quote:
Do you know for a fact that he got royalities? My impression was rather that, like many Gypsies, he used to ask for a flat fee up front — almost certainly to his own detriment, of course. No, I don't know that he got royalties. That was just an assumption. As for money, I saw him several times showing up at various places in New York in a limo, wearing a nice suit and with a beautiful young blonde on his arm--not the same one every time. When I heard about poker, I asked a friend who played in medium-size games, a few thousand bucks per pot. Fairly serious money for New York in 1962. "Little Spanish guy, big diamond ring, wears shades and a wig? Yeah, he plays in the big ones--and he wins." RNJ
