Move over Chrissy, here’s Mikki!
This Mikki guy might deserve his own thread. Check out these videos that I watched yesterday:

I think Chrissy wishes he was Mikki. Another homeless to riches story (he still looks homeless). At least this guy admits to being banned by some casinos.
I first saw Mikki on the Hustler Live stream a couple months back. Phil Ivey was in the game as well. The talk was how he basically came out of no where. It was very apparent he is a horrible poker player. He went all in with 5 high on a 161k pot. He did happen to win that hand but he was massively -EV.
Prior to doing the No Jumper podcast many were curious about him. After the podcast it was very clear he is full of shit with his claims. Especially owning 300 pharmacies and being the founder of many known crypto currencies. There is almost nothing online about this guy. If he had a background like that, something would come up.
The big question is where did he get his money from? Showing casino checks for 8 million. Showing millions of dollars being deposited at the bank. Obviously at least some of the money is real as he can take a quarter million dollar swing at the poker table.
He has a video where he plays dominos with 5 million dollars. The cash looked real. However, if you watched Spencer’s video at the :29 second mark there are stacks of money on the table. To me, this money appears to be about 1.5x LARGER than real currency! Also, they are all very light in color, not a “mixture” of colors you would get with bills that are aged. Brand new bills have a different color to them. Take a look and see what you think.
Obviously this guy is not beating Baccarat long term. If he did he wouldn’t be looking for people to “stake” him. I think it’s possible he may have several hundred thousand, but not 8 figures. There was a MASSIVE amount of fraud with PPP loans. This would fit the timing of him coming on the social media scene about a year ago. Especially if he filed PPP loans on 300 “pharmacies”, they were pretty much giving these loans to who ever applied as they were guaranteed by the Federal Government, and they had virtually no verification. It’s just a theory. I know Druff said on his other forum that he was given some info about Mikki, I am curious to know.

Also, it’s funny how he claims he has up to 10 girls a night in separate rooms at the hotel, just waiting to “smash” as he puts it. What are the chances this guy has 10 chicks just waiting to bone down? Oh yeah, and he says he doesn’t pay them. lol. He reminds me of a cartoon character.
i'm right here mikky boy! Scammy boy LOL
Interesting picture here on FB with Mikki days after Spencer called him out on being a fraud.
https://ibb.co/vhCt2Bp
It’s not a fabricated link “TheRivers”. It’s a direct picture from my Facebook wall. I put it in another format so I could share it on this forum. I also shared a pic of Spencer & I exchanging messages previously regarding doing a video on CM. I was directly able to nudge him as well as a few others to expose him on his successful channel unlike a silly KD channel.
Reminds me of this guy
https://youtu.be/YeEbtiruH2Q
Here is some info on that Dodgers pitcher who appeared in the video, named Kendall Williams:
https://www.dodgers2080.com/dodgers-...-is-one-ptbnl/
He got a $1.5 million signing bonus in 2019, from the Toronto Blue Jays. He was traded to the Dodgers in 2020 for Ross Stripling, and assigned to their single-A Rancho Cucamonga minor league club.
While he had a great first season in the minors (albeit with only 6 appearances), he was mediocre in 2021. He's only 21, so he still has some time to develop. Will he make the Majors? Possibly. But at the moment, that $1.5 million is (was?) the vast majority of his net worth, as minor leaguers make very little as far as salary goes.
I wonder how he got mixed up with Mikki.
This already isn't a good sign:
https://twitter.com/kwilliams2019/st...07844662853636
lets go i care!
I'm hearing "rumors" that his bans were for behavior, not for beating the casinos.
Someone told me that he was banned from Caesars years ago, but they rescinded it when he posted $1 million to play with there, so they figured he was worth the trouble.
I was also told he was banned from Wynn by the COO himself because of bad behavior there.
These rumors aren't verified, but these are the rumblings I've heard.
I hope everyone can find a few dollars to stake our boy Mikki.
I will say he does come across as being very real and is willing to talk to people who doubt him. This is much unlike people like Christopher Mitchell who will simply bash anyone who doubts them or remove negative comments. You’l never see people actually reach out and wanting to talk to their doubters. Mikki did exactly that. Christopher Mitchell has had several offers to discuss who he is and prove himself and has never accepted any of them (nor even responded to them).
I can’t say whether everything about this guy is real or not. But the fact that he’s actually showing his accounts certainly makes strides into showing that perhaps he is real. And if he’s not real he certainly comes across better than any other scammer I’ve ever seen and seems to have plenty of genuine business and market intelligence to go along with what he does.

The main difference between Chrissy & Mikki is money. Mikki has access to a lot in various unknown ways and Chrissy doesn’t. Mikki also seems to be straight and has famous friends.
Mikki is not beating baccarat. He showed Spencer his 2020 MLife win/loss where he crushed it. That was clearly cherry picked. MLife win/loss updates in real time. No reason he couldn’t of shown 2021 up until now or other properties win/loss from 2020. This would be like me showing the Sports App I’m up the most money with and none of the losing ones.
Spencer even says he was told Mikki couldn’t show 2021. Maybe Spencer isn’t much of a gambler and didn’t know that this was a load of shit. I played video poker at the Bellagio a few days ago and the numbers were updated as I was playing. Mikki could of shown a lot more just in his MLife account alone but seems to have chose not to do so.
I can’t say what those other statements or years show. What Spencer was shown proves that Mikki did win a lot of Money at MGM properties last year. But it doesn’t prove much (if anything at all) outside of that.
Also, I want to be clear when I’m saying Mikki “isn’t beating baccarat” that doesn’t means he can’t be up millions playing it. That can happen. It’s all luck, but it can happen. I’m saying he hasn’t figured out a way to beat the game in the mathematical sense. Because outside of some side bet, no one has. So I’m not going out on a limb here.
I am a fan of Spencer. I wish his videos had a little more edge to them, but I understand his main goals are exposing and monetization. So he has to keep things PG-13. He got sold a bill of goods here though imho. Spencer got wined and dined a bit here and also showed a little naivety when it comes to gambling win/loss stuff. We’re all human. He does a great job. But this wasn’t so good.
Spencer performs a great service for the public and makes very good money doing so. I am criticizing him here because he does deserve it. Maybe this was the first time where he was put in this kind of spot. He went way to easy in this video by basically saying to the viewer “you decide”. I know there’s legal stuff he’s dealing with but no need for this puff piece. Let’s be honest, that’s what it was.
Regarding the staking. Mikki has actively advertised this on his Instagram. If people are constantly asking him to do it and it is a drag, why would he then go promote it? That makes 0 sense.
As for the 16 women sliding into his DMs…give me a fucking break. The guy is uploading bricks and bricks of millions of dollars on his Instagram account. He could look like Jabba the Hutt and still be getting those. C’mon man…
To add onto an obvious point that people here probably already know about these types of scammers, is if someone figured out how to legitimately beat a commonly spread game like baccarat they would not be advertising it. They would only share with their closest most trusted network and use it to quietly beat the casinos for millions for as long as they could.
This is absolutely true. I haven’t quite figured out what this guy’s angle is. I know there’s the whole “stake me” element. However he clearly had plenty of money when he started gambling and it would appear won a lot…at least for a while. Has he figured out how to beat the house every day like another scammer we know claims? No…and even he isn’t saying that. But I give this guy at least one thing…he’s actually a likable guy. Granted that does not make you legit but I’ll take that over fake and obnoxious any day of the week. He also seems to have intelligence l, which certain other scammers have little of.
Now that Spencer drank the kool aid like a groupie we can start staking mikki. LGF
Mikki puts on a great show. I hope he doesn’t stop sharing his living my best “lie”/life.
Entertain me clown!!!
If you can’t figure out Mikki’s angle, you don’t understand social media. Which is nothing to be ashamed of.
Mikki has reach LFG
Our new degen hero is with ..
Ivey , Lil baby , Ryan fast hands and the YT guy Paul something.
Many rappers appear on Mikki page. Very entertaining.
Mikki probably doing the old Justin Wade Smith "trust me I have neck tattoos: Give me $10k today and you'll get $100k next week" deal.
I know people who own pharmacies in nyc and Mikki is full of it.
He sounds goofy. Unless he finds people fresh out of school and he is the money behind the license that’s the best I’ll give him.
And the opening shots have been fired!
https://youtu.be/bQlRASztZjY
Maybe Mikki heard Chrissy’s thoughts on descendants of Hebrew folks???
Obviously Mikki is not beating the game of Baccarat long term...
I have a theory about his “300 Pharmacies”...
