For over two years, she has been defaming me. Many players were shocked by her one-sided account. I stayed in Asia and could not return to the US to confront her. Only my closest friends would relay these rumors, so I found out about them very late in the game. When it comes to maneuvering, scheming, manipulating poker games, and reading human nature, she is leagues ahead — truly an expert at this. I once lived by the old saying: Take a step back, and you will find boundless space. On top of that, the poker world itself sits on the fringes of the gray zone. Perhaps she has made too many enemies, which eventually led to her dispute with Cye. I had no intention of reopening this old incident from 2023.
Since my name came up, a short note.
Yes, I played the Bike game in 2023, for about an hour, and had a small piece of one player. It was over two years ago. Hank and Alan have already described what happened that night, and my recollection is roughly the same. I wasn't there for the settlement afterwards, so I won't speak to it.
As for C Ye and Britney, that's between them. I wasn't involved and I'm not picking a side.
If I can offer one thought: this all feels bigger from inside the poker bubble than it really is. Most people have never heard of it and never will. Settle it privately if you can, and move on.
That's the whole statement. I won't be commenting on this again or answering questions about it, so please don't read my silence as agreement or disagreement with anyone. Poker isn't really where my head is these days. Life is full of more interesting things.
