A few questions for Haralabos

- I'd love to learn about some of the job offers Haralabos has been offered in the NBA, even if not outing the specific teams, and also what dollar amount a team would need to offer to give up betting. Also, what team(s) he'd love to work for.

- Biggest score while staking a poker player.

- Biggest single bet he's ever made on a sporting event (which one)

- Best piece of sports memorabilia he owns

Don't know if he'd want to get into it, but would be interested in what Haralabos thinks about Grantland now that Bill Simmons is gone. Their chats were so entertaining.

Would also be interested in his take about the long term of DFS. As a sports end-boss, does he see it as a long term venture that is interesting? Is it too small to interest someone like him? Does he see the industry as a whole lasting in any real form?

He's a huge get, you've moved up to "people who get interviewed on TV" papi.

I remember his tweet that said he doesn't play DFS.

Not sure if he does or doesn't. But he does have some hot takes on the industry

Yes I def recognize that name from 2p2. Getting Harry on would be epic to actually be able to confirm he was pokrparty, I really wonder what he is doing with himself these days. He has to still be playing poker, he was such an animal.

I got a message today from a friend of takechip that said he might be interested in coming on so we might be able to get both of the french canadian NL guys on at some point. I used to love his bluefire videos and accent.

Why do I need to think big? I guess thinking big is usually the goal of people when they start doing things like this. I really enjoy having the old time 2p2 legends on, I used to play with some at the tables and want to have the success they were having. Those are some of my favorite people to have on, it is really interesting to see what they are doing with themselves now and how poker success has effected their lives. In terms of guests to have on, it is def a much wider range of people to have on. I still want to have PLO players on and more unknown people on as well. Those are sometimes a gamble because you never really know how they will come off but I think its gone well so far.

Bill Simmons podcast is my #1 podcast I listen to now, I really enjoy the episodes Haralabos has been on. Will touch on the DFS, you worded it quite well.

haha I didn't really think about that, I have some more "people who get interviewed on TV" lined up as well that will be on at some point

Joey, great get with bob. I really gotta know what kinda watch Fedor was wearing, though!


Some questions that tie in to what some others have posted.

What risk mitigation/bankroll management techniques did Bob use when making bets?

When/if he was banned from some sports books did he send in mules?

Is Bob still active? If so what sports?

What percent of his sports bets were thru brick and mortar books vs online books?

I dunno he kinda ****s me now been waiting for his supposed completed book for 32 years and still seems to be no closer to being published.

Maybe Joey can find out what the hell is the story and if there indeed is a book

Yeah i guess i was thinking selfishly as in what I would like to see & not see. I don't really care too much what retired poker players are up too unless they are particularly interesting (sbrugby would be one), or in aejones case, could possibly say some interesting things about other gambling ventures. This is why the Ben86 ones are my absolute fav, getting a brief look into the mind of a current boss is amazing.

I don't think a single person has acted like that, just giving out light hearted opinions, which I'm sure Joey doesn't mind, maybe even likes.

99% of that stuff is complete bs. Anttonen is a big joke.

Telling a story how he busted from WSOP main with a bluff (he didn't play at all)

Selling shares to EPT, but didn't play because he overslept or was too tired or something (he couldn't play, because he has spent the money and couldn't register). When ppl asked refund he provided forged bank statement that he have money.

There is more but I start with those.

Not sure about the first one but pretty sure he has openly admitted to the second part and in fact publicly published the story. Doesn't make it right I agree but are u saying the story is bull**** or he in fact did it exactly as he has said?
