Did anyone here get a piece of him?

[Kurn, son of Mogh]

Why would he sell shares? He won the seat at PokerStars.

[Ulysses]

Kurn,

He did a backing deal where he sold shares in himself to a number of RGPers and 2+2ers to give himself a bigger starting bankroll. I personally know of at least 3 people who have pieces of Greg's overall results (including this WSOP main event) based on that deal.

[Clarkmeister]

A quick search of the News, Views and Gossip archives should turn up a thread or two with all the details.

[curmudgeon]

no news yet on chip counts

[Fitz]

I remember him doing that, but it seemed like long time ago. I didn't realize he had a current deal. How's he doing so far today?

Good Luck,

Fitz
