Who is Sodapoppin? Was he playing live blackjack for real money during his streak?
Sodapoppin is a popular Youtube figure (or Youtuber) with 700k+ subscribers. He makes vlogs and streams himself playing games like World of Warcraft. In 2014 he started playing live blackjack online and streaming it to his fans.
During one stream he lost $5000 on one hand – watched live by 40,000 people. Was it real money? You can never be 100% sure, but his emotions seemed pretty genuine to us. Of course the casino he was playing at probably turned the whole thing into a pretty good marketing play too!
