 When Phil Laak, 37, and his friends (Antonio Esfandiari and Brian Rast just to mention 2) rented a few quad bikes and decided to race against each other, it was supposed to be a fun and thrilling experience. But it ended up being one of Phil Laak's worst nightmares after that he crashed with his quad bike and ended up at the hospital with 7 broken legs and other injuries.
"We were jumping over a sand dune, but there was a slope hidden behind it. It could have happened to anyone, seriously. Phil tried to jump off his quad bike in the air, but instead he landed straight on it. His elbow got crushed and his wrist was broken. One of his eyes also got badly injured. It was very, very close that he could have ended up blind on that eye." said Antonio Esfandiari to a poker magazine.
Phil Laak has also commented on the accident on his twitter. For example, one can read the following...
"The stitches came out today! 34 in all. It was not fun"
"Jennifer is the best. Cuddling w her is better for the pain then even my perkocet pain medicine"
Let's hope that Phil Laak gets well soon and that he gets the best possible comeback at the poker tables when he's fully recovered.

I bet he yelled: "I'm all in!!!!" as he flew through the air. At least, that is what I am going to do if I ever get into such a predicament.
Or, that was my comment when I came to my wifes oldest friends (also plays poker) midsummernightsparty so drunk I had to immideatly go to sleep: "Sorry. I'm already all in..." |

Well from here I send you a greeting and strength to recover soon,
that although it seems that it is not always serious accident takes his recovery
process either more or less hard, and good from here wish him a speedy recovery,
so he could watch as soon as possible poker tables, greetings.

This wouldn't be a very fun forum if everyone had your attitude now would it? I don't think Phil gets any worse if we crack a few jokes, and probably not any better. I don't even think he minds. |

| yeah 7 broken legs is funny but i hope for him he got a good recover and he lost not his eye thats reallly hard.To drive with a quad bike is great i love it but dangerous for beginners when he drive outside from the streets u must can control the machine think he got not the experince to drive the bike |
| DaineMudda | 9/19/2010 3:09:51 AM GMT |
He'll probably make jokes about it at the table's as soon as he is better
Hope he get's better Phil ist just so much fun to watch playing and talking |
