cindyk 0 Posted December 26, 2005 Share Posted December 26, 2005 I just got done reading a book about Stu Ungar. It said that he was real down on his luck and had a bad drug problem, but someone staked him $25,000 for him to get in the big game at the Belligio and try to get back focused on poker and turn his life around. Even though Negreanu and a few other top players knew of Stu Ungars problems, they jumped at a chance to break him and take his roll. Not long after Ungar sat down with Negreanu he was indeed broke. This was Stueys last chance to turn his life around but Negreanu took all hope from him (along with a nice chunk of change). Now Ungar had nothing more to live for, he had given up hope. A short time later he was dead in his hotel room of a drug overdose. Link to post Share on other sites

ReCuddjnu 0 Posted December 26, 2005 Share Posted December 26, 2005 Give me a break...... By the end of his life Stuey was stealing 5$ chips from tourists in downtown vegas. Poker is a cut throat game. Stuey, as much as I respect him, sealed his own fate, problems with high-stakes bookies, drugs, women, etc. led to his downfall not DN. Link to post Share on other sites

It can be informative, it can be fun, it can be a place where people with common interests can find a sense of community. The downside is that this forum gives a public voice to people such as yourself. People that have no regard for true human emotion. People that have no regard for the true gift human interaction.Do you feel like you are a better person for posting this garbage? Did you for once even sit back and consider the personal effect inflammatory comments such as the above may have on someone?You are just a total disgrace to human beings everywhere, and I think it is very unfortunate to the thousands of good people on this forum that you happened to stumble across it.

I found the book very interesting and Stu Ungar was definatly one of the top poker players of all time. Since this is Daniels site and he was one of the last people to see him alive, I thought Stueys last days might be a good topic for this forum and maybe Daniel would chime in with his memories of Ungars last hours.
