    Haralabob Voulgaris, $1 million victim of Erick Lindgren, slams Daniel Negreanu in blog

    http://aloneinthecorner.com/post/332...lains-in-poker

    He makes some good points.

    However, while Negreanu is obviously being hypocritical when it comes to Lindgren, poker is still better off with a guy like Daniel speaking out against other injustices in poker.

    Just because Negreanu is giving Lindgren an undeserved pass doesn't mean that he's wrong about UB, Annie Duke, Howard Lederer, Chris Ferguson, et all.

    And it's good to have Negreanu bringing these issues to light, so the average poker fan/player (i.e. people who don't normally read forums) get a glimpse of what is really going on.

    One of the most incriminating things Howard said in the interview, and Voulgaris mentions in his blog, is that Erick received 2 mil extra as a clerical error.

    While none of this was illegal, there could be no better proof to show the indifference management had about the financial state of the company.

    Can you imagine waking up one morning to a 2 million headshot error to your account knowing you would never have to pay it back.

    Trust me if you received a $2 million clerical error in your bank and spent it...it's illegal. It's happened and the person on the receiving/spending end goes to prison.

    In most cases yes. In this case probably not.

    It happened to me for 50k about 5 years ago, it was one of the weirdest weekends of my life....

    I probably made some very bad short term decisions but it ultimately all worked out great in the end as I made 15k on it after 3 days...

    I talked about this in detail on one of the early radio shows i did.
