Brian Hastings Ataca David Baker e Haley Hintze Sem Nunca Desmentir os Factos
Depois de David Baker ter acusado publicamente Brian Hastings de ter usado duas contas para jogar o Spring Championship Of Online Poker da PokerStars, esperava-se um desmentido por parte de Hastings.
Hastings veio a p��blico mas n?o desmentiu as acusa??es, preferiu atacar a conceituada jornalista Haley Hintze devido a uma pe?a publicada no f��rum 2+2 e enviar uma estranha mensagem privada a David Baker.
.@Haley_Hintze do you even believe half the stuff you wrote? What a piece of garbage. Several outright factual inaccuracies, for starters.

J�� a mensagem enviada a Baker foi um pouco mais extensa:
I��m aware of the allegations, but at this time I have nothing to add to the conversation publicly. I stopped caring what strangers on the internet said or thought about me many years ago; otherwise I probably would��ve jumped off the deep end by now. What I do care about is something like this being a major story in the poker world at a time in which the WSOP is in full force and we should be trying to promote and grow the game of poker, rather than drag it through the mud. [...] I think especially those of us who are professional poker players should be taking steps to try to promote and grow the game, rather than feeling sorry for themselves because Cardrunners was founded, Black Friday happened, everybody is too good now, etc. With enough hard work, I truly believe that just about anyone (at least anyone smart enough to be browsing 2+2) can make a living playing poker in 2015.
Ou seja, Hastings acha que estas acusa??es s?o m��s para a imagem do jogo mas m?o as desmente factualmente. Haley Hintze fez um coment��rio bastante pertinente sobre a postura de Hastings, por vezes �� muito similar �� que Russ Hamilton tinha. Recordo que Hamilton esteve envolvido no escandalo da Ultimate Bet e chegou a dizer que usava o dinheiro roubado aos jogadores para ajudar a fam��lia e institui??es de caridade...
