-linear and just redirecting the conversation over and over.
Gman has me rated a 1 because I make the straddle bigger not smaller which scares him so I might never get to play him but he's a good player when he's getting lucky and playing people he can push around with a larger chip stack
135k everyone cares about imo, he donated it and took the write off just like it was his cash cuz he didn’t play the rest of the year and he needed it imo.
Are these spaces archived and can be accessed publicly? There was a while where poker spaces were getting spicey but if i didnt catch them live i have no idea how to find them. I always hoped people would post them to youtube but i never had luck finding them
lying about what?.. whocares if Luda and him were friends, there are a lot of other compromised things that could happen.. Garret threw Airball, Beans and a lot of people under the bus for no reason in the past that had nothing to do with J4..Gman was off his game those days leading up J4 bluffing with air..he's a good player but should've never taken the money back and talked with Ryan privately after the stream.
It's funny, but from someone who has no skin in the game.. I am always finding myself believing Garrett. His point of view is always most logical in all of these scenarios, where drama is popping off..
Same here. I really didn't know much about either of them or the drama but having listened to both sides it's very obvious that Garret is in the right here and the other dude has shit to hide.
Except for the j4 hand. Robbie took a lie detector test n passed. HCL investigated n found nothing. She would need to be in collusion with nick n feldman. Hard to believe.
Ryan and Vertucci are supposed to be successful businessmen. Assuming Nick also knew Luda was Ryan's roommate, how could it not be relevant that this information be shared with vested parties for integrity's sake? The optics alone scream that this fact should prohibit Luda from playing or at the very least, all parties including players should be advised before they commit to play.
Holy crap is this for real? Garrett is destroying HCL. Man they should never have crossed him. He knows too much. Garrett demonstrates that Ryan is Luda's roommate!? This makes me question what is going on with HCL. Garrett thank God!
This kind of poker drama is so age old its kind of interstesting that we get to see it unfold in front of our eyes becuase of technology advancements and live streaming poker. People have always been picky about who they play with since poker was invented.
Jamie Gold is a weasel. check out his KK against sammy Farhas AA, when jamie thinks he's good he wants to clean sammy out but when he gets suspicious of AA he begs for mercy.
You can only make assumptions from past experiences. At underground games the massage girls and ones wearing cat ears are usually in on the scam . They might not know details but they will distract you .
@@AlexDuvallI like 80 proof, it just taste better.😅 The reason is because once a cheater, always a cheater. And a massage girl will give u a happy ending. What will she do for $15,000?
@@INKovari didn't see your comment on whatever video you claim. Anyone who has ever watched a western movie has seen the bar maid or the "entertainment" women are always in on the scam. I've been to high end home games in LA, Miami and New York where they have the servers in skimpy lingerie pouring drinks, sitting on guys laps the whole time giving signals. It's all theatrics so you miss the cheating going on. I'm guessing in this case she's in on it. She's been the masseuse in every hand of his 350k winnings this year
All of them are shady. Gman, Nick V, Ryan, Airball, Luda. All these characters cannot be trusted. Do not trust anyone when it comes to gambling unless that’s a long-time friend you had prior to gambling. Everyone is a snake in the grass 🐍
How is Gman a snake? You can not like his takes, or the whole j4 response, but I have never heard a single person question his integrity at the table. I could give two shits about personality clashes and disagreements. As long as it's straight up when the cards are dealt, that's all that matters. Luda has had tons of accusations thrown at him, and I still haven't heard a convincing answer that nothing is going on.
@@randylahey8207 whilst I agree he seems the best of a bad bunch (hard not to next to the HCL grifters) I really don't trust anyone who shoots down someone else showing messages to prove something. Like if someone was lying about me you're dam straight I would show the messages showing it. This whole honour system whilst I lie and make things up can f right off. Keep your receipts I'll keep mine.
@@randylahey8207the Jewish owner squabbling with his Jewish player. Maybe the G was privy to Ryan and his shadiness and looking at hole cards. There’s obviously something going on with these 2 guys.
