The last thing me or John need is some sort of forum confirtation. If John had half the competitive mentality that I have, he could easily be the best player in the world.
I have defended myself in the past about my behavior that was translated into being poor sportsmanship, but as i have stated before, tv shows you any way they want. Whenever someone is amongst 8 boring personalities, they are going to make a villan out of a person showing emotion and flare. Um, to those who think it was unsportsmanlike for being emotional in a life changing situation.... well... im not sorry......
As for Johns bitter "luck vs skill" comment, well, yea, poker does have lots of luck, but its more timing than anything.
And yes, John you can come to Atlanta and give stevie the 8 and play for what you want. Stevie doesnt play pool anymore, if he played as much as you did, you would need the 8.
John you try to come off as a saint to these people. Dude, you dont know me. All you know is what you saw on tv, and you barely even understood what happened.
Sorry this has to be so public and I will never speak about this matter again. Ive heard you are a good guy, but thru my eyes all I see is a bitter pool player that needs to wake up and smell the coffee. What good is it going to do you to run me out of the pool world? I damn sure cant beat no one and I love gambling.
Lets let bygons be bygons adn GAMBLE for gods sake
