Yeah he seems like a tool - definitely a small penis thing going on here. Jesus, I was stupid at his age, but I still would have put 200k into investments instead of bling.

IMHO, the mother is just as responsible for behavior as the kid. There are certain things you just don't let your kids do (like drop out of HS to player poker).

I think he plays STT and MTT and the news crew does not understand what $300 is in a tourney.

well, based on that obviously sustainable winrate, he is making
360k/hr
$2,880,000 / day
$67M a month ('working' 5 days a week)
$760M a year.

No wonder he feels like every day is christmas.

Soss, the pot was worth $300. So it's quite likely part of that was his money. So it's more like $400M a year.
