Rakefree=Dutch Boyd?????

[HUSKER'66]

Look I know there are several posters here that are excited about Rakefree.com . I also know that someone that has admitted to being involved with the site mentioned that Dutch has no involvement in this particular site.

Why on the WSOP showing of the Razz tourny that aired for the first time today, does Dutch have a "rakefree.com" shirt and hat on as well as several members of his "crew"?

Curious minds would like to know.

I am not trying to hop on the bashing of the site, I would just like to have someone in the know clarify.

It is bait. Whether he uses the URL for a poker client or not, he has the pitch for investors located there.

www.zerorake.com

not affiliated with dutch boyd.

his site, rakefree.com, is not up yet.

Rakefree.com is Dutch's site, this is well publicised and no-one denies this.

Zerorake.com is supposedly a completely different enterprise, with no Dutch involvement. This is the site that is currently causing all the hoo-ha.

Beck,

There's too much to put here. Go to the search funtion above; enter "dutch boyd" as subject and body, and use the internet forum for your search....go back maybe six months to yesterday.

You'll get all the info/gossip you need.

in brief:
- He's a poker player (was featured quite a bit in the 2003 WSOP)
- He founded a now defunct poker site, and a lot of people (users) lost all the money that was deposited on the site.

The real debate comes when determining his level of "blame" and just how much he did or didn't do in order to right any wrongs. Some people feel like it wasn't his fault, others feel he is a fraud and cheat.
