Not always the case. The player could have been playing staked/backed for a large segment of the winnings and let go. Have seen a few good players that just have to much gamble in them and burn their backers by donking off their rolls.
One thing I used to do in the final 18 players in a deep tourney would be googling them and seeing if they owed,where playing backed or had chat histories that implied tilt. Was always interesting to see some guys that had amazing OPR but had cut through so many backers.
I stopped by this thread because I was interested in putting some funds back on Stars this weekend and was thinking of this option.
Would be interested if a more established account with history of transactions in this manner was around.
