Deeb, did he pay you back? If yes, did he pay others he owed? Is he now your buddy?
Here's what I think happened: Debb used some of his WSOP winnings to settle with Barry Greenstein regarding their play on the OFC app.
Greenstein, who should have used the money to repay PokerStars for money he owes, opted to use the funds by giving them to his old friend Ted Forrest to help bail him out of his legal woes in Nevada.
Forrest, who should have used the funds to repay his debt owed to the Wynn, opted to use the funds for his retainer to pay his lawyer to fight jail time.
Forrest's lawyer then took the funds and used them in part to buy Eli's mansion at a discount.
Eli then used the mansion's net sales proceeds to settle with Deeb.
