never knew Stu, didn't even know how to play poker when he was alive but I've read alot about the man and talked to several pros who played with him and several dealers who dealt to him. Without a doubt, he was a card genius, not just poker. Alot of the "greats" of our time met their demise to drugs...Elvis, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin to name a few...it was a didn't age, a different era than the world we live in today. It is obvious from everyone who new him that he loved his daughter, Stephanie very much....and knowing the world of Vegas then.....how do we really know he died of a drug overdose that he willing took? hmmmmmm Give them man his due and the respect he so richly deserves...yeah, Hellmuth has 9 bracelets for WSOP events....but not 3 for the main event.....BIG, BIG difference....Stu is a legend.....