When Spencer questions Mikki on it, Mikki says there are about “12 different types of pharmacies”... It’s clarified that Mikki is not talking about large traditions type pharmacies where we take our prescriptions and get our meds. So it’s not like a CVS, Riteaid, or mom and pop pharmacy. It’s Totally different. Mikki then brings up “Compound Pharmacies” but not specifically saying this is the type of pharmacy that he had. As soon as he said “Compound Pharmacy” it all made sense. I read an article a few years back about these Compound pharmacies and how some of them skate the law to legally sell drugs. I’m still searching for that article, they laid it out very well. A Compound Pharmacist can make “custom” medications. They can also duplicate patented medications that are commercially available when there is a national shortage.
It wouldn’t surprise me if he paid 15k to get licensed for the first pharmacy, hired 1 pharmacists. Then meet the absolute minimum requirements to be in business, which under the law may not even include a physical business location. The license may be just on paper without a physical location. Then duplicate that process 299 times. In reality he could be working out of a 200 sf office, with a safe, desk, compounding precursors, and employing 1 pharmacist all while being licensed “On paper” for 300 units (It May be a little more work than this, but you get the idea).
My guess is he found a method that skates the law, likely dispensing pain pills and then just duplicate that process 299 more times through his other pharmacies to legally dispense an insane volume of pain pills or other meds in demand. The additional pharmacies are probably just on paper. His timing lined up with the opiate epidemic and the extreme demand for pain pills. No prescription needed. It’s got to be something close to this.
Most chemist can produce drugs such as Oxycodone, Hydrocodone, Fentenyl. It’s really not a secret how they are made. As a compound pharmacist all you have to do is change the chemical makeup slightly in order to dispense. I think the public would be outraged if they knew what a compound pharmacist could legally do. Read up on Compound Pharmacies, I think you will agree.
This kinda reminds me of Pain Clinics in Florida around 2010, where your average Joe was opening pain clinics just to dispense opiates (Primarly Oxycodone). They would hire Doctors fresh out of school or doctors with disciplinary action on their license since they couldn’t get employment elsewhere. They got the name “Pill Mills”. Some of these places would see over 1,000 people per day. Cash only.
Our hero is in full force
I am going to reach out to Mikki and see if he wants to come on Poker Fraud Alert Radio.
If anything, it will at least be entertaining. If he agrees, I will come up with a list of questions for him beforehand, and in fact you guys can contribute to that.
I won't be confrontational, because I want to treat all guests respectfully, as they are voluntarily coming on. However, it won't be a softball interview, and I will have good questions prepared. It's possible he will ignore me or decline, but I'll give it a shot. The guy seems pretty accessible.
What are the chances Mikki is MDAWG from WOV?
They both have the same story of beating bacarrat long term.
Both names start with "M".
Both travel from Vegas to S. Cal.
Both came from affluent families.
With all due respect I have to disagree. Mikki went all In with 5 high on a 170k pot. By pure luck an Ace hit the board to throw his opponet off. The Ace hits the board 1 in 13 times. I believe Any other card and Mikki would have lost that hand, since his opponet likely calls in that spot. You play out that hand 100 times and I bet Mikki looses at least 80 out of 100.
I gotta admit, attending a Mikki NYE "banger" actually sounds like fun.
Or at least it would be fun if I were 20 years younger.
Speaking of which, Mikki actually is about 20 years younger than me. He's 30. Just in case anyone is curious.
I believe Mikki’s top 2 goals (besides “Smashing”) are:
1. Expand his social media reach.
2. Find suckers to stake him.
.... And Spencer just put him in the driver seat to do both of these.
Today’s video has 154k views in the first 14 hours. This may video may break Spencer’s record for most number of views in a 24 hr period. By comparison Chrissy’s video has been up for 4 weeks and currently has 139K views. At the 24 hour mark Mikki’s video is on pace for 200k views!
Spencer unintentionally gave Mikki instant credibility in many peoples minds. I’m sure he’s going to get feedback from people and will come to regret this.
Since Spencer has a great reputation and can usually stiff out a fraud/scammer many folks will think Mikki is the real deal and give him money. I actually think Mikki is a very likable guy.
I know Spencer would never do a “paid advertisement piece”, but if I had to put a price tag on this - I would say it’s worth $200k-$400k for Mikki. Mikki got a guy to “Back his winning claims”. I know there is no way Spencer took any money to make this video, but no question Mikki would have shelled out $200k to do so. Seeing the amount of views this video is getting, I have a strong feeling Mikki is going to work his charm on Spence and Spencer will be influenced more by Mikki’s likability vs. his -EV gambling strategies.
