It seems like Antanas "Tony G" Gouga has no plans whatsoever to take it easy after the London 2012 Olympics, where he was the manager for the Lithuanian basketballl team, as he already has several new projects in the pipeline and some already up and running. However, the most interesting "project" must be the staking of Daniel "Jungleman12" Cates (live and online).

Posted by noonlion: Not like Tong G to make outlandish claims to try and gain himself some publicity.
How the hell he landed that basketball role I'll never know - he's not a pro.
He seems like a turd of a character, maybe entertaining for TV but not a pleasant dude from what I hear.
"Tony G is currently a major sponsor of the Lithuanian Basketball Federation. When the country's national team failed to directly qualify for the 2010 FIBA World Championship in Turkey and had to apply for a wild-card entry, he paid a large share of the required application fee of €500,000. The team was chosen for the tournament, and won the bronze medal with TONYBET on their jersey"

I always thought he was an Australian for some funny reason. He's got sort of a Dutch/Aussie accent,....but I guess it's Lithuanian....
Personally,....I don't care for the guy's manner at the tables,...
...BUT, it IS pretty generous of him to help out the basketball team... He didn't have to do that,...but when they were in the crunch...he came to the rescue...!!!
Nothing FUNNIER than watching him and Hellmuth bicker and argue....lol...
