Seems silly why would would out him before attempting to resolve the issue with him yourself. There goes his coaching career...

Believe me, I was trying to resolve it. I've sent him several warnings on Skype (they were either ignored/didn't go through)

Seems like a red flag when your coach wants you to stake them.

obv to keep playing to show graphs to original staker, aaand other staker.

its kind of like making debt to pay of debt, just without the paying back

no doubt this is a scam, by the looks of it.

he gets two stakes, possibly multiple stakes, always keeps his balance below 4k (cashout overs obv), tell his multiple stakers he is under 4k (with obv screenshot is proof), keeps playing/forge graphs, and profit. gg.

if he can get around and get 5 stakes, that's 20k, would be a pretty nice scam to do for a SSPLO grinder.
was probably worth the attempt for it and he did, and made a stupid mistake and got caught.

you deserve it scum

I will reserve judgement, but this does seem kinda suspect.

The fact that he hasn't explained himself should be a red flag. Usually people get all defensive about stuff if they've done nothing wrong.

i didnt get a stake from anyone else. i had tons of money and had to withdraw the majority of it, and asked vitali for a stake.

i asked for a stake from others because i was embrassed the stake went so bad (38 buyins below ev) and wanted to make the money back to pay vitali without having to confide in my failure.

all of which i know is wrong, and ive accounted for

people make mistakes, im going to try and correct mine and learn by it
