"I'm going to piss away these chips and your money and I'm looking forward to the opportunity of doing it."

What a free roll that was! Dunst ended up getting 2nd in the Aussie Millions Main Event for $452,729! Who was the famous poker player who ended up making almost $385,000? Why was Tony Dunst banned from Australia?
