I can easily admit when I am wrong and have (unlike many). I just was not wrong about a subject we went back and forth on previously (obviously, from you comments; let it go man) and you were and still are upset about it. Because you could not adequately defend yourself, which is not my problem. Grow up.
I don't even remember the details of what you're talking about, but even so I can assure you that you're delusional. I defend myself quite well, thank you. In fact I never wade into a discussion to present my position without facts or experience to backup what I'm talking about. There are areas where I have decades of experience and professional knowledge, some that I only have a small working or theoretical knowledge of, and others that I'm clueless about. I only weigh in on the former, never the latter. I'm sure others who have been around awhile can tell you that as well.
You love to hide behind the opinion shield, that I do remember. If someone
tells you you're wrong, it's just a "your opinion against theirs" with you. And then you resort to insults and condescension. Sorry, but no -- sometimes you're just wrong and need to be called out on it. You act as if your opinions are sacred. Your opinion means exactly shit in the face of facts or even just consensus. I can have an "opinion" that Mars has a breathable atmosphere. It doesn't make it valid, and I'd look pretty stupid having an argument about it while hiding behind nothing but my opinion. You tend to do a lot of that.
The fact that you think you "got the best of me" is somewhat humorous to be sure. Again I don't remember the subject, but as I recall, my responses to you were to try and reorient any members here who might have been led astray by some of the comments you deliver with an air of authority (on ANY subject, and this thread is a
perfect example of that), no matter how asinine they may be.
I might let your opinions go on other subjects that I'm not passionate about, but this forum is primarily aimed at helping people play better poker, and when someone like you is giving blatantly bad advice, I and others here are going to call you out on it. Trust me when I tell you that winning you over wasn't my concern, because it's obvious you're a lost cause. You flatter yourself if you think I need your validation for anything or that I "can't let it go."
TL;DR:
When your opinions are nonsense, you're going to get called out. If you can't handle it, then you're invited to find another online community where you can use your opinions and condescending tone to bully others around. It ain't happening here.
I won't continue to participate in this particular discussion with you, but I absolutely will continue to call you out if you continue to post BS as fact on subjects that I hold dear.
