Actually they didn't. Against Beal they had to come up with real money to play him. Against Guy they had unlimited borrowed money. Meaning several players never put a dime of their money in. Just borrowed until they won.
Put it this way:
You and I play HU at my home game.
You put real money on the table, and I give you chips.
I don't bring any money, but take out enough chips to match your stack. I also invite a bunch of skilled friends to the game. They don't bring cash either, I just give them chips.
You beat a few of us. We just take out more chips.
We keep doing this until you eventually lose all your chips.
