The information you provide is true to your name.


Just because you are backed in your tourney-play doesn't mean you are bust.

It's not false. He must have been put into it by someone. I know he is being backed on the tournament circuit when he plays and he doesn't have a bankroll to play that game.

Trust me, I have a very good source.

the problem with, "very good" sources is that (unless it's Chau himself) - they can't know . keep spreading gossip though...that's what this forum is for.

WTF? If true, how has this rumor not been spreading like wildfire? Seems hard to believe!

Chau Giang is busted from a 23 million dollar bankroll.

Naw, he is just on a 2,875BB downswing.

He will get it all back and then some. Mark my words.

That seems absolutely incredible. I've heard that he can be a steamer, but unless he's dropping $100,000 markers onto the roulette table, losing that about seems impossible.

My source is Carlos Mortenson. I don't know why he would have given me false information or say something like that if he didn't know it were true.

I still believe that Chau was or is still broke. (Of course, his broke could be a couple hundred thousand as a bankroll, compared to like 1k for us).

I don't think Mortenssen is a good source for a rumor like this. However, it IS possible that he has lost a lot of money over the past couple of years or so. I think the rumor is that Greenstein and Ivy have won tons over that period of time, and who're they going to win it from? Gotta be another of the regulars cause it's a fairly small circle who plays that game with any regularity.

El D,

I heard you lost 50% of your roll recently on a prop bet with Ray Zee. What I heard was that you were talking to him on the phone and he mentioned there was a beaver in his back yard and he offered to bet you 50% of your roll on whether the beaver went to the left or the right from the spot he was resting on. Naturally RZ's word would be good enough as to the result. You then accepted and chose left, and RZ said wait a minute, and then went out back where he drug the dead beaver to the right. Then he came back and told you the result, and that it served you right for betting on beavers.

Good job dude. If you are in fact telling the truth, then you are selling out your source.

Good thing nobody believes you anyway.
