Unfortunately for his account I think he's for real. I imagine he's either pretty loaded or has a serious drive for gambling (or too desperate to quickly raise capital for something?). Either way, you have to at least admire the agression with which he trades. I hope it's not terminal, I...

A fool and his/her money are lucky enough to get together in the first place :)
