I can see why some people wouldn't like the Mouth, but what's the deal with everyone hating Dutch Boyd? Just curious.

When his poker room "Pokerspot" went under, Dutch lied his ass off for months and never gave people their money back.

when you're broke yourself, you can't give money to others. Poor business practices = Failed business = Angry customers. I would accuse him of not protecting customer's money and actually using it for the site's capital.

his customers = other players that face him in the WSOP and elsewhere. i am so glad his lying, thieving, ass got busted out before ESPN would have to cover Russ (his real name that he doesn't go by any more since he screwed over his customers).

None of the above.

Correct answer is Doyle's 10th bracelet.

How about Hellmuth NOT getting his tenth bracelet first? Man he would have NEVER shut up.

A correctly run poker site would keep all deposits in an account where the business was only allowed to draw out the rake. PokerSpot used players deposits on expenses. When the deposits slowed down and the cashouts increased, it went bankrupt. He and his company spent money that wasn't their's. Sounds like stealing to me.

But when you have another company that wants to buy your assets, and this sale will give you enough money to pay back the players you originally stole from, you take the f***ing deal and don't complain that there isn't enough in it for you

It's called 'commingling' and if his business was located in the US he would be in jail.

His is not a case of bad planning and failed business models, his is a case of straight out fraud.
