Around 2002 or so a bunch of pros (Linda Johnson, Lederer, Doyle Brunson, and apparently Williamson) all got together to lose some weight. I know there were a few gastric bypasses amongst the bunch.

I believe they all had gastric bypass surgery. Thomas "Thunder" Keller also went ahead and had the procedure done earlier this year.

And knowing those guys there was probably a side bet on the weight loss (not a bad way to do it actually)

I, for one, had no idea Williamson was ever that big. He was one of my favorite players from the 2004 WSOP and I was lucky enough to meet him in line at the cashier when I was buying in for the event 22 this year. Very nice guy.

What is with this world? Even on a poker forum you see people obsessed with weight. Some people are fat some are thin, so what? It is pure bs if you ask me.
