Dee vs bartrum updates

That's crazy! May as well be playing on a cruise ship during a hurricane.

BTW, anyone have any background on Dee? I vaguely recognize his name, but don't know squat @ his pool resume. When I heard someone I'm basically clueless @ was going after $20K on the light vs the Smooth one, I was left scratching my head.

Is someone mad at their money or am I missing something?

Also known as being one of the best "working man" players, as in always holding down a full time job.
 
 
If I may add to it.

He is a total gentleman, has caught some of the worst breaks that a person can catch in life and fought back to regain his form as an incredible person and player.

I spent 50% of my time at Players, cornfeds, and Godiva's whoops, anyway, you can't find a better no BS person to play.

Rezin prolly has more money than I do, but what he can't handle on Nostroke vs Dee, I'll pick up.

Today, Dee adores his family and also donates his time to charity for children with cancer and other life-threatening medicalities.

He came from a big family, and he always had an open door for friends in need. That's how he and Corey came to together when Corey was a young'n.

In 2004, I think it was, Dee fell off a roof and hurt himself badly, so he was out of the pool circuit for a while. He came back to make a cameo appearance at the IPT and did well, as I recall, cashing a big number in Vegas.

Those who know Dee are also aware of his ability to pick horses. Dee is a natural handicapper at the track. He knows his horses well. ;)

Here's two Buckeye players at the IPT in Vegas. I haven't seen or heard about Aaron Czetli in a long time, but that's Dee on the right. :)
