Trainwreck Ready to Chase $30M Day to Cover Losses
Trainwreck said he is aiming for a $30 million day after a brutal losing streak on streaming platform Kick, despite hitting a $2.5 million win on Juicy Fruits after betting $150,000 per spin
Tyler Faraz Niknam, best known as Trainwreck, has been dealing with a particularly long and frustrating losing streak on the streaming platform Kick.
The 35-year-old American live streamer has apparently reached a point where he needs to earn between $20 and $30 million a day to balance it all out.
Almost $10 Million in Net Losses
At least, this is what the controversial streamer claimed at the beginning of his stream last Thursday, when he hoped for a $20 million day following a mind-blowing $9.9 million net loss from Waylanders Forge, at the end of no less than 1,115 plays.
The gamer ended up spending $150,000 on spins, a piece of information that he chose to personally share through his stats that he openly displayed for the Valkyrie-created release.
Trainwreck, who also recently hinted that he might put an end to his collaboration with the crypto casino platform and took a three-month break, also complained about the fact that his return to player (RTP) rate had only reached 75%, while the great majority of slot games usually display RTPs ranging between 94% and 97%.
He, however, managed to partially redeem himself after he hit a whopping $2.5 million win from a $150,000 spin during a game of Juicy Fruits by Pragmatic Play. Has his luck finally returned? It remains to be seen.
Nonetheless, his stream ended in disappointment, with his audience seeing him manifest a $30 million day next time.
Mindblowing Amounts
Earlier in the month, a simple misclick when choosing a bonus buy option from five available while engaged in an online slot game of Cyber Ronin by Degen Lab brought him no less than $781,250.
A week prior to that, he won $4 million at a game of Keno, once he reached a massive 81.5× multiplier.
Over the years, the content creator made sure to warn his fans and viewers in general about the dangers of gambling, with special emphasis on chasing losses.
His warnings seem more relevant than ever now, as he had admitted that his current string of bad luck was his worst for five years.
As a reminder, the streamer lost no less than $40 million in 2022.
