Mac "mverstandig" VerStandig Looking to Lay Down the Law in Event #24

Maurice "Mac" VerStandig isn't a poker pro. While he plays recreationally, including in today's event under the screenname "mverstandig," he's actually the managing partner of the VerStandig Law Firm, LLC, which focuses on representing poker players, advantage gamblers, and other industry professionals in all manner of legal situations.

If you recognize VerStandig's name, it's probably because he's been involved in some of the biggest legal poker cases in recent years, including as the Plaintiff's counsel in the recently-dismissed Mike Postle civil case.

Occasionally, VerStandig will also voluntarily contribute legal articles on PokerNews, including popular ones on topics like "A Poker Player's Guide to Divorce," "One Tequila, Two Tequila, Three Tequila, All-In," and "How Gaming Wins and Losses Can Impact Your Tax Obligations," just to name a few.

In the live tournament poker realm, VerStandig has amassed a modest $11,186 in cashes, including four WSOP-related ones totaling $8,466. He is in action today currently sitting a tad below the starting stack.
