Spiderman's a Shark?

Looks like a series of high-stakes underground A-list celebrity cash games has been unearthed.  And guess who's getting sued for winning?  Spiderman's Tobey Maguire.

From what I've read, the game's sharks were Tobey Maguire and Ben Affleck.  Donks apparently included Matt Damon and Leonardo DiCaprio.  High Stakes Poker announcer Gabe Kaplan was a regular, as was poker pro Dan Bilzarian, who's also being sued.  Bilzarian had some choice words here for Brad Ruderman, who was sentenced to 10 years in prison last year for operating a wire fraud and investment adviser fraud scheme that lost investors $25 million.  $5.2 million of those dollars were lost on the underground celeb games and duped investors are suing to get that money back.  Good luck with that.
