And i heard right before he won the main event in 89 he used to play at arizona charlies(in vegas) a 4-8 or 3-6 game and lose. He probably was a kid who took a shot at the series, probably with no bankroll because he couldn't beat the games, and got lucky at the series. Then had fun with that unitl he gave it all away and went broke(all the while winning 9 bracelets). Yeah he must have been a great live game player to lose 1 mil. and 8 other bracelets worth of money lol. Then starting getting backed by ted forest until he finally made some money and got out of debt. Then the endorsements started pouring in.
