When did Jungle go broke? I thought he moved to Canada to grind PS? I don't keep up too much, I know he has alot stuck on FTP, right?

I don't know what games he's being staked for, but even if he's not broke, being staked for nosebleeds isn't a bad deal.

He’s coming to Tony Resort to meet Nordas and Zasko and explore the forest (a jungleman can surely adapt to Lithuanian forests)

pretty sure Durrrr would do anything to avoid finishing the challenge and having all his online credibility stripped from him

durrrr ? why would he come back to play online on PS with the stakes available ?

He clearly won't. He plays the biggest games in the world.

Imagine being a 200 NL regular. Would you spend your time playing NL 10 ? NOOOOOO.

Stop doing comments like these

Well Durrrr is effectively under contract to finish the challenge. I think he'll buy out and it will cost him a significant amount.

edit: ^^^ Yeah that amount, I forgot what the actual arrangement was.

the challenge is nothing to durrr, I have seen him out in vegas pull out $1million worth of chips from his pocket.

If your ahead a nice chunk yourself and rich staker wishes to roll you to play high stakes. Surely you must bite his arm off. And I can't imagine a much better spot than knowing you can go enjoy your wealth or a proportion of it without having to worry about downswings.

I knew there is lost equity but surly happier and better quality of life

Further down the Tony post he says:

The Hungarian "is going to make the brat (Hellmuth) look like the hot dog riding fool he is!"

I think Tony enjoyed the 2p2 photoshops.
