Message: [QUOTE="OzExorcist, post: 934199, member: 23910"] That's the short story - the slightly longer version (if you believe internet and industry scuttlebutt, I'll leave that call up to you) is that he was a [I]part [/I]owner of a tech company that got sold for gazillions, so the proceeds were split between him and a bunch of others. Yes he made a buttload of cash, but not the swimming-in-it gazillions that some people assume. Or so the story goes. No bones about it, the guy's rich and he's a fairly successful donkament player - I'd trade places in a heartbeat. But is he a multi-gazillionaire? No, probably not. That's probably because it's exactly the way those pros want it. Tournament winnings (the "career winnings" that I suspect Toolzz is referring to) are public knowledge, but they're very rarely what a player is actually "worth". [/QUOTE]
