“I spent the summer living at the Taj Majal Hotel and Casino, and in the spring of 1994 I decided to set up shop there. I bought a nice house in the Atlantic City area and kept it as my personal haven – a place that could be a permanent home for myself all my many books, and transformational tapes. A sanctuary where I could relax and enjoy my life and pursue my passion for healthy vegetarian cooking.”

If Tom Dwan is looking to make any more vegetarian prop bets soon, he’ll have to pick another poker player besides Prahlad Friedman.

According to Poker News Daily, Friedman is a devout follower of the Hindu religion, as well as a vegan, joining the likes of poker players who don’t consume meat or dairy like Daniel Negreanu.

Friedman’s total live tournament earnings exceed $2 million.

Now he and Daniel should make a bet on who’s homemade vegan cookies will be consumed the most by players during the next tournament.
