Matt Berkey has accused Nik Airball of “scumming” people in private poker app games. As the pair prepare for their high stakes heads-up grudge match, the insults continue to come guaranteeing that sparks will fly when they finally face-off.
Matt Berkey Calls Nik Airball a Scammer
Nor do I care that as of 2020 @nikairball was scumming people in small stakes private app games, not paying out but now suddenly has more money than god🤔

The feud kicked off when Nik Airball called Matt Berkey a scammer, during an interview with Doug Polk where he also fired shots at Garrett Adelstein. He said that someone who calls themselves a coach but yet can’t beat the games is nothing but a fraud.
Poker coaches who can’t even win in poker games are disingenuous and doing the community a disservice. I’m here to expose Berkey as a fraud. I play for the people. https://t.co/ObkmfVZJAV

Where did Nik Airball’s Wealth Come from?
Nik Airball, real name Nikhil Arcot, arrived on the poker scene a relatively short time ago, seemingly with a massive bankroll that could withstand the stresses of the biggest games around.
But where did his bankroll come from?
Airball is known to work in the world of investment banking which, as we all know, pays extremely well. But at his relatively young age, will his wage be enough to pad out frequent losses from pots of hundreds of thousands of dollars?
Many observers think not and opine that there must be another source of income.
Matt Berkey provided no evidence for his claims that Nik Airball refused to pay out to players on his poker app club, but Airball is yet to respond and deny the accusation.
Can you explain how a young guy with a normal job was able to show up to high stakes Hustler with such a huge bankroll?
Why is it so tough to clarify this?

Todd Witteles was making enquiries on Twitter this week, but instead of anyone coming up with a believable answer, all he got was short shrift, telling him to keep his nose out of everyone’s private business.
One poster wrote:
“He is an investment banker and on the street before they were talking about being a triple threat. Born rich. Married rich and made yourself rich and airball said well I’m two of those. Born rich and his wife’s parents are extremely rich according to him. But who cares. Not our biz”
Maybe Nik Airball was simply born rich. We don’t know, but maybe others that are in the know about the rumours that Airball scammed his poker app club members will come forward and tell us what really happened.
