It sound like Stu Ungar story. I hope he is stil alive.

Why would he be backed?He'd no doubt spend $10k on a hooker to do his laundry, to someone playing the micro limits it would be like being able to get into the WSOP ME for $10.

for some reason, i thought dn staked him.

He was broke.... 1 million is not that much today. 40% goes to the government, so he has 600,000 left. He was staked at the Main Event so that leaves him with $300,000. He has to pay off markers, his bad sports betting, and donking online = "dillpickle" begging "The Gift of Gab" for $10,000 to buy into the 50-100 NL game at UB.

it's wrong to gossip that why i'm posting again.read the cardplayer.com article on him. it's from the issue where he is on the cover. he admits it's markers and backers. ps. plenty of pros sell pieces of them selves. should be no big surprise.hopefully this is the end of this thread :-)

I think Todd Brunson staked him. He said something like I feel like I just lost X million on the Cardplayer audio.
