Tobey Maguire Sued Over Multi-Million Dollar Illegal Poker Game; DiCaprio, Affleck & Damon Invo - Page 9 - Poker News

"Maguire won as much as $1 million a month over a period of three years, one source told Star, which is on newsstands Wednesday."

"That means he could have made up to $30 to $40 million from these games," the whistle-blowing card shark predicted.

That woulb be sick if true

I can't even begin to tell you how much I'm in love with the idea that Spiderman is one of the most successful poker players in history.

Yeah the estimations of his "winnings" are just sensationalized non-sense (or just legit stupidity).

I've won $1200 in 30 minutes at 1/2 NL before, so therefore I can make $2400 an hour, which means I can make 96K a week if I play 40 hours a week, meaning I can make ~5 million dollars a year!

WOW.

Sorry to derail but if you look into it further, the water was nearly 200 degrees and her crotch area was permanently scarred. Also, she got very little money in the end and probably deserved more than she got. Someone did a documentary on how badly this case has been reported and how it has affected American attitudes towards tort reform.

I said I wouldn't mind.... "that would mean I pretty much broke even but got play 16 hours a day every day."

So, anyway.... isn't this Tobey Maguire game the one that Doyle Brunson always talks about playing in?

Yep, definitely.

I wonder if he brings along any of his old cheating crew to the games, whoever of them is alive that is.

i think tobey maguire should have to pay back the money. same for leo and the rest of the crew. they used trickery to obtain this money which was stolen from hard working citizens.

the ruderman cat needs to have an additional 3 yrs tacked on to his sentence for gambling away his client's money. if he had spent it on private school for his kids or a nice boat then that would have been money not considered to be wasteful.

They should only have to pay back the money if they sucked out or bluffed. If they won it fair and square with the best hand they should get to keep it.
