This guy crushed live streams for a million, stole an additional $15m from players then disappeared into the sunset.

He was at the table during the Garrett/Robbi blow up.

I don't remember there being any threads made about this at the time, but it's potentially one of the biggest scams in poker over the last few years?

There were definitely threads. Doug Polk even talked about it in one of his videos.

If this is his MO in games, then he's making the best decision to stay off stream and try to find enough home games to fulfil his poker.

I playfully offer to stake a local (Pro) Player to go on a stream .. he always denies, stating he doesn't want anyone to see how he plays 'every' hand. GL

It’s not stealing if you give random people money at the poker table.

Hahaha yeah, I do that all the time with Japanese names, although in all honesty, it probably sounds more like I'm imitating Mr. Miyagi. I think having four U's makes his name particularly satisfying, too.

So, his name translates: R U Sick I F*k You? And we wonder just how someone like that could be a thief?
