Stuball...Amazing...

[Ryan_21]

...Yo, I just saw the most amazing thing in my life tonight. I was playing a tournament with some buddies of mine (just a 4 person tourny). We are all pretty good and have been playing since like '97. Anyway we all started w/ the same amount of chips. One dude went out really quick and gave Clay an early 2 to 1 to 1 lead. Next in about an hour this dude named T-Rex, we also like to call him Stuball, (in rememberance of Stu Ungar, b/c of his uncanny poker ability) goes all in and loses to Clay. So Clay has a 3-1 chip lead on me and Stuball has like 3 chips left. Anyhow, we play for about 20-30 more minutes and Stuball doubles up a couple of times and then about 10 minutes later me and Stuball go all in and he had me covered and he won. So, Stuball and Clay are playing head up and Clay has about a 3-1 chip lead on Stuball, in the next hour Stuball literally beats Clay down and wins the whole thing. Dude, came back from like 3 chips to win the whole thing. Man, Im still freaked out...I dont wanna play with Stuball anymore.

[CrackerZack]

I get this weird feeling that Stu Ungar is deified by your clique. Are there rituals and sacrifices involved here?

One good thing about him, everyone I know named Stu is a weasally, business, everyone's best friend type. Ungar sure wasn't. maybe there is hope for this name.

[Big Al]

consider yourself lucky....

[Ryan_21]

What the heck are you talking about? You dont know me either bia.

Ryan_21

[Ryan_21]

No rituals and/or sacrifices...just game recognize game thats all.

"we also like to call him Stuball, (in rememberance of Stu Ungar, b/c of his uncanny poker ability)"

Really, I'd have thought it was in remembrance of what he OD'ed on.

Listen, it was bad enough that you burned up so much cyberspace deifying a guy you never met, but really, do we have to hear about "amazing" plays by your imaginary "Stuball" friend as well ?

"Man, Im still freaked out...I dont [hear/read] about Stuball anymore."

Ted

[Ryan_21]

You dumb fuc kin SOB. You guys dont have anything better to do than make smartass replies to peoples post. Sorry, I thought it was a great accomplishment. If you dont wanna hear/read about what people got to say then stick a cock in your ear/eyes, and stick one in your mouth and shut the fu ck up.

Hurry up Mat and delete this so none of these grown adults are offended.

Ryan_21

[Ted Geisel]

Looked up "tilt" in the dictionary and saw your picture.

If you cannot take the heat, stop posting such self-referential nonsense. No one knows your friends, imaginary or otherwise.

The main point of your post was that among four friends playing on your dorm room floor or wherever, one came back from 3 chips and a chair to beat out two others. You call this the most amazing thing you have ever seen, about which you are still freaking out.

Sorry, Ryan, not only is that not "amazing", it is not even slightly interesting, it is not news, it is not gossip, and likely isn't even a "view".

Why don't you create the "Amazing Ryan21 Website" and post these gems where they are more appreciated. Here, they look comical, a perception not aided by your hysterical reactions when someone makes fun of them.

[Big Al]

Amen brother...

[Zele]

When you play a little more poker you may begin to realize that events like this are not really that uncommon, especially in the tournament setting you described.

[Ryan_21]

Someone being outchipped 100-1 and coming back to win is "not uncommon" You cant be serious?

Ryan_21

[Ryan_21]

"Looked up "tilt" in the dictionary and saw your picture."

Haha...are you 6?

"it is not news, it is not gossip, and likely isn't even a "view". "

"No one knows your friends, imaginary or otherwise."

The fact that no one knows my friends certainly makes it News, certainly makes it Gossip, and it IS MY view, (like I said before, you dumb fu ckin SOB).

"Sorry, Ryan, not only is that not "amazing","

Someone being outchipped 100-1 and coming back to win is "not amazing"? Im sure since you are so cool you see this everyday.

"your hysterical reactions when someone makes fun of them."

