            The last few years for Dwan have been shit. Black Friday (he probably wishes he could go back to online poker), Durrrr Challenge fell apart, his dad is sick, debts, obvious sleep deprivation... what a tragedy.

                    so true

                    go to a 40$ buy in 1/2 table at any of the CA poker clubs and you'll see dudes who make homeless people seem dignified

                      I've never understood why everyone hates poker players

                      Even bus riding bald fuks who cap 30% on the best week look down on the poor card player

                          I actually like degenerates ergo why I used to frequent Hollywood Park casino and track. It's a little sick though watching dudes scrape together twenty bucks in 5's and 1's to rebuy short at a 40$ table.

                                            A lot of stories out there:
                                            * Did Dwan lose a good bit of $$ betting-sports?
                                            * Did Dwan lose $$ in the Asian-poker game? He always bets like a maniac.
                                            * Pretty well documented that Jungelman took him for good chunk of $$ in Heads-up poker game. Dwan never completed the challenge, I guess he felt that meant he didn't owe.

                                              It really is amazing. They'd rather run a sick bluff to the nth degree, than take responsibility for their $$.

                                                Eli is broke, too??

                                                I always thought he had money outside of poker for some reason.

                                                    I always thought he had money outside of poker for some reason.
                                                    Stories of him owing big, if u believe what u read.

Best option is just to stick to cash games and take some time off now and then. Poker drains you guys.
