Re: The ongoing saga of Ellix Powers, homeless WSOP star
There are thousands of Ellix Powers' running around all over the place. Each of them has a different angle, but they all have the same goal.
No offense, but your friend is a mark. Ellix definitely isn't the worst guy in the world and I'm sure he's entertaining, but all he wants from your friend is money.
Being around a hustler like Ellix is probably a little exciting for your friend, given Ellix's notoriety. You can never give a guy like that an inch as far as cash, rides, a place to stay, etc. goes, however. He will burn you everytime.
Interesting stories, though. He's definitely a colorful character.
