Anybody know what happened to davidross?
 

I loved reading his I'm going pro series and haven't seen him around. I also noticed you can't PM his username.

Mods, if this is the wrong forum, feel free to move/lock.

Re: Anybody know what happened to davidross?
 

I wonder to. I hope he didn't tap out. Considering he was a nice guy and had a family to support. I do know he was running real bad at the beginning of the year and was freaked out by it. If he were single he would be made in the shade. But having a family and having bad months can kill your enthusiasm to play for a job......

i can attest that he's been playing some 15/30 on party.

davidross still plays on Party 15/30. I have played on the same table as him a few times in the last few weeks. I don't beleive he has posted here for quite some time, though.

Becuase people tell him he's wrong and he hates learning.

That's pretty harsh. It's tough for any of us to go through a very bad downswing which obviously involves a lot of horrible luck and be able to critically and unemotionally look at our game and accept the sometimes vicious criticism of this site - especially as a high profile posater like DR.

He refused to learn from his mistakes long before he posted about his big downswing. Whether it involved horrible luck or horrible play, who cares? What does that have to do with an unwillingness to listen to criticism from very smart people?

Fwiw I don't think I would call davidross a "high profile poster". He has a sort of cult following of a bunch of people that read his journals a couple years ago, but most of the people that have seen his strategy posts or played with him wouldn't refer to him like that.

Re: Anybody know what happened to davidross?
 

He posted 2 or 3 mths ago that he went on a vacation and didn't play a single-hand for 10 days which was a first since he turned pro.


He qualified for the PokerStars Bahamas PCA event. Don't know when...just happened past his name under the 'cash-qualifiers' so I suppose congrats are in order for that. He seems to have a fairly strong tourney game as best I can tell (have been at his table a few times).
