Talk:Dave Ulliott

message: I added a line about another meaning of the term devilfish.  I don't think it needs a seperate page. Masa 08:08, 25 February 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Devilfish

message: On one day he bought into a table for $5,000 and in the space of two hands worked it up to $83,000.
This claim is absurdly ridiculous, and I have removed it.  Though I suppose it is mathematically possible, it is highly improbable.  Plus there is no source cited.  Out it goes, unless someone can provide some proof of it and an explanation as well. SmartGuy 21:16, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: 5k to 83k in two hands? say WHAT?

message: The highly dubious allegations in the "Early Life & Criminal Activities" (giving the police hand relief, being a member of the Crash Test Dummies, being sodomised in a police cell and losing a limb in a fight - don't know which is more embarassing) would suggest that some libelous vandalism has taken place.  Perhaps someone who knows more about the subject than me should make some corrections pronto... Martan 21:16, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Vandalism

message: Sources disagree over Ulliott's date of birth, both the date/month and the year:
*This source says "April 1"
* these three sources , ,  say "January 4 1954"
*apparently Swimming with the Devilfish (Wilson, Des (2006), Macmillan, ) lists his year of birth as 1962 (I don't have access to this source so I can't confirm that)
I think the "April 1"/"January 4" discrepancy is probably the old American vs British date format thing. DH85868993 14:57, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Daveulliott4.jpg

message: Calling something "a bit stupid"  falls under original research as it your opinion which isn't encyclopedic, there are many actions that we might view to be stupid personally however our opinions should not and must not be included , be it a Poker Player, an actor or a President. as far as the article,if you read the source it states that this was something said by a golfing partner named Williamson comparing his skills as a poker player to that of a pro golfer not his nationality, people of different nations race or sex may be compared in their field a written article to someone else in a different field without respect to nation but that their skills. ▪◦▪≡SiREX≡Talk 23:20, 7 February 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Ernie Els comparison from inside poker 

message: Most of his "exploits" are quoted from his biography which is anything by scientific or credible. Also lots of details about his poker career are of little relevance and, for professional poker players, not actually very notable. They all sound like "wow he's so good he made X money" or "wow he's so good he knew how to fold a good hand when he's beat" and so on. --86.17.70.26 (talk) 15:38, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: Page Reads Like a Brag

message: The article says he had seven children, but his obituary in The Times says eight, including one by his third wife whom he married in 2011. - Arwel Parry (talk) 08:10, 8 April 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  Number of children.
