I\’m not sure I really get the lawsuit, but Tiger Woods and Roger Federer have gotten caught up, by proxy, in some sort of big-time shady gambling allegations, where a printing company claims the owner of Woods\’ and Federer\’s management company, IMG, placed millions of dollars of bets, sometimes against his own clients, based on \”inside\” information. And somebody owes someone shares of the company to pay off debts?
Hmm, again, not claiming to really get these non-poker lawsuits, but sounds like it could all be as inconsequential as Crispin Leyser vs. Jamie Gold. Possibly truly scandalous, maybe not, but either way, don\’t these guys understand real gamblers have a lot pending on gambling matters these days … and we don\’t need douchebag pro athletes screwing things up for us by making gambling look \”shady\” or \”bad\”!
Jeesh … if you\’re gonna bet against a friend, colleague, or client — especially with potential match fixing perceptions in play — you gotta at least tweet about it. Friggin\’ non-poker amateurs.
At least they didn\’t do whatever they did online.
