                    Can't imagine Declan is bust. Are we claiming Nick Abou Rick too (was up to 215k an hour ago)

                    We can't forget NoelHayes either, flying with 500k

                        Looks accidental to me to be fair. He looks bored and must have presumed the card protector was the last one and not realised he exposed a card.
                        No beast so fierce but knows some touch of pity, but I know none, therefore am no beast.

                          Yeah, could be accidental, however eyes need to be on this fella just in case.

                                  I'm in the camp of 'give them the benefit of the doubt'. until evidence suggests otherwise.

                                    care to outline for the slow amongst us exactly what happened in the video? Was the dealer exposing a dead card or am I missing something?

                                      He picks the deck up and flips it over showing the ace of diamonds at the bottom

                                          You are operating on a level some of us can only dream about.

                                            What the hell! The guy right in front of the camera is so engrossed in proceedings that he doesn't even realise he is being pick pocketed! Madness, absolute madness.

                                              Declan Connolly 130,000 - Scott Margereson 101,500 (anybody know who he is? Down as Irish but there is an English pro by that name) & Nick Abou Risk on 495,000 they're the only ones that I can see still left in.

                                                  Kinda quiet & unassuming and probably doesn't get the recognition he deserves, maybe he just likes it that way. Hastings 3rd in chips as for the guy in 4th Fedor Holz that kid is seriously good, wizard!

                                                    I think if you speak to any regular players or anyone in The Fitz he is very highly regarded. Not one to go the high profile route.

                                                    Would be cool if the current Domestic Live Irish No 1 shipped it

                                                            That's all the Irish out of the running with Declan Connolly finishing 103rd for $46,890 while Nick Abou Risk finished in 72nd spot for $96,445. Big congrats to all the Irish who put in a tremendous showing this year.

                                                            In related WSOP questions got 2% piece of an American in the ME who cashed for $34k my take was that me (Irish) don't have to pay taxes on winnings he got word from his accountant that he has to pay taxes on my piece, spoke with Doke and he said that you don't, I don't have a ton of experience when it comes to stuff like this & I'm sure the same is for him and is looking to cover his side so he doesn't have the IRS on at him.

                                                            Seen this from David Peters when selling for the 500k at Aria -

                                                            For any cashes I'll need your Tax number and address to send you a 1099. If you are not from the US I will still need your tax info but you only have to pay taxes on it if your country requires you to do so. I will not take anything out from your payout.
                                                            That's what my take was on it.

                                                                                    I think 'love-em/hate-em' type characters are good for generating publicity which in turn is good for encouraging new people in, which in turn is good for the overall economy of the game.

                                                                                    You might have had to ignore him between now and November but I suspect he would have generated a lot more air-time in non-poker media than the rest of the actual Nov Nine together.