@@michaelwillis4532 that's where you're going with this? Even though it's one Jew yelling at another one for scamming him, who's probably sleeping with a guy obviously not Jewish unless it was by mid life transformation? LMAO, you are something else buddy. Keep that brain boiling away, it's full of.... Well....🙄😆😆😆😆
Sadly that's what this latest controversy is doing. Anyone with a brain is going think that HCL is a scam. First off Vertucci and Feldman should not be allowed to play in their own game. Secondly, "roommates" or whatever that means should not be allowed to play in the owners' game. There is something called the "appearance of impropriety".
do you always go around telling everyone how awesome you think you are? Not a sole cares what you think one way or the other this video is not all about you or your proclaiming your awesomenes... you have zero credibility, zero proof (this coming form someone who does not believe Ryan in the least but yur post is extremely stupid)
honestly there is alot of shady evidence/circumstances and people surrounding HCL.. and HCL did have an employee stealing chips off of players stacks and so many hands arent read by the card reader graphics? very sketch
All you need to do is watch about 5 minutes of Nick Vertucci and then you’ll see someone unworthy of trust. The dude was a cop,real estate guru and a poker room owner called Hustler run by him and a Jew.
Feldman is not a very smart person when it comes to hiding his shady dealings. GMan seems straight with his questions and Feldman is a child trying to change the subject without answering. Also I'm not a fan of Gman
I’m usually never suspicious of players but luda has always pinged my ‘radar’ and it’s when watching HCL. Had an internal “this guy seems off” feeling without ever fully believing it, but this getting brought up has me like hmmm. It’s not so much the hand I find weird it’s Luda’s response to the accusation. If he truly honestly didn’t do anything off, then he wouldn’t have had to stay silent so long before saying anything. He was trying to choose his words wisely imo
Feldman also tries to hit back at Garrett saying if he didn't care about money then why try and get it back from Robbi? Well if he did care about that money why donate it all away? Ryan's argument falls flat
It's waste Garrett money that he donated. It literally belongs to Robbie. Case closed. Garrett does have another job. Gambling on poker is his full time job. Nothing works for free. He was attempting to rebuild his image after that accusations of cheating Frisco.
For those who knows all the things happening about that j4 hands from her calling to that employee stealing her 15k and thinks she’s not cheating, get your brain checked 😢
Lol ... back when Feldman was running the Bike, he'd go from commentating and seeing live cards to then hopping into the game and no one said anything.
@joey Ingram totally lost contact with Garrett after this phone call, totally disrespectful to not let someone finish speaking, extremely un professional how Nick cut Garrett from speaking.
The thing is, if you’re a smart cheater, you’re not going to make it super obvious like Robbi and Postle did. You’re gonna do it in a way that just looks like a questionable play ends up with you getting lucky. Not saying Luda cheated in that hand, all I’m saying is, there could be a ton of cheaters that no one has ever had any clue about because they were smart about it.
Cheating in live poker can only happen in 1 of 2 ways. Either the cheater has hidden tech that allows him to comm with an inside person or cheater has x-ray vision tech to see through cards. I doubt Robbie used either!
@@timmhonutube I didn’t say “how” she cheated was super obvious. The fact that she “did” cheat was super obvious. You can’t cheat by making absolutely absurd plays that it’d be hard to believe even the best players in the world could ever make. She made these ridiculous plays every now and then. But since that hand? Nothing even in the same universe for her in regards to her play. She now plays like your average 1/2 nit, scared to call even with dominating hands vs complete bluffs. Far cry from calling all in with a J high don’t cha think?
@@OJuggernautO It's not obvious because she didn't cheat. Still zero proof she cheated, more likely she is just a flipping idiot and made a stupid play that worked out.
Love this post Alex thanks for the content. I feel Garrett was good in all his points and Feldman sounded like he was hiding something. Sad cause i miss playing on streams but because of the cheating risk, not worth it. God bless.
The funny thing is only Vertucci and Luda are the ones whose being massaged all night long and the only two whose got very close connection to Feldman. I agree with someone who mentioned the masseuse could give signals, but not for every hand, cuz they understand they have to cheat in a smart way
Garrett has been on the shelf forever and it’s SO clear to see his batteries have been charging. 🤣 I’m not an envious person but no fucking way do I want to play poker with him I’d get smoked. I’d gladly go for lunch and have a beer with him though. The dude is living his best life and he’s got so much ammo in his pocket. I love it.
