This was one of Chrissy's many tilt videos, where he can't process the frustration of losing, and foolishly cries about it to his followers, despite it being counterproductive to do so.
This is one fascinating aspect of Chrissy, which separates him from other scammers. He sometimes goes off script. He sometimes lets his real life failures seep into his promotional content.
The main reason I don't believe he won $43k at the tables -- or anywhere near it -- is because the video was borne from frustration. As Chrissy himself said, winning $30k in 5 days is great. If those were really his results, the video would have a different tone. It would be along the lines that he wins so much at the tables that he can afford to bet big on sports, and that the sports losses, while frustrating, are no problem. Instead, Chrissy was visibly upset, and trying to rationalize to himself that he's still doing great.
Then of course was the fake money issue, where the two stacks of $100s were different colors (and the off-color one was the bigger stack!)
In reality, Chrissy was probably having an okay trip, as someone already pointed out, and then pressed with those two sportsbets, lost his ass, and then ran to try to "win it back" degen style.
But how did he do in that table session? I'm guessing he was getting stomped on there, as well, then placed a desperation $10k bet (as he said), and maybe got himself back to even. Then he slinked off and did this video, feeling semi-relieved but also very frazzled.
The notable part was him saying, "If I lost that $10k bet, then... (pause)... it would have been a losing session." I think what he meant was that he'd have been broke.
I also think he did mean to post it on the Inner Circle, messed up and posted it publicly, and then just let it stand.
