If tweet fails to load, click here. He was kicked out the league for betting on his own games.

24 minutes but pretty good summary of his gambling addiction

Not sure he did do that (maybe he did) but he did work with bookies to manipulate is own stats to cover his debts

Yeah I know I was looking for the right word to put. Idk how to explain. He definitely didn’t see any of the $500 million more than likely

I make so much money on Czech Table Tennis. Martin Huk and Denis Hofman are my dudes. Fade any man named Jiri or Sr.

Manipulating your own stats is pretty much betting on himself. He was fixing games for bookies

Good for him and those who loaned him money

Tennis has a serious match fixing problem at the lower levels of the sport. Can you imagine the level of corruption involved in Russian ping pong?

A guy that only played in like 30 or so games in his career and made a little over two million pre taxes almost certainly didn't wager 500 million gambling, much less accumulate 500 million.

Even if I won $1 million betting on Russian ping pong, I would be too scared to try to collect it.

He didn’t play enough to bet on the games

Messed up part is that he wasn’t terrible. He very well may have had more NBA contracts or at least a career in Europe coming his way. during the games he wasn't fixing he actually looked like a half decent player in Toronto and would be the type of backup big the raptors were missing. 6'11, could shoot, pass, and switchable defender.

You can see the little bit of games he played on he was missing on purpose, making bad decisions. It was egregious

If tweet fails to load, click here. If he was doing this daily he could have grossed $500 million. Grossing and netting is two different things.

Yeah, ask Barry Badrinath about that. Those guys didn’t like to lose and shoved a ping pong paddle up his arse.

That was an interesting read but none of that tells me he was in the 500 million range.
The biggest number mentioned there was he was down 600K and got cut off. Even his biggest stretch there where they are saying he "profited" a million off table tennis is only showing him winning 324K but he had to bet 238K to win that so he was only profiting 86K.
Just saying these are probably some pretty exaggerated numbers.

If he bet 500 million he probably lost 50 million if he is an average better
But he had inside info obviously so youd assume he did better
