Rancho Palos Verde is one of the nicest areas in Los Angeles county... a much nicer area than Beverly Hills or Brentwood. The ocean views are awesome:00hour

poker bought all of that. he barely made a living (compared to this lifestyle) with his job that's why he went poker pro. and he even says poker bought all that in the video.

are you sure?? I thought he made a mint at Symnatec and retired in his 30s?

I've never understood the Joe Sebok connection either. Is Joe his stepson; maybe his ex-wife's child from a previous message?

It is well known and documented that Barry Greenstein gives all the money he wins at poker tables to charity.

hence the nickname - the Robin Hood of Poker

no it's not. "tournament poker" yes but not all of his poker winnings.

Were you the founder of a software company?
Not really. I had my own (one-person) software company when I was in my teens and twenties, but I didn?t make much money from it. In 1985, I was one of the initial employees at a start-up company that became known as Symantec.

But you made lots of money at Symantec which enabled you to finance your poker career, right?
My salary at Symantec was far less than I could have made playing poker at that time. But my years at Symantec were very fulfilling since I was able to do something productive. Also, during my time as a programmer it was easier for me to help my children become more computer literate.
