    The D-A-CH-DeathList 2025 (page 25)

    Former boss of Deutsche Bank, Hilmar Kopper, dead after a "quick and heavy illness": https://www.spiegel.de/wirtschaft/deutsche-bank-ex-chef-hilmar-kopper-ist-verstorben-a-38632f71-eb1c-404c-af8b-a240bdd7401b Dead at 86, led the bank 1989-1997 and started to branch out into investment banking before it became Deutsche Bank's big legal liability. Later, he played a big role in the failed merger of Daimler and Chrysler.

    The Deathlist Poker Tournament 2021

    Cpt Chorizo has some nice bonus opportunities, for example, if one of his 10s dies, he gets three straights at once, or now in fact maybe more with those three queens?. Unless I hit one of these full houses, he has a good chance of winning on bonusses. But yeah, if I get one full house, it's like 500 bonus points. Edit: Larry Pressler, who I think will more likely than not still become a hit, will be "fun" to calculate.

    Reason of death, zip-lining accident? https://getindianews.com/is-richard-lowtax-kyanka-dead-or-alive-social-media-death-hoax-explained/ In his case, the internet cannot be fully trusted, though. He was battling "fetal alcohol syndrome" - which might explain some of his health troubles.

    Ideas and possibilities 2022

    Yeah, pretty much, I guess. Here are their WSOP websites: https://www.wsop.com/players/profile/?playerid=65091 https://www.wsop.com/players/profile/?playerid=112037 Honestly, both didn't do very well, but the Ireland one had significant earnings outside of the WSOP. And online.

    I have to make a correction, file this under....oops... Michael Graydon, the Irish poker player, is not the Michael Graydon, poker player with terminal brain cancer.... Sorry! I think this is a bit of a disqualification for most pools.

    Nobel Prize In Death

    Malala Yousafzai, the girl who got the Nobel Peace Prize for fighting for girls' rights to go to school in Afghanistan has married. And I can't believe she survived both the Taliban and Birmingham.

    Political Frailty

    A much needed update on Michael Caputo. no not dead. He "retired from politics" in August, because it "almost killed him", he believed, quite literally. However, it looks like his retirement is over with a new email he sent: https://politicalwire.com/2021/11/09/maybe-it-was-just-a-temporary-break-from-politics/
