i also believe as well that there may be a tad of degeneracy in there.

How responsible can a person be who keeps all of his money in a non-interest bearing safe deposit box?

I suppose by misinformed you mean those people who have a life outside sweating the minutia of day 2 day poker current events. Sometimes postin on 2+2 can be so dard depressing.

For some reason I found this quote very comical..... I do recall a time when I joined that Zaxx had 3.4 posts in every thread.

Plus how naive are you if you believe those gaming rules cannot be circumvented in about a million different ways.

Since we are still talking about it I guess Wynn is a genious afterall...

Looks like somebody has been watching to much Tilt. There is no way Steve Wynn would risk getting in to trouble with the gaming commision over poker, the least profitable game in his brand new casino. Yeah put millions and millions he has invested and the billions he stands to make over poker you believe that you are the naive one.

As much as I think he's completely lame.... I believe him that he's playing with his own money.

He does that for tax reasons. He saves more on not reporting (probably) than he would make on interest.

I was wondering about this last one. It seemed it started awhile ago. Is it still going on? I haven't seen anywhere on his blog where he states an outcome to it or it's current status.

Sundevils21, what's the dealio?

I'm sure it's not for tax reasons. Have you ever tried to pull a large amount of money out of your bank? The hassle is enormous. He probably keeps the cash for his side games so he has easy access without endless forms to fill out when he wants to get it. I would guess he probably has lines of credit set up with most of the major casinos as well so he doesn't have to travel with much cash. (See Greg Raymer robbery stories for the risks in that endeavour).

They havent played for a few weeks because of the WSOP. They made an agreement that if either of them made it past 6pm in a days event they wouldnt play that night. I also think both of their minds are on the WSOP more than finihshing their 4th match. Look for it to continue after the main event.

As for the money...I can promise you this: Daniel is playing with his own money. Wynn Las Vegas has no part of Daniel's bankroll, what he wins or loses, nor are they paying him anything additional to play these matches.
These matches were Daniel's idea, Wynn is simply the place he is playing them.
Anyone that knows anything about the operations of a poker room and it's potential will understand why even the thought of risking only $500k would make no sense at all.
