Love or Hate him. There is no in between. Nikhil Arcot or better known as ‘Nik Airball’ is a supposed investment banker turned high stakes cash game regular on popular poker stream, Hustler Casino Live.
Besides being a very polarizing personality, Nik Airball is also quite unique in the way that no one really knows much about him.
His past is unclear, leaving many poker fans to wonder - Who is this young guy, where did he come from, and what is his mysterious source of cash?
In this video, we will cover all of that and more, including his many wild appearances on HCL and the feuds both on and off the felt, one of which ended up costing him over $1 million, to finally what his future in poker really looks like.

There's no way he made his money working for an investment bank for a few years. What job pays 20+ million to a kid for a couple of years? What type of investment bank gives that much money to a new hire freah out of college. The only public information on KAL shows 13 employees, lol.

Theres no way he is a successful investment banker ;)) If he was smart we would have quit poker a long time ago. Poker News wrote that he was down 8M in 1y and a half- this was in September! If you have noticed his stack is way smaller than what it used to be...he always had the top stack at any table. And lately he is playing at the 20k stacks "kids table" at HCL ;)) Its poker addiction, he will go bankrupt at some point.. if I were to bet- a few months at most 1y from now

@DerikAasansLevelUpTravel 7 месяцев назад

Most of these guys on HCL are just rich. Have the balls to put it out there. Get a couple wins from coolers and suddenly are comfortable at extreme stakes. Not the best players, half the issue at these extreme stakes is not being scared money. Nick Airball fits this mold. Garrett and Andy are just super legit and the sharks on these type tables

As a former investment banker I can assure his bankroll did not come from his 2-3 years as an investment banking analyst. Kids fresh out of school make $100k-$150k in their first year to $300k in their 3rd year. After taxes and living expenses in NYC, Just do the math.

@Deeperharderfaster 7 месяцев назад

I agree. And I'm not even from the states. I'm an European and it seems highly unlikely he got that kind of cash out of that type of job as fast as he claims. Which kind of lead me to think it's illegal money somehow. Or inherited. He just doesn't want to admit it because saying it was hard honest earned money is the way to go with the feds.

And also Nick Vertucci is looking very suspect. He looked very strange during the Robbi debacle with his hand signals and pink sunglasses. Also was running super hot before this hand and then dropped off a cliff after it. Recently he has folded a nut flush draw 3 way when his opponent had a straight flush draw and ultimately his opponent ended up hitting the one outer. And then he called with something like 10j 9j in a game with Phil hellmuth, and ran it twice and won both streets. He has been getting over confident and it starting to show postle like qualities

If you have 4 million in solid investments it’s gonna generate between 400-600,000 a year (that you only have to pay 25% tax on ;). Investment bankers get paid based on the payout of the funds they invest so if he managed or created a fund that saw itself more than double it’s easy to see how his bonus could have easily been 7-8 figures. He could have walked away with 10-20 million, then stuck half in the investment streets wherein he’ll get 1-2 million a year for life. Not unfeasible at all.

I like Alex's content, but he is way out of his depth assessing what Nik would have made as an "investment banker". Comp for the levels he had (analyst and associate) is pretty standard across firms even boutique ones. Even a VP in bulge bracket firm in New York or Los Angeles is not netting enough to create any significant wealth. The money comes when you can bring business to the bank and generate fees and that was years away from Nik's level. Any wealth he has likely comes from family. He may have parlayed some money he got from the family into a larger sum, but my guess is he is still living off the fam.

Haha I don’t disagree… was just throwing out theories or speculations
