A few months back, Barry was playing Omaha Hi/Lo on Full Tilt, and someone asked him about this. Barry said it was OK for him to play on FT because he was "checking out the competition", in his words.

Why would Barry be contractually obligated to only play on Stars? Isn't he more of a live promotional spokesperson for the site?

Pachabel = Jamie Gold (possibly)

I've heard from Jamie Gold that this is true.

Barry has said on this site he has never played using the CrazyZachary account, although he knows several people who have.

And as far as pachabel being Jamie Gold, it's obviously not him. The best evidence is that Jamie is saying it is him. Remember, when Jamie is at the poker table, he tells the truth but wants you to think he is lying. Away from the poker table, he lies but wants you to think he's telling the truth.

Todd Brunson said on this site he didn't think it was Jamie at first, because pachabel couldn't answer a simple question Jamie could have. When Todd talked to Jamie in person, he told Todd it really was him, but admitted that he "sometimes" let his friends play on it.

My guess is "sometimes" > 90%.

They play winning poker for long periods of time during the day. I don't think Grimstarr sleeps. He's literally awake for the whole day just playing and winning.
