Default Re: Which online superstars have gone busto recently?

I've got some decent stuff on well known euro player michael thuritz.

I met him in early 2005 when we got HU to go to a final table in australia and we swapped 15% and eventually won the tournament and promptly shipped me 15,000.

I had heard after that he went on a HUGE run online/live and had a 2nd in a big tournament in Europe. Most interesting about that specific tournament is the guy did the taping is a friend of mine and said during one hand 3 handed michael ran off to the bathroom quick and his hand was folded, turns out he had KK and the guy who busted him HU had QQ and given what board fell he almost surely would have busted him. He told me next time he saw michael he'd tell him.

Anyway i ran into him during day 3 of WSOP ME and had a little chat about how he'd been. He confirmed that he'd run his roll over to about 1.5 M then casually says "yea but then i lost like 1.4M" and had a little laugh.

I then asked him if the guy who did the taping ever told him about the hand he missed while in the bathroom and he had no idea, so i let him know. He found that hilarious.

Good guy.
