I remember him staking a bunch of people like 50 every Sunday $11 each or whatever for the 250k tourney. Liked his podcasts too he had going with those two other guys, entertaining to listen to.

Between this and Cornell Fiji, it's amazing how much integrity and reputation people will throw away for a few thousand dollars.

I don't think he'd be playing any WSOP anytime soon. I feel sorry for the guy. Why would you deprive yourself from playing live events just for 10k. The guy was talented and if I remember correctly he beat Mardy Fish in tennis at one point in his career. He did actually help a lot of players build up a bankroll by giving them a place to live and showing them how to grind the right way. Nick if I were you I would make a Youtube video just like Brad Booth to apologize to the poker community and return the money as soon as I could. People have a short memory, pay them back and you will be able to play live events in 2 3 years from now. How long are you gonna hide in Vancouver grinding online? There is more to life than just beating MTTs, give the ****ing money back and live without any guilt.

On June 26th, Nick Rainey offered WSOP Main Event shares for sale in the 2+2 marketplace. It sold out in a day.

He updated his Twitter that he busted the tournament after a "brutal day."

Then this happened:



Nick never played the Main Event.

He stole the investor's money, bailed to Canada and ignores all requests for repayment.

I seen him yesterday at the Mall sitting down in starbucks with some fat asian girl :s

Wow, I am late to this threat. Amazing work. Has Admo set any "conditions" for taking down the site. Have there been any "negotiations" on this topic?

Our Nick Rainey is 32 years old.

Guy killed according to the article is 30, so I guess its safe to say not the same person.

This guy went totally off the grid though!

Odds he's buried in a hole in middle of desert?
