sick house, pretty much confirms he's from old money
HOF
Divorce... is this cost-effective?
EDIT: I don't have time to search for the hatguy gif I made a while back. +1 rep to anyone that tracks it down for me.

My guess is that he tried a triple barrel bluff on the river and she called via divorce attorney. Tbh, I've always thought that Prahlad would eventually come out.
Title of this thread should be Prahalad vs Dee HU 4 Life Rollz...

At the center of the divorce proceedings is this house:
Weird situation regarding the size of the house.
It is listed as 3,001 square feet, yet the for-sale listing claims that the "owner claims it's 4200". What?!
http://www.zillow.com/homedetails/26...20553727_zpid/
It is for sale for $2.3 million.
It's techinically in Malibu, but is miles from the beach.
Not surprising because a chip runner at Commerce talked tons of trash about Prahald to Dee, and she just giggled. This was not too long before they got married. (I think this was in 2004 or 2005.)
Prahlad was an unknown at that point, and Dee was playing in my game (I think 80-160 limit), sitting next to me. Prahlad was also in the room, but a few tables down playing NL.
A chip runner who knew Dee from the past approached her and said hello. Apparently he hadn't seen her in awhile. After BSing back and forth, he asked her if she was seeing anyone. She pointed to Prahlad.
The chip runner responded, "What?! Him?! Him?! You've gotta be kidding me. Seriously, that's who you're with?"
He then proceeded to talk all kinds of crap about Prahlad, and instead of defending him, she just giggled as the chip runner bashed him, and then finally weakly offered a defense like, "Oh, well he's a really nice guy though. You have to get to know him." But it seemed like that was more defending her choice than Prahlad himself. I could just tell from the whole exchange that she didn't have much respect for him.
I was surprised when I heard years later that they were married. I had assumed by the way she reacted to that chip runner that they would be breaking up within a few weeks.
Prahlad's promotion of UB was the worst. It was worse than Sebok or any of the others. This is because he was a huge 6-figure victim of the cheating, and was (along with Brad Booth) somewhat the "face" of the UB superuser scandal. When he did an about-face and promoted them as "The New UB", this was beyond unethical. This was worse than any of the other UB pros, because they weren't vicitms -- or if they were, it wasn't for very much. Here was Prahald, the guy who had $500k or more stolen from him, and he was now promoting that same site, insisting that it was under new management. Many naive people thought, "Wow, if the biggest victim of the cheating feels safe representing them now, I guess I can trust them, too."
Turned out the whole thing was a lie and there was no "new UB". And that evidence was presented to Prahald, who dismissed it and told everyone to go stick it up their collective asses.
Even worse, Prahlad was a longtime progressive, left-wing, anti-corporate activist. His entire being was dedicated to sticking up for the little guy. He even refused to take any sponsorships for years prior to joining UB, claiming that he didn't want to be a corporate sellout.
And then he sold out to the most evil poker corporation of them all. And he knew it, but he didn't give a crap because he was greedy.
I hope the new Webster's dictionary puts a picture of Prahlad under the phrase "limousine liberal", because that's exactly what he is.
She is also 10 years older than him.
He's 35, she's 45.
Do either of them even play poker anymore? I do not recall seeing any Asian chicks in the top section that look like her. Prahlad would actually be more difficult to spot (for me at least), because he looks like a ton of guys that play 10-20 NL.
On a side note, Russell Westrook has been playing 10-20 NL a lot. He is actually still limping around a little bit, although he is not on crutches.
the first time i saw dee she was dating Huck, right around the time he won the WSOP. The bellagio wasn't built yet I don't think, but she was playing the highest limit hold'em game at the Mirage (40-80 I think). She looked great back then and I later heard she broke Huck's heart.
I remember Huck was playing short handed mixed games and he had more chips than I had ever seen in my life in front of him at that point so it might of been after he won the main event. He was playing 400-800 short handed and as an uninitiated neophyte to the Vegas scene, I was mesmerized by both of them, how high they were playing, etc, etc. This was 1996, pre poker and Internet anything really, and the 2 of them were true poker celebrities in my mind. The scamming, thieving, looting, self-involved, narcissist, ESPN-created poker celebrities who came long after them shouldn't be trusted to run their chips, much less keep their ill-gotten hundreds of millions. Team Full Tilt and their looted, stolen millions can suck my dick.
Huck seems like a great dude from the few times I played him or saw him out.
Huck eventually went broke.
I don't have much personal experience with him, but I did play at his table for some time at the 2012 $5000 Limit Holdem event. (That's the one I bubbled, though Huck was gone long before that happened to me.)
In that event, Huck was in a bad mood because he went from a good sized stack to a short one, yet Pokernews had him listed with his earlier (larger) stack. I guess he was getting texts from friends saying, "Wow, see you're kicking ass today!" and it was tilting him, because he had to explain to each one of them that he was actually short. He finally blew up and grabbed the first Pokernews employee he could find (the brother of What_Is_7x6, btw) and berated him. I tried to diffuse the situation by explaining that Pokernews was understaffed and behind on everyone's counts, so therefore individual chip reporters aren't to blame. Huck ignored me and kept berating the guy. I felt bad for him.
Anyway, was Dee ever a successful poker pro? Or was she just one of those decent-but-not-great Asian female limit players, who play well enough to beat the game moderately, but derive most of their money from latching onto successful male poker players and sponging off them until they're broke?
BUMP
Colonel Fabersham called the home phone number of that home, it appeared that Dee answered the phone (and hung up on the Colonel after 10 seconds).
So I think we know who got the house.
BUMP
New wife, new problems.
Prahlad is a jealous man and wants Twitter to know it.

Soooooo.... I guess the lesson here is that it's totally cool to encourage your much younger wife to post scantily-clad pics and videos all over the internet, but at the same time you should have a Twitter hissy fit if someone responds with a heart emoji.
Got it.
Though I loved this reply:
