hi dikshit[views:1948][posts:3]___________________________________ [Dec 31,2008 1:24pm - dreadkill ""] saw this on yahoo's homepage in an article about billionaires who lost money in 2008: Anurag Dikshit March net worth: $1.6 billion Current net worth: $1 billion Dikshit designed the software for PartyGaming's successful PartyPoker game, which allowed live gambling over the Web. He left the company and sold a chunk of shares in 2006, the year the U.S. government banned gaming. He recently pleaded guilty to violating U.S. gaming laws and agreed to forfeit $300 million. He could face up to two years in jail but apparently won't be sentenced until 2010. He has already paid $100 million of his fine and will pay the rest in two installments next year. |