Find someone else to pick on cuz I'll keep cussin your bitchass out if you wanna be a smartass. On the other hand, maybe you "need" to keep picking on people on the computer, cuz you certainly couldnt beat my ass.

Ryan_21

[Ted Geisel]

Ryan, you were playing at home with a couple of your friends. there were three people in the four-person tourney at that point, none of whom has any known skills. That one of your friends came from 3 chips and a chair against you and another friend is simply NOT noteworthy, except among you and your three friends, cutesy nicknames and all.

Any story needs some context, otherwise it has limited interest. Yours has no meaningful context, other than to you and three friends. That four unknowns played a private tournament is NOT news, that four unknowns do anything is not gossip, and, your "view" that it is is myopic at best, and blinded by your ego at worst.

That you simply do not get this is hilarious, that you think "cussing me out" makes you seem less ridiculous is equally funny.

Cuss away if it makes you feel all grown up, but that's why people get banned however.

[Ryan_21]

"that four unknowns do anything is not gossip,"

You're an unknown too. Nobody knows or cares who you are so in your own opinion spare us all and please stop posting your news, views and gossip, b/c you nobody cares b/c you are an unknown.

Ryan_21

[Ted Geisel]

Wow .... the most amazing thing ever happened the other day. Dude, I am still freaking out about it. This guy Ryan_21, who I never met, made a post on 2+2 about how he played in this tourney`at his house. The amazing part of it is that I read his post on this amazing thing called the internet.

Now that is news, as a famous guy put it, "I heard they put the internet on computers now". Now this famous guy, Homer, has been on TV forever with a hit show.

Sometimes, I watch TV with my friend, who I like to call Stewball. Now, Stewball was a racehorse ... et cetera.

[Makaveli]

I'm not quite sure whats more amazing, these posts or the fact that this argument continues...

[Makaveli]

1 more thing that i find very interesting is that there is so many posts for this not being interesting, not being post worthy, and posted by a so called nobody....

[Mike Gallo]

Ryan,

Did you idolize the bad guys growing up?

I bet you idolize Dennis Rodman and Mike Tyson.

[MaxPower]

Your story doesn't add up for me. You say Clay was the chip leader. If Stuball went all-in against him, he shouldn't have any chips left. So Stuball must have been the chip leader when he went all-in against Clay.

Maybe I'm missing something here.

[Ryan_21]

Yeah, when Stuball went all in he had Clay covered by 3 chips, thats how he had them left over.

Ryan_21

[Ryan_21]

"Did you idolize the bad guys growing up?"

Yup.

"I bet you idolize Dennis Rodman and Mike Tyson."

Not necessarily idolize them but I like them too. But I also like the "good guys" like MJ, Deion, Roy Jones, etc.

Ryan_21

[Ryan_21]

There used to be a poster on here/ dont know if he still post b/c I cant remember the name. But he use to have the signature:

"Never argue w/ an idiot, they will bring you down to their level and beat you w/ experience"

I can see that this is what is happening here, so if you want to be ignorant Ted, go be ignorant in someone elses thread b/c I wont reply to your nonsense in this thread anymore, why should I you're just a nobody.

Ryan_21

[Schmed]

everyone makes 6 figures and can whip Tyson......

I could neither confirm nor deny that you are the baddest man on the planet. As a matter of fact the only thing I can confirm about you is that you really aren't very smart

[CrackerZack]

6 figures? You must hang out in the online ghetto. 6 figures in 60 days around here...ask anyone!

amusing post.

If nothing else, at least Ryan_21 has understood that his swearing doesn't add to his credibility, three posts in a row without a "F*** this" or a "biat*h that" ... there is hope for the guy, perhaps.

[Mat Sklansky]

Ryan has been banned. I warned him previously and he has come back with excessive profanity. The thing is, I'm not sure the guy I have banned is the original ryan_21. His previous posts seemed fine. Either way, for now, he's gone.

[Big Al]

Good riddence. The guy is one of those colossal bores that think people are really interested in stupid stories that have no meaning or point. The profanity just showed his immaturity and I am glad you banned the punk.

