The TOKE: Ungar Gets a Foundation, Hu Gets a Wicked Chops Prediction, + That Whole "Is Poker a Sport?" Argument Gets More Ink
:: People get addicted to gambling? Like global warming and heterosexual AIDS, the myth of gambling addiction remains prevalent in American society. For people allegedly addicted to gambling, the daughter and the former wife of Stu Ungar have established the appropriately named, "Stu Ungar Foundation." Ungar, widely-recognized as the world's most talented Gin and hold'em player when he was alive, allegedly had a gambling problem. Now we don't want to get all Tom Cruise on you, but we say Ungar "allegedly" had a gambling problem because any issues Ungar may have had with gambling were not rooted in some deep-seeded psychological addiction--it was because he did not perform the necessary auditing to rid himself of the body thetans adversely affecting him.
