Even the best Vp players dont have 5 million dollar bankrolls they can piss away. Bob Dancer admitted not having the bankroll for his wife's $100 Vp hit. They took a potshot at it.

Aria had backed off quite a few high-rollers and took away the player's club account of some others after a promo that gave .77% back in freeplay (and about another .073% in holiday gift point freeplay) with the added equity of a pretty substantial drawing city-wide. Not bad considering you could play 9/6 jacks for up to $1250 a hand if you wanted.

Huck Seed is in and out of money. There were rumors that he owed a great deal of money from being staked in poker. He played nosebleed stakes online before Black Friday. He also plays in high stakes cash games. At the levels he gambles at this money is irrelevant. He could be playing high stakes NL or Pot Limit Omaha and this money could be gone over a number of weeks. Huck is a winning poker player. He won the WSOP main event in 1996 for $1 million. He might have been only playing for 50% or less. His lifetime winnings in poker tournaments is over $5 million. Huck has some bad habits. I won't discuss them here. You can Google yourself and find out. Some stories might be true and some not. Like most high stakes gamblers his lifestyle doesn't change. They push the edge. If he owes money he gets staked. The money these guys win is just a way of keeping score. Losing poker players don't get staked for very long. You usually see them on the rail borrowing money or asking someone to treat them to a meal. To most people taking $50,000 shots trying to hit that Royal and losing it would be devestating. Huck might have been playing with his "case"
$50K. It wouldn't matter to him if he lost it. He will always be in action.
