It is said that basketball stars like Michael Jordan and golfer John Daly are always on this list, for the wrong reason- lost big sum of money!

Spiderman does gamble too, LOL.
Tobey Maguire
Tobey Maguire, Spiderman himself, was one of the players that were defeated by Ben Affleck at the Commerce Casino's California State Poker Championship but he soon made a strong comeback when in October 2004 he won $186,000 at a $2,000 buy-in tournament at the Hollywood Park Casino.
He also won the $2,000 Phil Hellmuth Invitational for $95,480 and cashes at the WPT and WSOP.
Poker legend Phil Hellmuth said this about Maguire: "He showed tremendous focus and determination. I predict that he will become one of the better poker stars."
Maguire is known to hold regular poker games for high rollers at his Hollywood Hills home, with players such as Dennis Hopper, Matthew Perry, Sharon Stone and Robert Downey Jr.

There are also some lucky ones who can actually make a fortune out of gambling, such as actors Ben Affleck and Matt Damon at poker. You might have already seen many of Ben's movies, but do you know that in 2004, he won US$356,000 at the California State Poker Championship?
Others like Demi Moore and Alex Rodriguez like to go to Las Vegas, gamble in casinos, just for a short getaway vacation.

Jennifer Tilly's Vital Stats:
In 2005, Jennifer Tilly established herself as not only an actress, but a true champion, when she won not only the Ladies Event at the World Series of Poker, but also the Ladies Night Invitational of the World Poker Tour, making her not just the first woman to win both titles in a single year, but ever.

I am wondering why all you posters are using the same IP address and posting in the same 3 topics. It is very strange and you all may get banned.

Tobey Maguire is just one piece of a huge FBI investigation of convicted hedge fund manager Brad Ruderman. Brad was convicted for using over $25 million of investor’s money to engage in high stakes poker games. Over $300k of this money was reportedly given to Tobey Maguire, just one of many a-list celebrities who were involved in these illegal poker games.

No offense guys, but who really cares, we're just a site who like to inform each other of new offers, congratulate each other when we win and console each other when we loose.....just my opinion of course!
