let me say this efren has never offered me weight playing 9ball or parica or anyone for that matter. i used to practice with efren and parica for 50 and 100 dollar sets. they would bet high playing even but would not give me nothing in 9ball, or plat me banks at all . i understand why parica wouldnt cause in the LA open in 93 he had me 4-0 in a race to 5, i beat him 5-4 . 9 ball banks broke and ran 3 racks on him:)..... also i used to carry largs sums of money at times in my
life mostly from poker sometimes 50k cash or chips. so there not just stories.........


You carried all that cash around, 50k? How is it you never got robbed? That's like a new car and 4 years of my student loans all rolled into one.

The time I saw Mark play Archer for $8,000 at the Bicycle Club he had the biggest wad of $100's I had ever seen a person carry. The story I had heard was that he had just won over $200,000 playing poker at the Mirage. Mark how much was your biggest score playing poker?

Matthew,

You must not like nice cars if you can get one that cheap.

Well, I owe 30k in student loans. So 18 or 20 thousand dollars for a car isn't horrible. It's not a lexus or a caddy, but it beats walking.

There was this Pro Poker player that will remain nameless....He always got paid in cash so there were no records for the IRS....He would put the money in the trunk of his car...One time he was on a run and had bult up 100K in cash.....His car got stolen while he was in the casino one time...I wonder how surprised the thieves were when (and if) they opened the trunk...


That's crazy. I think I would cry. Maybe money means something different to me than to someone else.
 
Talk about a lot of money.....I met Gus Hansen the other night at Bellagio, and asked him how night was going....he pointed towards his table, and there was a stack of 500 and 1K chips everywhere....he said he was up about 200K, and it was a OK night. unreal.
