Phil Mickelson laundered money through a stockbroker to pay his gambling debts but wound up escaping prosecution, according to a highly-anticipated book by renowned gambler Billy Walters.Walters wrote in 'Gambler: Secrets from a Life at Risk,' that Mickelson turned to stockbroker Gregory Silveira to assist with the transfer. 'Mickelson wanted to transfer several million dollars to Silveira and then have Silveira wire it from his personal bank account to the offshore book to pay off Phil's gambling losses. Unfortunately for Silveira, he said yes. The wire transfer quickly caught the attention of the criminal division of the IRS,' Walters wrote.
