What the fuck is wrong with this guy?

Im not sure I should be saying this even, many swedes have been scared/threatened to silence when they outed samer as a cheater, rightly so as there appearantly gathered evidence as a group and all pooled to the same dude who were going to post it and suddenly he decided not to like out of the blue after stating numerous times that "there isnt a sum in the world that will have me back down from this" "I will out the evidence when its all in order" going on a rant about even if he got 100% of all he gotten scammed out of (beyond $200k+) back he wouldnt hesitate... and still, he ended up dropping the ball. (dont get me wrong, i understand him, from what ive heard they visited him IRL.) These guys are the real deal, and absolute scum, sticking out my neck now but really, this isnt any news and most swedes already know. and that thread should be accessible through some cachestorage of some sort because i think he asked the mods to delete the whole thread so its physical existence on that forum is probably no longer there after having pm'd the mod why.

This was taken off of 2+2, any of the Swedes on here know the back story and/or what's going on?

original thread posted today: already on page 20

TLDR?

Thanks for posting. Worthy of a full thread imo, 2p2 is kicking off fun style - someone purporting to be Samer just posted a lol classic scammer "I've been hacked" defence in the thread. mmmmmm drama...

Ive read thru that thread and it seems pretty fucked up, any resident Swedes know about this asshole?

Deleted already?

Wow, I'm shocked it was deleted. A lot of great posts especially from "Ike". Btw, who is Ike?

I still have some of the thread pulled up from last night...here's a post from Ike on 2+2 about ADZ:

Sorry, but this is way off. Matt is a genuine scumbag and with the exception of an ever-shrinking cluster of old friends and a handful of new ones who don't understand who they're dealing with, no one wants anything to do with him. He has on several occasions over the years proved that he is an unethical and untrustworthy person: He colluded (by sharing action at a minimum, stars concluded that their play was not demonstrably collusive and decided not to ban him) with another player in a three-handed 100/200 game on Stars four years ago and then was outed by his confederate when he tried to not pay him: http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/19...adz124-155451/ He made a bet on the details of a hand he played against JC Alvarado, was clearly wrong, and refused to pay on the grounds that he had confused JC for Leo Fernandez. This happened years ago but gets brought back up occasionally. As far as I know, he's still refusing to submit to any sort of arbitration or other process for resolving the dispute. He maintains that he is in the right and won't listen to anyone. He brags constantly about his multiaccounting. In addition to his handful of outright unethical actions as a gambler, he's just a ****ty, unpleasant person. At their less severe, his internet antics can be sorta funny, but his two social media explosions at Lauren were way over the line of acceptable behavior. His insecure bragging about his wealth and status, the former of which is mainly inherited and the latter completely imagined, and constant talking down to people he considers beneath him are intolerably obnoxious. There's no reason to think this is any sort of feigned persona as opposed to his sincere feelings about himself and other people. The idea that "the real Matt," is a mild mannered good guy is ridiculous. He's the same ******* 24/7, he's just a little shyer in person. There's no evidence the accusations in the OP are legitimate, but it wouldn't be out of character. It's likewise perfectly believable that these accusations are fabricated by someone who's out to get him.

also this little tid-bit

Does anyone know if this is concerning the Swede from PokerListings that was murdered by the bandidos?
