That depends on if I actually saw him take the money of if I just thought he might. I would hate to accuse someone of something I couldn't prove. Just the fact that the guy could be a pick pocket isn't enough proof to actual make an accusation. He could just be an innocent bystander. My course of action would be to maybe warn the table of the possibility of pickpockets being in the area and let everyone fend for themselves.
Good point -- The rules need to be enforced and the game kept fair. In a 'friendly' poker game with 10 participants, it's easy to see who needs to keep watch. Who is the enforcer in this thread? Is he more interested in my well-being or in his own ego? That's not so clear-cut, and I think there is some of the latter going on. Note that I am not defending Doug or his offer. I am only commenting on a psychological phenomenon that I find interesting. I favor full disclosure. Can somebody post the letter? [rwk]
Does the victim owe me $50? Kidding. In the end, it may bite me in the ass, but I would warn the competition. Good Karma.
"Suddenly you spot a pick-pocket guy who is stealing cash from one of the guys at the table. " What part of this statement makes you doubt yourself. regards f9
I was sworn to keep it private. Sorry. I will not violate that trust. But obviously there are many others with the first in a series of letters
Sense of fairness is what attracts us to the game. If the goal is to get the money by any means available to you you should buy a gun, not the books on how to trade.
When it does happen it will be too late! But you are right, who am I to judge ... I felt I have said enough to warn. The rest is up to you guys.
Hi Everybody, First, I wanted to thank everybody who signed up so far. We have 94 people who signed up and completed the introductory "get to know you" questionnaire. As I said in the video, we decided to cut off the process after 100 people signed up. As of right now, we have 6 spots open. I will schedule a conference call and send out an email to everybody who signed up as soon as I decide on the date and time. I am also working on a FAQ based on all the questions that have been asked so far. I am leaving for NY on March 12 and will return on March 16, so I am committed to having the conference call before I leave. If anybody is from NY and wants to get together, PM and maybe we can meet on the morning of the 16th. Also, if you go to the site and see that all the spots are filled up, you can put your name on the wait list for when more spots open up. I'm going to be closing the sign-up process sometime today, but I'll be replacing it with a wait list. I am certain that more spots will open up because there are a small handful of people who signed up who give the impression that they signed up for no other reason than to cause mischief.... these people will weed themselves out quickly!
