of all those mentioned so far it seems arieh fits best.

on a side note: is there any pro that Lindgren doesn't stake?

Where does E-Dog get the money to back the guys, himself, Arieh, Gavin Smith?

sounds made up...

I was like 100% sure it was made up but it's sorta hard to believe that almost everyone else was leveled by this so I'm assuming I was wrong.

I guess all the live guys are finally realizing they suck and they've been doing everything wrong for years and years.

Hehe for people who say the article makes them sad.... I have basically no respek for lvie players anyway and see no reason to feel bad about them now. Live players are donk. And I also think that if this guy really wanted to protect his friend he would write things as accurate as a bust-out hand, seems like an easy misdirection.

From having his horses make him millions? If he had a piece of Arieh in 04 and Smith in 05 and Mortenson in 07 those are big scores.

Being part of the FTP A team proably helped.

I have heard (though cannot confirm)E Dog comes from a family of tremendous wealth. I believe he inherited $22M two years ago, but maybe it was less, not sure.

He is loaded though, make no mistake about that...

"After the conversation had ended, we asked if we could recall the conversation as best as we could..."

If I was the one being interviewed I would have remarked, "If you have to ask me than no, I really don't think it is possible."

I think itīs that british player with the crepy smile who was in a documentary about 2 years ago.
He had a child with a russioan mailorderbride and wanted a DNA test to prove it wasent his.
I have absolutely no reason to think heīs the one, but he probobly is.

[/ QUOTE ]

I saw that documentary, it had Hellmuth call his dad and tell him that he knew the filmakers would turn it into a doco about him instead of all the players. The british guy was just pathetic though, I doubt this article is about him because my guess is that he is already broke.