[CrackerZack]

something that said, "Can we vote Ryan_21 off the island?" but decided not to feed the fire. Guess it didn't matter.

[southerndog]

Yo, nice move, yo!

[James282]

The "I can beat you up" argument is awesome.

I once saw a really hilarious picture someone made online...and while insensitive, it rung true.

"Arguing on the internet is like competing in the Special Olympics. Even if you win, you are still retarded."

I would say this directly applies to people who say they can beat up other people simply because of things that they have posted /images/graemlins/smile.gif

Thanks for re-instating my forum privelages Matt. I promised I wont curse anymore and I keep my word.

[Ryan_21]

Naw I dont like Kobe, and not b/c of his whole Rape accusation, I just think he is an MJ wannabe. Dont get me wrong, he's a great ball player, I just dont like him or the Shaq or the Lakers. I like Allen Iverson though, and maybe its b/c he's a thug but the guy is a baller too.

"The "I can beat you up" argument is awesome."

I never said I could beat anyone up. I said he couldnt beat me up. Theres a difference. Besides I know its corny, I dont know the guy, he could be bad as heck, but all I know is I carry a louiville slugger in my car.

If Im so boring, why do I create the largest and most read threads? 1083 views and growing. I may not of created the Stu Ungar threads, but it was because of me that they grew to mamouth proportions. So how do you explain the boring thing?

Ryan_21

boring is not the word I would use to describe your posts

Thanks for backing me up man.

He's pretty good as wannabes go. But I agree, I don't like him, Shaq or the Lakers. Even less so after a 2OT loss to them tonight (Spurs). /images/graemlins/mad.gif

[Ryan_21]

This thread has almost 1250 views. I have the top 2 most viewed threads on this board for 5 pages, not counting the Stu Ungar backgammon thread, and really if it wasnt for me that thread wouldnt have reached mamouth proportions. So, really I got the top 3 most viewed threads on the last 5 pages. So how you gonna say Im boring?

Ryan_21

[Ryan_21]

Yo, I saw that shiznick, Casino was crazy, Nicky and Domnick didnt deserve that, I dont like that part. It's like the end in Juice when Pac dies, I dont even like to watch those parts. They aint cool.

Revolting??!?!?! lol, i love our elders, dont u? those four letter words are an excuse for not listening to people they dont want to hear.

[Ted Geisel]

Ryan_, you did not know about Tony Spilotro, Lefty Rosenthal, Allen Glick, the Stardust Hotel et cetera ?

Hell, they even threw in Oscar Goodman, playing himself in the movie and blew up Robert DeNiro on location in the parking lot of Tony Roma's.

Get a clue, the events you think were undeserved were based on REAL LIFE, not some cyber fantasy of a thug wannabe. Sorry if real life "aint cool" sometimes.

[Ryan_21]

"Get a clue, the events you think were undeserved were based on REAL LIFE"

Which part about my post makes you think I did not know that the movie was based on true events?


"not some cyber fantasy of a thug wannabe"

I beleive I've already stated for the record that Im not a thug nor do I want to be one.

Hey, since your such an information freak, how many post in a row does that make without a curse word now?


Ryan_21

[banditbdl]

Funny, I always found Roy Jones and Deion's unbelievably pompous acts annoying and I don't think I'm alone. Case in point Deion having the audacity to say he wants to be the Falcons head coach even though he has zero coaching experience (his "consulting" doesn't count). What a joke. If you want to talk about "good guys" give me a warrior and class act like McNair, not a showboat like Deion.

[Cyrus]

"...three posts in a row without a "F*** this" or a "biat*h that"..."

What is "biat*h that", please? Thanks in advance.

[johnnyhearts]

Gentlemen of Nerd-dom and Mathsterbation,

I see a heartfelt 2+2 welcome is being issued to a new poster. To someone who maybe hasn't played a lot of tournaments the "chip and a chair" miracle seems pretty outrageous, wouldn't you say, Poker-poindexters? Get a life Goofs! Grab a beer, go to a gentlemen's club, actually play real cards somewhere that serves cocktails!

