no...daniel said he was relatively poker broke
for the stakes of the big game after a $1.1m loss during the series in 2006 at bellagio where he was on the wrong side of a few $150k cap PLO pots. since that loss he has over $1.3m in tournament winnings and a big chunk of the $2m kirk morrison won at the WPT bellagio championship last year due to staking kirk.
he said a few weeks ago on fcp that he's only played "big" cash twice in the last year and is up about 300k.
even if he's losing money golfing, factor in the above, book and syndicated column income, and his deal with pokerstars and i think he's going to be ok
for someone always into other people's business you sure are ignorant.
i agree that while he probably has an edge in stud 8, the terms of the golf bet seem more important.
