There is nothing that gets poker pros quite so upset as power, politics, money and greed – and there were at least 3 of those factors doing the rounds on Twitter as the likes of Bill Perkins, Cate Hall and Justin ‘Stealthmunk’ Schwartz all waded into an argument on the obscene earnings of Amazon founder and boss Jeff Bezos…
The old adage that ‘money makes the world go round’ has never been more true than in poker, but even though the pros themselves are very wealthy – in multi-billionaire Bill Perkins case, richer than Croesus – the debate about ‘how much is too much?’ was sparked by a revelation this week…

His tweets, however, are a mix of intelligent thought and… getting into or causing trouble – which is what makes most poker players fun to follow away from the tables as well as at them!
