Maurice Hawkins still owes his backer after so many years.
Feature table time at the TOC
Made Day 2 of the Freeroll basically on the bubble with just over 100 left. Did he qualify more than once to this event?
To stretch/stir just because that's what we do here .. So if he was backed/stacked in NC, AND that's the reason he qualified for this Freeroll, should those parties also get a piece of anything he takes home from here?
Didn't really watch the stream much yet .. but may just listen to it in the car to see how much the mic picked up on him and the others.
To give him some credit, for all the dust surrounding him, he has sustained success over a long period of time. Perhaps he also knows his place playing WSOPc events rather than trying to step up or get caught up in the cash game streams. Does he really play a full WSOP schedule? And I'm not trying to be negative with this at all. He may be smart in the 'fact' that he is in his wheelhouse playing +EV in Circuit Events rather than trying to 'step up.
Lots of other 'dust makers' have faded away fairly quickly from the poker world. Whether you think by scam, other or a mix of both it would be remiss if you don't acknowledge that he's been doing this, at the same level of poker, for a very long time in poker terms. GL
No one is denying that he has some live poker chops. The fact that his game is centered around verbally abusing people is certainly a moral grey area though. The jury is not out on whether or not he is a scammer though. It is a fact. Do not make any financial agreements with this man.

Any sort of verbal sparring would lose its edge the second you start repeating "your a verified scammer" every time he opens his mouth
That will up to the agreement between him and his backers.
I have played with him several times and from what I see, he is very very good at getting recs to play with their egos instead of their brains. Solid poker fundamentals too, obviously.
We will probably never see him on the high roller circuit, he cant tilt those guys into donating stacks to him.

To give him some credit,
When you lose Other Peoples money when you lose but keep the money when you win pretty easy to be active for a long time.
