    unfortunately i gotta think its highly unlikely. sounds like they were shoppin it around for a couple months already and found no takers. one interesting angle now would be someone could really play hero of the century for a forum full of raging gamblers...... at a pretty hefty price. risk/reward could possibly be worth it for the right canidate

    Take over a book that is already on the hook for $1.5 million? Nobody would trust this book again.

    i am really upset with sbr john here, why cant he figure something out? the guy has got to worth a couple mil and has made his career off us smuck fux that got burned..... if he had any diginity he would find a solution to this mess and restore confidence here instead of posting around as if its "business as usual here" he might as well start signing off his post with "cheers dumb asses"
