I think he has already burned through a lot of money.

Poker == Tennis

lolololol...can't believe it...he will be crushed...can't wait to see some handhistories with him as villain....this will be fun..he really is among the most famous people here in germany, perhaps place 2 or 3 but surely in the top 5 but he is not known for being very intelligent (and thats kind of an understatement)...dont know if this is known internationally, but i can remember that some years ago a pregnant women accused him of being the father of her unborn child and he meant it was sperm-theft...lolololol
and some weeks later, after he made himself to a joke with that comment which was press-released he said something like
i can't be the father, i only slept with her for some secounds...lololololol

I remember filling in some online questionnaire that popped up when i started the PS client. It was about Boris Becker and contained questions about if you know who he is and whether or not it would be a good idea to sign him for Team Pokerstars. Apparently the PS population thought it is a good idea (and i agree). The questionnaire was probably only offered to Euros.

Almost definitely not the same guy, but one of the Ongame high-stakes NL guys plays under name B3risB3cker (or something like that) and is nasty. Haven't seen him in a few mos. though.

Cant believe the amount of disrespect in this thread for one of the all-time tennis greats,even understanding this is a poker forum and not a tennis forum

sorry, didnt rememberd correctly...its some years ago...here
the keypoints of the story translated by me-sorry for my schoolenglish:

the semen-theft in the closet
becker denied at first to had sex with the russian model.
a journalist constructed the bizarre plot of the sperm-theft.
after a dna-test becker made it public that he is the father.
while he denied the importance of the quickie ( "5 seconds,a failure that will hunt me a lifetime long")
ermakova was pointing out his qualities as a lover ("boris was like a young stallion")

---------
Der Samenraub in der Wäschekammer
Becker bestritt zunächst vehement, mit dem russischen Model, welches exakt seinem Beuteschema entsprach, überhaupt Sex gehabt zu haben. Einen Journalisten veranlasste dies zu der bizarren Konstruktion der „Samenraub“-Geschichte. Nach einem DNA-Test bekannte sich Becker schließlich öffentlich zur Vaterschaft. Während er dem Quickie allerdings wenig Bedeutung beimaß („Fünf Sekunden – ein Fehler, der mich ein Leben lang verfolgen wird“) lobte Ermakova in einem Buch die Liebesqualitäten des Ex-Tennisstars: „Boris war wie ein junger Hengst.“
