Transfers between the big names

Anyone watching the pros online has seen all the transfers and borrowing between players. The question I have is why? The thought of Ivey being busto would be pretty funny, however completley false. OBV these guys cant put 200K on a credit card every time they go broke, but could they be getting a per diem from Full Tilt? Or are they just terrible with money management?

I love Ivey's quote the other night when he got felted heads up. Something along the line of "Do I know you? If so can you transfer me some money?" I tried this at my SNG last night and nobody seemed very willing.

It is hard to get alot of money online, that's why

initally fulltilt provides them a bankroll to play with. the money belongs to ft, and the players can take out money when they win, and must repay losses.

and all the big name players go up and down. but if phil need to hand you several million in cash tonight he could, don't believe everything you read.

I loved when Ivey said "good luck collecting" when someone transferred him money. lol

I was watching Mcevoy play HU $200 on PS one time and he was saying that it was his last $200 from his own money, and when he was asked if PS would give him some he said that PS only send him money to play events that they set.

But I'm sure if he was to ask Lee for a little loan he'd get it.
