The final word on Vig: the truth
 
Here is the final word on Vig. this is coming from a source I cannot name but just trust me that what I am about to say is 100% true. I can't tell you anymore about the source or where this information came from, so don't bother asking.

As of a few days ago, some facts:

-Vig has no money in any of his accounts
-he has redeposited since the donations began
-he has made no withdrawals

Vig's account was not frozen. The account he opened for donations was closed and the money was transfered over to his personal account. The money is now gone. The logical conclusion is that it was gambled away, as other evidence has also illustrated.

I reiterate that Vig has made no withdrawals, and additional deposits since the donations began. As of a few days ago, he had no money in his accounts.

So what we do know, is that Vig lied about his account being frozen and lied about there still being money in the account, and lied that he withdrew any part of the money.

What is not necessarily true, but what I can deduce from this information is that he got in a fight with his girlfriend, who I am convinced is real, and now the money BBV has raised for her cancer treatment is gone forever.

I apologize to those involved in what was a huge error in judgment on my part. I took a chance in allowing Vig to post his story based on the proof his wife had cancer and it turns out I was wrong to do so.

There will be no more future Vigs in BBV.

Lesson learned: be careful when opening up your pocketbook to people you barely know on the internet. If you do plan on doing so in the future, make sure it is through a reputable organization.

I hope so. The fact that she would learn this from an internet message board is depressing.

the part where the poker board donated 10K to the degenerate gambler, only to see the gambler blow 10K on poker, *is* kinda full of irony/karma

so who's the source.

Re: The final word on Vig: the truth
 
wow.

I guess the first question, is the cancer real or was that a made up story?

If it is real, then VIG sucks. What a degenerate.

Wrong. This is why you shouldn't give money to anonymous (degenerate) people on a public forum.
Edit to say sorry for Mrs Vig and Baby Vig, they are the true victims in all of this.

I can do a prop bet on it being real, tbh. which makes this worse, not better, and is the main reason why I'm about to go waste a bunch of time taking internet detective [censored] IRL

People have gambling problems. He probably tried to use it for his bank roll and lost some of it. So when he lost some he had to play to get it back.... BUSTO!

Maybe not important but is vig actually gooad at poker and just played really high with the money? Or does he suck and is a lifetime loser.
