2mo agoI know nothing about how bankruptcy works, but man I hope there is a possibility that a judge can deny it. The below just blows my mind
"According to the filing, Hawkins lists his rented residence as Wellington, Florida, and that his debts primarily consist of consumer debts. When asked how much his estimated assets are worth, Hawkins ticked the box indicating between $500,0001-$1,000,000. As for how much he estimated his liabilities to be, he ticked between $100,001-$500,000."
If you have assets between 500k-1 Mill, but owe 1-500k, your bankruptcy should be denied. This is insane.
I hope creditors or Garcia, the guy he owes money to, can file some kind of petition or brief or whatever. Hawkins not too bright, another quote from the article from his twitter:
“I win every trip I go on, check my hendon. I have more disposable income, than your regular income. I live rent free in your mind," Hawkins wrote. He aslo added, "All, I have to say is ‘Happy New Year.’ This will Be my Biggest year. It’s nothing your words, posts and ill intent against me. Can do about it.”
Hope the judge is made aware of these tweets....

2mo agoFirst problem is he claims he has more in assets than liabilities.
Second problem is that he did this the day after a garnishment. No reasonable person would call that a mere coincidence
Third problem is that he gave an interview to PokerNews.
Fourth problem is that he kept playing tournaments the next day.
His fifth problem will be lawyers: the one he’s going to have to hire is going to cost him plenty, and the ones who will absolutely oppose this bankruptcy are going to shred him when they get to question him.
His balls are way bigger than his brain, that’s for sure....
