Default Re: Worst acts of banroll management you have ever seen....

About ten years ago, Binions Horseshoe in Vegas had a tournament series called Hall of Fame or something like that. A very young player about 21 or so won one of the Omaha events for like $19K or so, which was a decent tourney win at the time. This was before the internet and television boom, so a young player winning a tournament was sort of a big deal. BTW, this guy was perpetually broke and looking to get staked so $19K was huge for him. So after winning the tournament he goes down the street to one of the pawn shops and gets himself a Rolex. He then goes back to Binions and sits down playing $100 a hand BJ. By morning he had to sell the Rolex back and completely busto.
