Back to the OP: Is the gist of the story that some (hypothetical person William is talking about) signs for tourney wins that aren't his in order to help the people who cashed the tournaments avoid the taxes?

Re: Assumptions about a well known poker pro.
[ QUOTE ]
why would it be IRS - if the US have a double tax treaty with the relevant scandy country it's their Revenue who is losing out not the USA IRS? [/ QUOTE ] It is possible William mentions the IRS as a generic term for government taxation. It is also possible that the players in question are American - it wasnt William but some other dude who first said it was Gus Hanson and some scandinavian players who were involved with this.

Re: Assumptions about a well known poker pro.
i don't see how any of this could be proven by the tax authorities,even if it was really obvious what was going on (like if the player had only ever "backed" winners or whatever) how can you prove it?

[ QUOTE ] I think hes talking about Gus Hansen, he had apparently had a huge percentage in a lot of the scandi WPT winners. Same for martin Dekniff [/ QUOTE ] I believe William has posted in the past(years ago)that he and Gus go way back and used to play together in underground games around Denmark. So you may very well be correct(and William may very well know something). [/ QUOTE ] It does sound like it. Just recently I know that Gus had Mads Andersen.

Re: Assumptions about a well known poker pro.
lol, I have seen this done with my own two eyes, on a much smaller scale (a 5 figure tourny cash in vegas). They made it 99%-1%. They made it seem like it was common practice.
Who gives a [censored] tho? Since when is frauding the IRS a bad thing?

Re: Assumptions about a well known poker pro.
OP it sounds like a nice little scamola. Lets be fair who knows how long poker will remain as popular so if you got any kind of public poker image you need to be making as much coinage now as possible.
However, I dont think its something worth losing sleep over. In my eyes even if its a scam its just not that big a deal.
