dogishead is ridiculously good at poker, you dont need to do shady stuff and fuck people over when you got this kind of gift, I guess some people are just scumbags by essence

Just to make sure who DogIsHead is:
Is it the same guy who used the nicknames Moloch, Ipokeder and PokerInTheFace quite a long time ago here at LP and at PS. Then built up a pretty bad reputation here at LP and was forced to stop posting here?
didnt he ask to be banned himself cuz he was trolling too much?
I dont remember that, but I remember there was a thread explaining bans of certain people and his was explained as "trouble maker".
I dont remember it all well, but I think there was some sort of scam or at least shady behavior where he figured somehow on the sidelines. (Unless I am mixing him up with someone else.)
there is a light at the end of the tunnel... (but sometimes the tunnel is long and deep as hell)

He asked himself to get banned from lp cause he felt like he was wasting his time here or something. After that he went from like 5/10 to 200/400 in a year or so
what wackass site is this nigga?

he changed his name from ipokeder to dogishead when he turned 18. other than the current retardation and the ashman propbet which got over sensationalized, what shady stuff has haseeb done?

Pretty interested as well, anyone who was around lp.net that long ago could actually elaborate what you guys mean by shady stuff?

It's worth noting the exceptional similarity in writing style between Girah's apology and moloch's usual dramatic descriptive style. For example: "There is a quote on the wall in my school which I always see as I pass the nurse's office. It says that the real mistake is not tripping up, but staying down. I thought of that and that's why I'm writing this." I am loathe to feel be like one of the nvg conspiracy fools, but it's extremely weird. At this point I'll place money on evens that moloch wrote ("helped write" ) the apology post.
edit: actually it's an absurd coincidence of style beyond belief - I'll put real money where my mouth is and would lay 3-1 that he wrote that post (yes, my 300 to your 100).
edit 2: am I being silly or has dih already said he helped write the apology post? Because the more I look at it the more it is completely clear as bloody day that he wrote every word.
Researchers used brain scans to show that when straight men looked at pictures of women in bikinis, areas of the brain that normally light up in anticipation of using tools, like spanners and screwdrivers, were activated.

i think one of the weirdest things that people aren't bringing up too much, is in the skype log girah refers to his "rich friend from school" , two things
one he says his rich friends day is a banker, then like 5 minutes later he literally says his dad died two years ago. obv he coulda used present tense before by mistake or whatever.
but then the skype group guy asks where the kid from his school is from and girah says "i dont know" (lol, he refers to said peron as his best friend earlier)
and then even weirder he says "his parents are from strange countries, like spain or france or something"
and he's supposed to be from portugal? i just dont see someone from portugal calling spain and france "weird/strange countries" under any circumstance. he also uses "mum" instead of "mom" which i kinda thought was bizarre as well but w/e.

Yes, and I think Girah's post is way too good for a 17-year-old guy from Portugal that hasn't lived or worked in any english speaking country (maybe he is a language prodigy as well)

He just admitted multi-accounting..
Also he has always been a douchebag and a plain liar (if you read the ashman propbet entirely you will see all his lies and hypocrisy) and now the super shady genius he endorsed so strongly turns out to be a scammer.
Also he says they owed him money so they were paying the guys cheated, however he was playing under their stake... makes no sense.

Bit of an aside but had a look at that OPs posting history. He goes from using text speak and bad spelling in Jan 2011 to suddenly becoming very articulate in June 2011. I guess dogishead took over posting duty for a while!
Semirelated that all the skypelogs where he types are fucking hilarious. It's usually the other way around (I assume) for non natives. Decent writing/reading and awkward speech.

oh wow that is absolute bullshit, there is no way in hell somebody who has never lived for years in a native English speaking country could ever speak that fluently with near perfect pronunciation.

RE: Girahs english
I read that he attends an international school in Portugal, so all his lessons etc are in english.
I know a guy who was educated at an international school in Dubai and he has a very similar "Americanized" accent

he really is a language prodigy if he didnt spend at least a handful of years in an english speaking country (probably in north america)
his overuse of the word "like" is something me and a lot of can/am's definitely do more than almost any other european ive ever come across. also his use of interjections (i think thats what they are?) such as saying things like "its sort of kinda blah blah" and stuff just really seems like fluid native speaking. and i'd say i've definitely come across wayyy more 2nd/3rd/4th language english speakers than the average person given my status as an american native english speaker.
im obv not saying its impossible, just that its crazy impressive. i actually have a decent portuguese friend from porto who speaks outstanding english but still has a very noticeable accent even thoguh his syntax/grammar is near perfect. he also like i said before is very less likely to use things like "sort of" and "like" when speaking as natives do.

Location was Portugal as well. I think that was within the past half year and that guy disappeared. Maybe just a weird coincidence but just wanted to throw it in as there could be a connection.
-So someone from Portugal portrayed himself as Christiano Ronaldo and scammed some highstakes guys.
-Girah is from Portugal and scammed some highstakes guys.
-Jungleman was going to Portugal to live with the scammer Girah.
-Jungleman is rumored to have played against Christiano Ronaldo
I think it pretty coincidental since Portugal isn't exactly a mecca for highstakes poker and in the past year there have been 2 highstakes scams originating from the country

Read about this in the high stakes nll forum instead to filter out the posts ... he was 95% backed when he got hacked for 200k ... wanted to drag sauce and other high stakes players so him and dc wouldn't get singled out. Him being so heavily involved with jose and some other inconsistencies.
