    This guy had better hope Bovada doesn't go down

    He sat with 200k, typed "rick ross in the house, the motherfuckin boss", and left without playing a hand.

    Obvious money flash. Probably got it in a tourney.

    I've never seen that kind of money on the table in a Bovada cash game.

    Most money I've ever had on there at once was 56k, and I was withdrawing as fast as I could.

    Sorry for showing off Todd, I know it was immature and unnecessary.

    Don't think this story was posted here. I learned about it on 4:

    Dude wins $1million Spin-n-Go, sits down at a $0.02 / $0.04 Micro Game at PokerStars:

    The guy with 1/5th that on Bovada is taking 100x the risk tho.

    I remember multiple experiences playing at low limit tables when somebody drops in with a ridiculous stack.

    They do it just feel the love & envy from da po folk. They chat it up.

    They'll ask, "who needs money"'? "Just raise, I'll fold"

    Inevitably everyone is suspicious and keeps playing ABC. Lol.

    Had guys dump me chips in those situations then they vanish.

    A few months ago I was playing cards and the guy next to me was spending some time on bovada on his phone. So i would sneak peaks of what he was up to. He had over 200k on there and was betting around 2k a game on MLB from what I saw on his reports.
    I was shocked when I first saw it.

    I can't think of a tournament with that kind if payout on there. It has to be Limitles showing off from his Calvin account.

    I ran up six figures on Bodog in late 2008 when they didn't have any payment processors.

    Not sure if it was the same guy but there was someone on this morning with $20k stacks on a few tables across 10/20 to 30/60.

    Oh yeah sorry if I hit and ran any of you but I think it was just the 30/60 omaha hi/lo I did that in but I can't remember.

    Was it number 5? I always lobby if number 5 is seated. He's tough.

    They found new processors and paid obv.

    Unfortunately that emboldened me to overlook the warning signs at WSEX 6 months later when I ran up high five figures and got stiffed.
