I have no idea how many can play pool, but there are dozens and dozens of fund managers (maybe even in the hundreds) that can play for that kind of dough. Of course that doesn't change the fact that this whole story has been complete fiction from the beginning, and anybody who at any point even wondered if it might possibly be true doesn't have much sense at all IMO.
Yes there are many hedge fund managers that can wager lots of money on any number of things. But I challenge you to find 5 that will wager that kind of "lumber" on their pool game! And then I challenge you to find 5 hedge fund managers that can play with some speed.
Trust me, the story would sound much better if it was a drug kingpin.
