Pretty sick his first recorded cash is a £1mill bink. I want to know what companies these guys own so they have this much time off to travel playing nosebleed-stake tournaments. Pretty sick stuff!

Don't mean this to sound 'insulting' or anything but the amount of Chinese/ other Asian businessmen multi-million/billionaires is disgusting...

We in the west have no appreciation of just how much money there is from all the Asian businesses around the world/ in asia directly.  I've spent a chunk of time in Beijing directly and a lot of the Chinese owners live there just cruising around with money like you couldn't believe.

Skip back a little over a 100 years and you'd hear this argument being made by the Chinese and those from the Indian sub-continent with the English cruising around with money like you wouldn't believe...

How is the current balance disgusting?

Well yes, not quite sure how it could be deemed "disgusting", or what that has to do with their Asian or Chinese background.

Yes. Very intelligent and EXTREMELY wealthy man :)

Richard Yong would love to know his background speaking to a few of my friends who've played the big games in Macau they all said he's actually a pretty useful poker player.

Terje is Terken89 on stars and an absolute monnnnsssstttter.
