I'm not sure what massiveness you're referring to but he was at the very least
involved in account sharing which he abused to e.g. take tens of thousands from some single person
and then delivered one of the biggest needles in poker history: Admitted to it but offered the person he took $40k from only poker lessons as compensation.

Cates is a scumbag but luckily for himself he's good at poker so he'll still have fanboys.

Jungle might have been hustled playing 6 Plus Holdem. The Chinese billionaires are known to play this variant of NLHE.

Or maybe Jungle was really clever.
Sell half your action.
Don't play.
Tweet $5M loss.
Don't bluff the taxman, pay the tax on your $2.5M profit.

Jungle is weird enough that I'm skeptical of anything he says.

Durrrr actually looks healthy in this interview, guess he started to take care of himself considering the last few pictures of him in the net
