Neymar wins $20K in online poker but also makes 30 times that per week

Mad stacks, yo.

FC Barcelona star Neymar is having a whole lot of fun playing online poker.

Jogando online, olha o que eu faço ROYAL STRAIGHT FLUSH ♠️♥️♣️♦️ #Poker

The 23-year-old soccer prodigy showed off his winnings, thanks to a royal flush, that total to just more than $20,000. For the average person, THAT’S AMAZING. For Neymar, it’s chump change.

With his €12 million/year contract and endorsement deals, Forbes has his worth projected to be at $31 million.

AKA this poker haul is sweet, but it’s not even ONE PERCENT of what Neymar hauls in this year. He makes more than $20K per week.

Now, he can finally reenact the Joker’s scene in The Dark Night.

Or, a better less morbid idea: He could buy 20 Phunkeeducks, which would almost equip enough players to field a soccer game! Imagine that!
