Poker Legends: The Stories of Larry Tilley and Josh Arieh
Tom Dwan, known by his online poker handle durrrr, was a frequent opponent of Larry Tilley, known as Cadilac1944, in high-stakes online poker games. Larry Tilley, also known as Action Jackson, was a recreational poker player who enjoyed playing high-stakes games and was known for his aggressive playing style.
Larry Tilley was arrested in 2019 for running an illegal gambling operation and was sentenced to three years in prison and two years of probation.
Josh Arieh, known as 'Velukelepnyy Vu', faced financial difficulties after a poor performance at the 2002 World Series of Poker and had to find ways to rebuild his bankroll.

Argus RivenI've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