Kind of a side note: Baccarat is one of the table games where it is not terribly uncommon to stay up on the house for an extended period of time. Mainly due to its low house edge and all bets paying out equal amounts, compared to a game like blackjack where you have double downs, splits, BJ’s at 3:2 or 6:5.
With Baccarat the house is only winning 1 more hand than you per hundred hands. You 49. Casino 51. (Ignoring pushes) Now out of 1,000 hands, if you can turn 10 pushes into wins you are now playing a break even game. If you can turn 5 losses into wins you are playing a break even game. (You get your original wager plus amount won with losses to a win. A push to a win - You already have your initial bet).
For example 49 wins and 51 losses. Let’s use $1 per hand to make the math simple...
$49 won and $51 lost (2 units between bets)
Let’s now assume you change just 1 single hand from a loss to a win. It now looks like:
$50 won and $50 lost (by changing one single loss into a win, when there were previously 2 units between wins and losses, a loss changed over to a win makes it even) It’s the same theory if you are betting $100 per hand in Blackjack and you win but the dealer takes your money. They go back and check the cameras and determine you actually did win. They now owe you $200 (Original wager + winnings).
Let’s say after 1,000 hands a player is down: 495 wins to 505 loses (Ignoring ties). If just 5 of the loses are turned to wins, the player is now even. If 6 loses are turned to wins the player is now up. As you can see it’s a very few amount of hands in the game of Bacarrat that creates the house edge. So over a small sample size, it’s not terribly uncommon to be up. It’s very possible Mikki has ran well in 2020 at MLIFE Properties, which is the amount that Spencer saw.
:applause
There is something that is pretty strange in Spencer’s pinned comment. When he says that the number Mikki presented on the casino statement showed a large profit and that you “can believe him or not”…well I don’t think any reasonable critique of Spencer’s video accused him of lying about the number he saw. The point was that the number didn’t prove anything except for the fact that Mikki won big on those properties in 2020.
I didn’t see many (if any) comments calling Spencer a liar. Maybe there is nothing to it and Spencer just felt attacked. But I did find it interesting he presented the criticism differently from what I saw.
If I was Spence, I would take both videos down at this point.
He has already made a ton of money on both. Which, I know he values his reputation much more than the money.
After I took the videos down, I would contact Mikki, and tell him that you really need more info to make a determination to his credibility.
You need firm evidence. That the two of you will personally go to Vegas casinos and pull up his players accounts. This way, the info can’t be faked or cherry picked.
His other claims can be proven with similar, more in-depth methods.
There is a pscyhological aspect to meeting someone in person compared to talking to them online.
If you meet a guy in person, and he seems incredibly nice, laid back, and non-confrontational, it's hard to keep up the zeal to expose them, especially if the person never did anything to you. I have no doubt that Mikki treated Spencer really well, and by the end, Spencer had a hard time making a follow-up video in his usual sarcastic style. Instead, he wanted to believe the guy.
The other problem with having a channel like Spencer's and then bashing someone after meeting with them is that you lose the ability to get others to do the same in the future. Had he spent the day with Mikki and did a piece continuing to imply he's a fraud, other subjects of his videos would refuse to meet with him in the future. After the big "get" of actually meeting up with someone he talked about previously, he probably felt some subconscious pressure not to make Mikki reegret spending time with him.
This isn't a bsah on Spencer, btw. I go through the same thing when I have guests on PFA Radio, of whom I'm critical. i realize they don't have to be here, so I try not to make them feel like they're being interrogated or doubted. At the same time, I don't want to do a softball or allow them to use my show to establish false credibility, so what I generally do is write up some tough-but-fair questions, ask them, and then let them respond. I usually leave it to the listener to make conclusions at that point.
In short, I think meeting with Mikki, while great for his channel, put Spence in a bad spot he didn't anticipate.
I'll touch on this on the next radio show, but I also want to say that Mikki absolutely has some experience in the pharmacy industry. As he said, it's not traditional retail pharmacies, but more on the fringes. But he clearly knew a lot about it, and rattled off a lot of details without stopping to think (incluidng at one point giving an industry acronym). Not sure how much money he made with all that, and where the truth lies with his ownership of these licenses he talks about, but 100% he had some kind of connection to that industry previously.
