He won $30 million dollars at cards and lost that much and more. He is the only three-time winner of the World Series of Poker. He died broke and alone in a sleazy porn motel between The Strip and Downtown Las Vegas.

Stuey “The Kid” Ungar was proud of the fact that Mafia bosses came to his Bar Mitzah. The son of a New York bookmaker who died in the arms of one of his many mistresses, he blew his inheritance within a couple of weeks on the ponies.

Stu Ungar may have been the best card player of all time. He would learn a game and master it in record time. At 16 he was the world’s best gin rummy player. He dropped out of high school to play full-time.

Not content to simply win a game, he had to win big. He abused his opponents along the way. Soon no one would play against him.

Purportedly staked by the New York mob, he split for California when he gambled away what he owed them. They followed, told him what he had to do to be free of them, and paid an entry fee into a Vegas Gin Rummy tournament. Stuey won $50,000, paid them off, and stayed in Vegas.

With a photographic memory for cards, he turned to blackjack. If half a deck had been dealt, he could read out which cards were left. He became a “card counter” – and casinos don’t like blackjack card counters – and he was soon barred from playing. He then turned to poker.

After having played poker’s premier game, Texas Hold ‘em, for only a few months, he captured top prize in the 1980 World Series of Poker. He did it again in ‘81. When asked what he would do with the $375,000 prize money, he mumbled, “Lose it.” And he did.

Stuey was a card savant. Small and slight – hence the nickname “The Kid” – he knew cards and almost nothing else. He thought bank accounts were stupid because you couldn’t access your money at midnight if you needed it as he often did. When it was time to buy a house, the realtor met him at the poker table and he slid over the down payment in cash. He would buy Jaguars and Cadillacs, bang them up, and forget to change the oil.

After winning the 1981 World Series he was invited onto the Merv Griffin TV show. He received a $300 check for his first appearance and a second check for $100 when the show was re-run. “This was the only legitimate money I ever earned,” Ungar said.

He would win enormous sums at the poker table, then sprint to the casino sports book and lose it on baseball, football, or horse racing. He was never hesitant to borrow money, as he often did, because he knew (and his debtors knew, too) that he would win it back at poker.

He took to golf. On his first outing he lost $80,000 on the putting green and never made it to the first tee.

He married, had a child (Stefanie), divorced and fell into a downward spiral, fueled by cocaine. But as the candle flickers just before going out, so it was with Stuey.

In 1997, in bad shape, he returned to the World Series of Poker. He wore blue sunglasses low on his nose because a part of it had collapsed from drug abuse. He pulled himself together just long enough to became the only person ever to win the World Series of Poker three times in competition. It is unlikely that this record will ever be broken.

When he was found in the Oasis Motel in Las Vegas, a porn movie was on the TV. He had $800 dollars in his pocket, what was left of a $2000 loan a few days before. His poker buddies took up a collection to pay for his funeral.

One movie, “High Roller,” has been made of his life and another is in the works, based on the book, “One of a Kind,” by Dalla and Alson. His friends, and he had many, are looking forward to a lasting memorial to whom Dalla and Alson call “the world’s greatest poker player.”

Because of the slower, tiered nature of limit hold em, many pots will occur that find half of the online poker table in on a hand, 4 or 5 or more all trying to draw their way into a win. Though most no limit hands are narrowed off by the ability to raise in a way that kills odds, limit hands often develop in that the odds to draw with a strong possibility of improving make it profitable to stay in spots you might not in no limit.

The great thing about limit in multiway pots is that often an online poker opponent is going to stay in longer than average. In spots such as having four to the nut flush on the flop, whereas many times you might flat call and try to hit the hand, raising early on can be even more profitable against many players, as they are going to continue to put their money in, even with hands as weak at gutshots, as the odds make it right or close to right for them to do so.

Therefore, when you do hit, odds are that many of those poker online players will continue to come along too, as the odds on later streets are even more so only giving them the odds to stick around, and you are going to get back in a really big hand.

