cyro, your whole opening post was a bunch of nonsense. you obviously read too much into what people say.
you also believe word of mouth information without having any substantial facts,
sammy farha is VERY rich outside of poker. his $ is tied up in oil and other business ventures, he is very comfortable and is in no way "broke"
doyle brunson may or may not be losing money in the big game but think of all the endorsments and other things hes got going on. just like with a pro athlete the majority of a pro athletes money comes from endorsments and NOT from their salaries playing their respective sports.
to a billionaire 5million is like 500bucks to any normal person, it stings but it makes no difference in the grand scheme of things.
many players do sell of their action, at times only having 25% of themselves, by doing this they minimize their downswings.
sorry cyro but everything you have said is just pure nonsense
