    Does anybody know who the player was being discussed at length?...in the first few minutes of this weeks "Dream Table" show/s...Mike Matusow says not to take a long time thinking like "BLEEPED OUT" player...then Daniel Negreanu asks Scotty Nguyen if he has seen him...then Mike goes on to say he has taken smoking crack to a whole new level. Daniel also mentions how bad he looked last time he saw him....Who were they talking about?

    I believe that would be Vinny Vinh.

    I thought Ungar was the only one good enough to handle a crack addiction and still dominate the tables. I guess in the end it handled him though.

    this is such a sad story. vinh is a sick player and i wish he'd could just keep it together long enough to attend to his chip stack deep in a tourney.

    Pretty sure it is Vinny, and reports are now that he has cleaned up.

    If you can look back over the past several months, he would be the chipleader after day 1 and not show up for day 2 and such.

    Matasow talks about it on Poker Road radio back a few weeks ago when he was a guest on the show.

    has vinh been playing in any events these days, or is he concentrating on getting clean?