We have to assume that No. 2 Texas is going to beat Colorado. After all, the two already met earlier this season and Texas won 42-17 as a 15-point favorite. When you look at the stats of the game, it was even worse. Colorado had just 237 total yards and the Longhorns had 145 yards rushing and 337 passing. It’s hard to believe the Buffaloes will play as lifelessly as they did Saturday in a stunning 30-3 home loss to Nebraska. Also, Colorado is 1-4 ATS on the road, and while this is technically a neutral site game, it still is “Deep in the heart of Texas.”

So, that would leave No. 1 USC needing to beat its rival UCLA to secure the national title game. Can the 9-1 Bruins pull the upset? Oddsmakers don’t think so, with USC a 21-point favorite. After all, USC has won 33 games in a row and is 42-1 their last 43. If they are going to stay competitive, it will be with offense, which is the only thing the Bruins have going for them. Let’s give some credit first to the Bruin offense. In 2003, Coach Karl Dorrell’s first season, the Bruins were next to last in the Pac-10 with an average of 295 yards a game and picked up only 2.6 yards per rush. Dorrell implemented the same West Coast offense he learned 15 years as an assistant in the colleges and pros, including three seasons with the Denver Broncos under Mike Shanahan.

Mission accomplished. Just two years later UCLA has quarterback Drew Olson, running back Maurice Drew and tight end Marcedes Lewis averaging 40 points, fifth-best in the nation, and averaging 444 yards, including 149 rushing. Olson leads the nation in pass efficiency with a 172.5 rating, and has 30 touchdown passes with only three interceptions. Pro scouts recently said that Olsen doesn’t even come close talent-wise to USC QB Matt Leinart, and that Leinart will go in the first round while Olsen will be a marginal pro QB, at best. Of course, all that doesn’t matter right now.

Strengthening UCLA’s attack, offensive coordinator and line coach Tom Cable came in two years ago and added power to the running game. By putting together a physical line with more mobility, Cable has helped the Bruins grow into a balanced threat. UCLA has 353 rushing attempts and 333 passes. No doubt the Bruins watched Fresno State roll right through the USC defense two weeks ago for 317 yards, actually leading 42-41 in the fourth quarter as a 23-point dog. USC has allowed over 300 passing yards 3 times this season and over 140 rushing yards in 4 of the last 6 games. In addition, UCLA has had three full weeks to prepare for this game.

While that seems to build a case for UCLA to move the ball on the Trojans, we can’t overlook the miserable job the UCLA defense has done this season. The defense, like the offense, is balanced, allowing over 215 yards rushing AND passing per game! They’ve allowed over 139 yards rushing in EVERY game! Think Reggie Bush will be able to reach that? Probably by the half. No wonder UCLA is 8-2 OVER the total.

The UCLA run defense gave up 315 yards rushing to Arizona, 330 to Cal, and 330 to Washington State. USC has had two weeks to prepare since that 50-42 win over Fresno. The 2005 Trojan offense is one for the ages, outscoring opponents by a 48-21 average with 571 yards of offense (249 yards rushing, 6.3 ypc, 322 yards passing pg). Senior QB Matt Leinart (3,216 yards) and junior RB Reggie Bush (1,398 yds, 8.6 yds per carry, 13 TDs) lead this incredible attack.

So what happened last year? USC won 29-24, its sixth straight win over UCLA. However, a closer look shows that the Trojans had the edge in total yards 477-295. A sophomore named Reggie Bush had 200 rushing yards — on only 15 carries! While the underdog is 24-10-2 against the spread the last 36 years in this City of Angels series, USC is 24-0 SU/17-7 against the spread its last 24 home games. Now that I’ve made a case for both sides, enjoy the game! And if either Texas or USC slips up, enjoy the BCS folk pulling their hair out trying to figure out what to do next.
