You have to be getting over 100% rakeback for that to be true. Not the situation for most "rakeback pros". It seems a silly distinction to make anyway as rake affects every player so not really sure why you're making it an issue.

Face it people, hes not broke, dont be dumb. One thing is delaying wrongfully his challenge with jungle because of knowing not having an edge, has better spots in macau, probably short on cash.

But dont be dumb enough to think he would ever be broke, hes got a million backers for life. I mean, i would stake him my entire roll with out a thought. IDIOTS and haters.

He would gladly take it, so why not go ahead with it?

So did you see him playing or not? Someone was motivated enough to create a new account to make sure it's known that you're lying.

And what do you make of the fact that the account was almost a year old before this first posting?

didn't notice that but it seems like Dwan probably wasn't playing at the Aria lol and that poster is either Dwan himself or a strange fan boy (probably that)

If he is not broke yet, he will go broke eventually. They all go broke in the end.

Is this serious? I'm really not sure. Do you mean by dying? Or are you seriously implying WCGrider, Cates, and a host of other successful, hard working players will eventually be broke, too? If so, why and how?

Kind of pointless to speculate this much without any real inside information.
Tom probably is way less rich than he was a couple of years ago, but he's still playing big games.

Maybe it doesn't matter a lot if he's broke, because there are many guys who'd stake him for big live games.

The only real indicator is that he refuses to finish the Jungleman challenge, which is probably because of the money he's set to lose.
Did the money not get escrowed before the bet?

Are you raging because you can't conceive your idol is either broke or a scammer (since he won't finish the challenge against Jungleman's) ?
So he can't pay (broke) or don't want to pay (scammer).
