Also everyone was right not to repay their debts, because that would have been giving money to thieves.Originally posted by Howard Finkel View Post

Negreanu on twitter:
Follow @LuckBoxJuanda for John Juanda's response to Howard Lederer's attempt to throw him and everyone else under the bus. Good stuff.
Interesting stuff: a former employee's take on the recent Lederer Files. Take a look: http://www.reddit.com/r/poker/commen...h_30_plausible …
Lederer Files: the list of people who owed FTP money is MUCH longer than what he listed. NO ONE would pay back a Ray Bitar led FTP ever!
People didn't trust Ray, but YOU and Chris told everyone he is a brilliant man and is doing fine. Bad read bro. Others had it right- not you
Q for Howard: Were you/Chris not Ray's biggest supporters and put him in the position of CEO? If so, you don't take responsibility for that?
As expected Howard is using this interview to throw Ray, the shareholders, and Ivey under the bus while claiming he was the good guy. HA!
Lederer Files: Howard finds it "outrageous"that Ivey didn't want to endorse a company involved in criminal activity? Now THAT is outrageous
Lederer Files: committing a crime (allowing ROW deposits claiming its safe) in order to MAYBE increase chance of cleaning up mess=NOT OK.
Lederer Files Ep 4: I know personally for an absolute fact that he is lying in this segment.This guy takes no blame for anything it's absurd
Lederer Files: this part is gross to me- they KNEW there were no funds but allowed players all over the world to keep depositing #noexcuse
Lederer files: seems like there was NEVER even the thought of how to handle a crisis like the DOJ. They got shut down and had NO plan at all
Daniel Negreanu @RealKidPoker
Another Q: when the co. becomes massive, why not hire an experienced CEO with an education that IS qualified? Cause Ray was YOUR scapegoat?
Important Q I wish PN asked: many in the company didn't trust Ray- did YOU and Chris trust him? Which side were you on? Ray or shareholders?
Odd that Howard is now willing to throw Ray under the bus when it was HE and Chris who protected Ray from being fired the whole time.
Lederer Files: to those thinking he comes off arrogant and condescending in the interview, that isn't new, that's how he's always talked.
Daniel Negreanu @RealKidPoker
"I'm not arguing, I'm just explaining why I'm right" try using that! It will infuriate the person you are talking to HAHA!

The book on Ray Bitar in the industry was that he was an incompetent boob, but was bulletproof bc he had Chris & Howard's total backing.

One hour into the Lederer interview, so far zero apologies and zero admittance of any wrong doing on his part. Exactly what I expected.
Expand
Lederer on his contract "I don't know what it looked like, or if I even had one." ummmm ok then.

Howard Lederer on Ray Bitar: "He wasn't qualified in the traditional sense" @TonyGuoga chimes in "but he had heart and commitment!!!"Comment

I for one believe most of the information that Lederer gave in the interview and have gained a lot more respect for him and Ferguson. Fair dues for the apology at the end too.
On the other hand, Negreanu is a fucking idiot. Lost all respect for the little I had for him.
Hopefully everything ends up being ok.Comment

Watch some of the old episodes of HSP where he had an almost photographic memory describing people and hands played decades earlier and now he has suddenly come down with alzheimers. Elements of truth certainly but all spin to make him look good with an interviewer that was very much on his side. Seems in the early days at least he was Mr Full Tilt, knew exactly what was going on and in full control then all of a sudden he was happy for Chrises friend to take over despite not knowing him well.Originally posted by A_CitizenErased View PostComment

I'm sorry but WHAT? Two men responsible for stealing $300m of players funds and you've gained respect for them from an interview where HL claims to not really know what was going on and yet you lose all respect for DN. Has to be one of the most outrageous statements i've read on the matter.Originally posted by A_CitizenErased View Post
Fair dues on the apology? That's hilariousComment

These interviews are just making me not like more and more of the people involved in it. Lindgren will never regain his reputation, even before FTP went, it was widespread knowledge that he owed a lot of people a lot of money and it seems like Ivey fairly acted the dick aswell. Would like to hear from Seidel though. Find it hard to imagine him being dishonest for some reason. Anyone consider the possibility that Lederer intentionally made himself look as shook as possible?? He seems like he could actually be THAT sneaky...Comment

lederer ferguson bitar and few others took payments or wages for work done on full tilt making up 300 millon dollars then they were others who owe ftp millons from loans to play on ftp .Originally posted by A_CitizenErased View Post
most of those pros were put into tournements all over the world with everything paid for them the bubble had to burst sometime .
now its very nice of lederer to repay a loan of 700k out of the millons he got really nice guy i offer the same my self if i had his money from what he got from ftp .
now seriously were do you think he got the money for the 12 millon dollar house he got in vegas and the other properties he has all over the usa he did not make it playing poker i can tell you all he doing is trying to hold on to as much as he can .
dont believed all that on those videos my friend as you should know better what good editing can do
