I don't think Flint is a billionaire. Plus he holds regular games against the top pros.

Perhaps Kerry Packer. Aussie billionaire, huge gambler, hella cool guy in a way.

Beal lives mostly in Texas so it's unlikely.

FYP. When your a billionaire you don't live in one house or one state. I think Andy has a fair amount of business interest in California and a house.

Kerry Packer is quite a story. When I was a kid I caddied at Muirfield in Ohio (very good private golf course). Kerry comes in for a week and stays on the grounds, along with an entourage of friends and lady friends. At the end of the week he pays all his caddies $10,000 plus brand new golf clubs he had bought just for the trip. He also tipped a grounds crew guy $100 for a cigarette. There was a rumor that he once won $18 million in one night at MGM in Vegas, but I dont know if this is true.

I think Andy Beal has lost interest in playing since he already proved he can compete with the top pros at a reasonable level.

I don't think he lost interest, but last I knew Beal and the Corporation couldn't agree to terms on when/where/how big to play.

In a interview on CP, Todd said he went to LA about the 60million dollar tourney or whatever

"Andy Beal" sat down on my left in a 2/4 6-max game on Sunpoker last night. When I saw he was from "Dallas" it made me wonder.

Whoever it was, he/she was aggressive, but not great in that hour.
