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 is a trusty fund kid. Family $. He's loaded away from poker.

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.
