I'm pretty sure Ted Forrest is not robusto outside of poker although it is a common misconception.

I don't remember where it was specifically but I read a bio of him once and he has been known to gamble away his last dollar. I remember he lived in his car for a while, while grinding out the 10-20 stud games at the Mirage.

I'm almost sure that I read this somewhere but if I didn't, meh, this is NVG anyways.

David Williams was a student and pretty much a professional Magic: The Gathering player I think.