I would like to welcome Ryan and share a poignant story of the late, great Mr. Ungar. About a decade ago, when San Manuel Casino had first opened they offered a "bank your own" blackjack game. A local well-heeled business owner was banking a pretty large limit game when Mr. Ungar appeared on the scene, coked out of his mind, with a couple...."women of the evening" in tow.

Stuey sat in the game and soon had somehow annoyed (or upstaged) the rich guy. A shouting match erupted in which Stuey was bellowing stuff like, "Don't you know who the f*** I am, you small-time shine boy, etc." Ungar then proceeded to brow beat the guy into raising the stakes of the game even further at which time Stuey got hot and forced the guy to sheepishly leave! Mr. Ungar was one of the greatest phenoms of all time and anybody that knows about his lore and domination of big time poker during his prime will admit it regardless of their opinion of his lifestyle!

"Which part about my post makes you think I did not know that the movie was based on true events?"

The whole thing, in the context of every other post of your I have ever read and your consistent Stuey/Tupac/Ryan fantasy. I think that any relationship of your posts to true events is random at best.

Call it a hunch, but I was not wrong on this one. Surprised, yes ... but wrong, no.

[Ryan_21]

"I see a heartfelt 2+2 welcome is being issued to a new poster."

"I would like to welcome Ryan"

I have five hundred and eighteen posts and you have 30 and you want to welcome me?

Cool story on Stuey though.

Ryan_21

[Ryan_21]

Sorry but being cocky doesnt disqualify you from being a good person. Deion Sanders is an outspoken Christian and Roy Jones doesnt drink or smoke or do drugs or rape women or shoot up people. So I dont see your point?

Ryan_21

[Ryan_21]

"I think that any relationship of your posts to true events is random at best."

You think to much, or maybe you dont think enough?

Ryan_21

[johnnyhearts]

I made an assumption based on your shock and awe at a 100/1 chip dog coming back to win a drunken, fratboy tournament and also at your seeming lack of knowledge regarding sanctions against profanity. Sorry, playa! Enjoy the collective hatred against you.

Nobody said thuggin' was easy.

Johnny

[banditbdl]

Good post, but I think we're both off a little here. You're right being cocky doesn't necessarily disqualify you from being a "good guy" but to the level these two are it certainly is a less than admirable characteristic. I for one count a little humility as a positive thing. At the same time being an outspoken Christian like Deion, or simply obeying the law and keeping your body healthy like Roy Jones isn't enough for them to be a "good guy" either, but they do indeed help. None of us can really speak to the true character of someone we've never even met. I was just trying to point out the two guys you cited as "good guys" are still disliked by a ton more sportsfans than say Steve McNair or Kevin Garnett.

Yeah Deion is such a good outspoken christian that his mechanic had to sue him to get paid. Deion asked to have his car repaired and agreed to the estimate. When the work was done Deion paid the mechanic less than 30% of the bill and said Jesus told him that was all he should pay. Pretty typical for a millionaire christian egotist.


PS: The mechanic had to hire a lawyer and go to court to get the rest of his money.

You must be talking about some McNair other than Steve. You can't really think that arrogance is worse than drunk driving, can you?

[banditbdl]

Apparently I missed the drunk driving incident, my bad, and his. And to answer your question of course not.

[Ryan_21]

Hey, I said I thought he was a good guy, not that he always thought clearly, besides that was like 4 months ago, and nobody knows what really happened there but the two of them. Maybe the mechanic did a bad job? You never know, I got chastised for believing ESPN and was told not to believe news sources on blind faith, so if I cant believe what ESPN said about Stuey, it would be a double standard to believe what ESPN said about PrimeTime, right?

Sorry, try again.

Deion brought his car in and told the mechanic there was a $1500 cap on the repairs. When he got his car back, the mechanic had performend unauthorized repairs, so Deion refused to pay what he hadn't previously agreed on.
