Tony G: \"$500K Loss Last Month Only Small Fluctuation For Me.\" ??!!
 

I was reading the April 26th Tony G blog entry entitled "I am broke!!" Tony says everyone is accusing him of being broke beacause he missed the WPT Championship and the EPT in Monaco, and cashouts were a problem at his pokersite.

He claims that he in fact did lose $500k last month on "various things" and then says "but this is a small fluctuation for me."

Does Tony really have the kind of money that dropping $500k in a month is only a "small fluctuation?" Is his bankroll that big? Is he that good that losing $500k is just a SMALL fluctuation?

I thought Hansen had the big stake in Champs? Tony G seemed to be brought into it very late.

Tony G did not come from money. He has a number of business assets of his own outside of poker. He built them up himself.

When I was railing the 100k event at the aussie millions I was speaking to a guy that had 50% of Lisandro's buyin, who was hanging out with Tony all day, and he said Tony was 35 million from business. I don't know of I believe that or not, but this guy was hanging out with Tony and Lisandro the whole event..

Your wrong, Tony G is from the street, his family had no money. He made his money himself.

TonyG has made millions from PokerChamps, has his own poker site, and is the main shareholder of pokernews.com. I believe him when he says $500K is only a small fluctuation.

I heard he lost close to a million in a Super stakes game with Japanese billionaires- Im pretty sure he fabricates these stories himself though so he looks ultra balla

I'm worth over a million. None of you would believe that, but then none of you know me. Like none of you know Tony G.

Just two years ago at one of the Bellagio tournaments (don't remember if it was 5 star or 5 diamond) I heard Tony G tell someone that he was broke. I was standing right next to him and I remember being pretty suprised at the time because he was supposed to be one of those "millionare television pros".

Doesn't Tony G. own www.pokernews.com? At the very least, he's got a big % of it. The last time I checked that site was the second most visited poker site after www.twoplustwo.com. It's got plenty of affiliate links so I'm sure that brings in a lot of money.

I took an offer from pokernews and was credited $50 at Party Poker from "therealtonyg". I don't know what his connection is, but it is Tony G's personal account.
