Wasn't he talking about poker sucking these days a few years ago? Maybe he's semi retired now as poker took a butt ****ing the last 7 years or so.

Pokernews just interviewed him a few weeks ago at either Sochi or Monte Carlo. I forgot which one. But he said he'd be in vegas all month for the WSOP but would be playing high stakes cash games only. No tournaments

Just a hunch but maybe just maybe he quit playing.

I remember playing with both of them a lot when I played Ladbrokes. I miss those leaderboards. The small number of entries to a lot of Ladbys tournies meant you often knew a bunch of people, and there was some fun banter too.

Yes. Just like Tuan Lam (runner up to Jerry Yang). He kept spending more and more time in Vietnam and eventually lost all desires to head back to Vegas

Wasn't he implicated in the UB super user scandal? I think he vanished from the poker world after that.

Hmmm I don't think he was a part of that but maybe I am wrong. I do remember he was blasting Jamie Gold when he won the main regarding a deal Jamie made with someone and didn't want to pay. Pretty ironic if he was involved in that scandal.

He has a solo law practice in LV. His Twitter is all Trump-hate. all the time. No mention about still playing poker. Just a reminder that he co-hosted the short-lived PPT on the Travel Channel.
