How does this guy have any money in his bankroll? He is horrible at both cash and tourneys. I'm guessing he won like some world poker tour thing?

He's from a large emerging country which has experienced a prolonged period of strong economic growth, and which is currently underrepresented in the poker show-business. This means he's a highly marketable 'ambassador' for PokerStars.
Meaning that your granny would have a good shot at a sponsorship deal if she was Brazilian. |

Does Pokerstars fund him though? I find it pretty unlikely he is a winning player. When I booked about 500 hands him at 5/10nl he was playing 33/13. Any disussion I've seen about him in MSNL is about how bad he is.

I heard he came from a poor family and worked his roll up from pennies into hundreds of thousands. But I don't know much about how he plays or how much pokerstars pays him. Were you the person at our 100 rebuy asking him the same question from OP?

I guess I'm a little bitter cause he has gotten lucky versus me making some strange plays. |

Mostly built my roll from grinding going back to $10 sit and gos. It's hard to believe he built up his roll naturally (i.e. no huge tournament win). |

Quoted for amusement from PokerStars' blog article when Akkari joined their crew:
Over the past several years, Akkari's aggressive poker play has turned him into a successful and well-recognized player in his home country and on the international tournament circuit. The write-up also asserts that he has accrued some $600k in donkament winnings. |
