160k to see a flop is some Molly's Game type ****

Confirmed by Santosh during the HCL stream talking to Dwan:

Great find!

If I heard correctly it was only a 1 day PLO game and the guy lost £16m �� wtf

The more I read about him the more it’s likely he was laundering drug money, having been arrested for exactly trying to do that before.

Hahaha wow. Maybe he set up the milkshake woman... it's like the Lee Harvey Oswald perp walk, except with more dairy.

Yeah saw this too, wtf could he possibly do for Farage except for donate, he appears to be some sort of security detail/advisor, which is odd as hes like 30 years his junior. Whole thing is strange, also not a good look for Farage.


prepare him for jail time?

I'm sure he's just there for the clout/influence/attention.

I doubt he will ever need to do any real work.

Where's the clout when they guy has been nicked for literal money laundering for drug money, illicit gambling etc. There must be more to it than that, he's not someone you want to be asscoiated with at all, especially being a politician.

The man dropped $20 million in one night and you're wondering what upside there is for a politician to hang out with him 😀
Go down the wikipedia rabbit hole and it gets clear that Cottrell's family is bizarrely rich and has connections straight into the damn royal family. His mother literally dated king charles. His mother dated the king of england. Well, the man who currently is.


So they played 100k/200 blinds and he lost 16m? That´s not even 100bbs...so calm down


Definitely some Russian involvement here. He's Farage's "bodyguard" too.

Dodgy asf.

True enough.

Rob Yong mentioned it was 200k ish to see a flop so thats what, 5/10k or 10/20k it mustve been.


wtf wears shoes with tassels…

Wonder if there was a recorded stream of this game? I would bet against it at these stakes. Would love to see who has the tolerance for those stakes (I doubt any pros were invited in)



^ Brian Hastings looking good!


Interesting article which sent me down the rabbit hole of Tony Bloom, what a crazy wikipedia page that guy has.

With their power and status, I doubt Tony or George will receive any consequences outside of a fine.

Good stuff!

I wonder how the Syndicate were able to still get action on this whales account given it would’ve turned from whale to sharp pretty quickly given Blooms takeover of the account. They shut you down the moment you start to show any signs of being +ev so it’s odd that it was allowed to profit to the extent that article states.


Whatttttt?!


Brutal


damn
