I'm not sure that I'd classify Huck Seed as a vp grinder. Huck is a well known professional poker player, who has won the WSOP title (before it became a the large event today), and a million dollars total on 2 recent televised events. I'm sure he also makes substantial amounts playing in cash games. He may have just played the vp progressive at the Aria on a short time lark. The Aria reportedly hosts the highest stakes poker game in Las Vegas.
Poker players are known to make high stakes bets, sometime when the odds are not favorable. Many are known to make high stake wagers on craps, of all things.
Recently 2 well known poker pros, Tom Dwan and Phil Ivey, made a million dollar wager on whether Ivey could go a year without eating meat. Apparently Ivey didn't go long and Dwan let him out of the bet for $300,000. Incidentally Huck Seed is known for making all kinds of weird bets where the opponent doesn't realize that Huck has a big edge.
