Breaking News from WSOP...

GOT THIS FROM 2+2.....POSTED BY SOMEONE ELSE I JUST READ IT...

"Read on Talk About Network about Fischman being walked out of Casino by security. It was reported that he was caught dumping chips.

I called someone in Vegas that has contacts.
And the only thing my source would confirm is "Fischman is in deep [censored]"!

I guess if it pans out that it's true..this might be the scandal that the poker world has been waiting for."

that is messed up and it wil lbe interesting to see how it unfolds.

Dumping chips works quite well at your local casino, BUT NOT in the WSOP!!!!

I cant even believe this story except that maybe he was saving the big chips for the main event or something

ClipJoint · Jun 7, 2005

Would anyone really be that stupid to try this at such a large scale event?

:monsters-

PO69 · Jun 7, 2005

I believe that it could happen, I would just think that a lower caliber player woud do it

What is the website that you saw this from??

primetime21+ · Jun 7, 2005

if you read the rest of the discussion at 2+2 you will see that some people are saying that the whole story is BS. Supposedly he is playing in the omaha tournament.

Well it isnt 20 years in jail I wouldnt think. I mean those chips cant be turned in for cash directly. But it could get you "univited" to a bunch of future tournaments.

Can someone PLEASSSEEE give me this website????

WildBill · Jun 7, 2005

This happens every now and then. A former tournament manager over at the Orleans got caught up in it once and got canned, his reputation pretty much ruined forever. I can see some small stakes tournament with tons of rebuys being a place you might get away with it for awhile, but the WSOP is a little more organized to think you can find a way around it. The place is plenty well covered with cameras, they have a big scaffolding up above all the tables for lighting and camera coverage. Nothing like the weak setup they had in the bingo room over at Binions.

Can a brother get a link for this infamous

2+2 site????

Whatever the hell it is??

ProPokerPlayer · Jun 7, 2005

It does appear on further investigation that this was a scam post....several people who are actually there are saying nothing of the sort happened...the chip dumping, being escorted out, none of it.......im sure if it is true the las vegas newspapers will have something on it by morning...but at this point it does appear to be false.

SportSavant · Jun 7, 2005

what is the process & the benefit to the player?

ProPokerPlayer · Jun 7, 2005

For the brother...WHO NEVER ANSWERS HIS PHONE!! LOL

thanks

WildBill · Jun 7, 2005

I used to post at 2+2 all the time and this sort of stuff was common back then. Players with agendas would start some crap and next thing you know 75 people chimed in and you had no idea if it was true or not. At the end people forgot what they were even arguing about, but would go at each other anyways. I am sure with the poker craze its many times worse now.

PO69 · Jun 7, 2005

I cant even find the story on the site, but that site is sort of cluttered anyway. Seems like a waste of time
