Mark’s Soap Box

Ladies bitch because they didn’t get to play ladies only poker.

“When you’re a woman and you play poker, 99 percent of the time you’re at a table with nine men,” Rowe, who won $11,889, said yesterday during a phone interview, adding that playing against a field of women is “something I look forward to.

“Why did he have to ruin it for us? Why would he do this?”

It’s called “fairness” ladies. You are not allowed to discriminate. What’s the matter, can’t live by the rules laws? Aww boo-hoo, isn’t that too bad that the law is now being applied equally.

BTW, it’s the feminazis who demanded that men not be allowed to have men-only anything. It’s only fair that you can’t have women-only anything.

From the casino’s standpoint, there was no option other than to seat Korotki.

I suppose we are to feel said since you are a woman? Is that supposed to tug at our hearts, you having a uterus? Remember ladies, the liberals say we are all the same, regardless of equipment.

Korotki’s entering the tournament aside, Rowe also was steamed that he refused to “chop” the pot with her as they began one-on-one play.

Oh now we get it. She is just greedy. [Chopping the pot, is common in tourneys that have unfavorable structures. It makes the outcome less likely. It also gives the weaker player more money.] It seems clear that he knew he could beat her, and she seems to know it as well. It’s always about money, isn’t it?

Each acknowledged that earlier in the contest Korotki, after hearing from Rowe about her illness, purposely played a weak hand against her in hopes of helping her build her chip stack (she doubled her amount by winning the hand).

So he soft played her earlier, and now she is bitching that he wouldn’t do it again. Unreal. BTW “soft playing” someone is against the rules. Based upon this little nugget, it’s clear she would not have made the final table, if he had played properly.
