Crusher Pride: Our own Guru at 2007 WSOP!

IMO - it's up to Guru what he wants to do with ergo's account and to my opinion we all can scew up, but deserve a second chance.

This is in-between Guru and ergo and I won't judge anyone - it's not my place to do so.

Never the less - this negativity just bothers me ...

I say this much - ergo is a fellow Finn and I've learned to know him well. He's not a bad person at all. He's been great and always helpful to me.
Too bad if Guru and myself are the only ppl to remember that.
No offense to anyone - just my opinion, again.

Again - PEACE, LOVE and G O O D, POSITIVE thinking, please!

THE END!

I'm done with this topic and just hope all works out for the best as I think we all should.

Almost ALL of us Crushers hate negativity. That is one of the most essential things that sets us apart from other forums.

But I must say that if I had the bad taste to ask someone "How much you got?" (translates to "What's in your personal wallet?") over and over and over again and that person simply made no comment, I would, bad taste and all, take the hint and simply let it drop.

I most certainly would never post as rude a message as ergopro did, which actually forced our Guru to stop discreetly overlooking the low-class question and make a reply, altho he obviously did not want to, in order to defend his integrity, which never should have been questioned, especially by a Crusher!!!!!

This is so unlike the ergopro I thought I knew that I can't help but wonder if someone stold his identity and made those posts.

I don't see how anyone could fault our Guru for his response. He has proved his remarkable integrity many times over and one would have to be be blind or brand new here not to have known that. To attack his honor that way was far more tasteless than the original question.

I hope with all my heart that ergopro soon realizes that he over-reacted and backed Guru into a corner where he had no choice but to respond as he did. And then returns to the ergopro I have always known and liked and remembers he is a Crusher.

Then he will know the only appropriate thing to do.

I think when you plough through so many days, bust so many players and come so close, the money doesn't matter. I would'a been so crushed (no pun intended) of having come so far to have busted out like that I wouldn't play another game for weeks. No way in the world of getting away from the hand. I hope this post doesn't re-live bad memories, the positive I take from it is, crepe happens, in poker it happens on a daily basis.
