Default Give Me Some Gossip

I always here people say things like "Well, in the long run players like that will go broke", refering to players who many believe are good

Anyone have some recent examples?

There was this guy at my golf course, who offered,

" yeah, me and a buddy tried that internet poker one night. We each put in a $100. And we ran it up to $1,200. But by the time we quit, we both were hooked for $500."

rumors were for a while that Gus Hansen was about 4 Mil. in the red after running up too much credit in the Big Game with Doyle - and before the WSOP he was trying to rebuild the bankroll playing professional backgammon again in Europe -

that's pretty innerestin...

I think in a recent interview, Doyle said rumours of Gus being broke are not true. I think he even said he made it all back.

There are many reasons he would say this whether it were true or not.

Yeah, but the most proof anyone could come up with was that Gus hadn't shaved so he must be hurting.

I heard that El Diablo is thinking about moving to NYC because the panhandlers have a union there.
