Men The Master back at Foxwoods

For those who recall the scandals, of I think maybe 2 years ago now, with Men, his crew and the Foxwoods resort and their tournaments...

Men won an early event at the World Poker Finals already (in the Seniors division!). Anyways guess this means the he wasn't banned from the casino for life. I always liked Men, I didn't thinkl he was asbad as he was rumoured to be. If the rumours were true, he certainly wouldn't be back playing there.
Good to see it all worked out, and hes back winning.

Men The Master back at Foxwoods

If i recall correctly Men and his entourage were kicked off the property and out of the rest of the tournaments one series at Foxwoods.
The big deal was over the reasoning for their being booted.
Many believed that when authorities entered the suite, the group had at the resort, a huge stash of tournament chips were found lying around. Men had already run into a few problems on the tournament circuit, since he basically had his own crew of players who he'd enter into all the events. These guys were all (and now a few at least are known on their own names alone) pretty good and when a few got together come late, there was always the questions about dumping and softplaying each other and more specifically, edges aiding Mens chip count in any way.
Anyways, as time passed Men was back playing tourneys at the next stop back in California, so the tournament chips in the room theory must've been falsified.
The story Men gives after the fact and to this day is that they were booted from the premises because they had illegally ripped out a smoke alarm from the room to cook up the crazy good shit they make taste so well.
