Give Me Some Gossip
 

I always here people say things like "Well, in the long run players like that will go broke", refering to players who many believe are good

Anyone have some recent examples?

There was this guy at my golf course, who offered,

" yeah, me and a buddy tried that internet poker one night. We each put in a $100. And we ran it up to $1,200. But by the time we quit, we both were hooked for $500."

rumors were for a while that Gus Hansen was about 4 Mil. in the red after running up too much credit in the Big Game with Doyle - and before the WSOP he was trying to rebuild the bankroll playing professional backgammon again in Europe -

I would believe it, have you ever seen him play on Stars? Fish.

I think in a recent interview, Doyle said rumours of Gus being broke are not true. I think he even said he made it all back.

There are many reasons he would say this whether it were true or not.

Yeah, but the most proof anyone could come up with was that Gus hadn't shaved so he must be hurting.

I heard that El Diablo is thinking about moving to NYC because the panhandlers have a union there.

it's kind of hard to dish with you guys when the only players you know are online or on tv, but here's a couple:

what well known player was just released from a mexican jail after serving about 4 months on drug charges? hint: he's about 60 years old, and if zee is reading, his initials are th. even if I told you his name, most of you still wouldn't know who he is.

a couple of weeks ago on live at the bike, there was a game with yosh, tuan, timmy, jerry, bobby, frank, and a couple of others I don't remember or am leaving out on purpose. which one of them hit the larry game so hard a couple of years ago that he went out and bought a million dollar house for cash?

Nice!

As for your quiz, I have two guesses, but don't know which one it is.
