HubDub04 0 Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 Ok, so i'm pretty well versed in the poker world and I know most all of the players and their backgrounds but I can't figure out who this kid is. Hes currently on HSP season 3 and I don't know what hes done in the circuit and what not. Where does he get his bankroll from, how did he get a seat in HSP if he hasn't done much, is he a big unknown online player?Any insight would be cool. Link to post Share on other sites

Omaha Hi/Lo 0 Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 He is a very young millionarie, he's also Russian. If I recall correctly it was mostly from investments or work on the NYSE... DN mentioned it in his blog the day after they shot HSP S3... but I'm too lazy to look it up. He is NOT a pro, though. Link to post Share on other sites
