RIP Meatman

He never attacked anyone that didn’t attack him first.

As he liked to say, he was only a counter puncher.

possibly the most inaccurate thing ever posted at EOG

Wonder how many people die in Vegas hotel rooms in a year. Counting the fleabag motel rooms and extended stay. Hmmmmmm my guess 6or7 a month. Let's call it 90 people a year. Probably more.

Brings to mind the dark comedy "Very Bad Things" , which The Hangover ripped off.

Stu Unger died in a low class motel (Oasis) in Vegas

Room 6 at the Oasis Motel.

He paid $48 for two nights.

He never made the second night.

Ungar was 45.

 

[John Kelly]

Stu Ungar "amassed" an estimated $30 million in poker winnings.

He died with $800 in his pocket.

Did anyone check Meaty's pants pockets for winning tickets? They may expire if forced to go through probate.

Is there any service John? With no house/property and likely no will, what do they do? cremate and mail the urn to his relatives?

 

[John Kelly]

Meaty appreciated dark humor.

All is forgiven.

You cant take it with you, so might as well spend it

Especially with his talent-- he could have always made more

He spent most of his poker winnings on cocaine and on casino games where he held no advantage.
But it's true, his terrible bankroll management was due to the fact he believed he could win at poker any time, which was probably accurate.

Truly a degenerate, but was the best poker player I have ever seen....

He was a character.

RIP Dave.

Thanks for checking in, men.

RIP Dave

Don’t think Dave could ever Rest In Peace....

 

[dariaphile]

Sad to hear of Dave’s passing. I used to go on his KLAV radio show to talk poker. He even got his listeners to chip in for a $500 entry for a poker tournament at the Imperial Palace and rightfully gave me grief when I flamed out in a couple hours.

My interactions with the man were more positive than negative.

RIP Dave “The Meatman” Scandaliato

 

[John Kelly]

Ahh yes.

Loved them.

I didn't see this until today. Yes, that is the movie. The Asian hooker died on the coat rack.
