A Question for Greg Raymer
Not sure if anyone else has been contacted by them about the "Faces of Poker" documentary in the works, but would like to ask if anyone else has been approached by them as well. I've been in talks with a producer and she's been very understanding and chill as well. She's told me she's had interviews with Cindy Violette, Puggy Pearson and Mr. Raymer himself. If you yourself Greg or anyone else has talked with them, let me know, reply or PM. Take care.

Yes, they came to my house in CT and interviewed me, as well as filming me playing online and live at Foxwoods. All went well, and they are supposed to set up a further interview here in LV during the WSOP.
Later, Greg Raymer (FossilMan) |

Re: A Question for Greg Raymer
i don't know much about greg or mean any disparagement - he seems like a nice guy and a good player. it is my understanding that he was backed though, so it seems unlikely to me that he was playing in (let alone winning) 300/600 games before his wsop success.

Re: A Question for Greg Raymer
he has stated previously this is how he became the poker player he is now. I'm pretty sure he states this on the ESPN final table commentary although i may be wrong I am pretty sure it was from this show.

Re: A Question for Greg Raymer
He wasn't fully backed, and the backing he did have was from many people here at 2+2, and friends I believe. No one said he played 300/600 before his WSOP success, but that he started small and worked his way up. He has posted here many times, and said in interviews that he started with a $1000 Bankroll that he helped replenish and grow via selling fossil card covers to other players along with eventually becoming a winning player.
His posts here in the past and present show that he is a student of the game and an excellent player, and for the results oriented, you can compare his pre and post WSOP ME win tourney stats with actual "forgettables."

Re: A Question for Greg Raymer
In the current 2+2 magazine he mentions working his way from 3-6 hold'em to 150-300 mixed games.
