Poker Article Question

[PocketAces]

I just read an article the other day about how what they called "big time poker" is currupt.

It spoke about how Juanda and other staked the Mouth in this years WSOP.

It quoted Daniel N. He said everyone knows certain people "belong" to other players but that they police themselves.

I was talking about it with a guy who didn't believe what I was saying. I didnt think the subject was that big of a deal but I'd like to send it to my buddy.

If anyone else saw the article could you send me the link or the article?

Thank you,

AA

Sounds like jail.

They should make a mini-series about this subject and put it on ESPN.

No knowledge here on if it's fact or fiction.

i don't have the article, but i can assure you that many of the top pros, not all, but most have some sort of stakes of each other in the bigger tournaments. its not uncommon at all.

they are to police each other as to prevent the idea of chip dumping or soft playing.
