According to Scott Montgomery's twitter, he was robbed at Bellagio in Las Vegas the other day. It all occurred in a bathroom during a tournament break. A person corned Montgomery and demand all his money or else he would be shot/stabbed. At first, he refused to give up his money, but when the man started to unwrap something in his hand, Montomery decided to hand over the $2k he had in his pocket.

It's hard to say what when down here. He may have been flashing his cash earlier while buying drinks or something. If a thief sees such a thing, it triggers off a mark/target alert. He then waits for his chance. Not saying he was flashing cash around. It may have been completely random. My first guess is someone knew he had some bank on him, or they would not have went to such risk in robbing him. You just don't rob some one in a public space to get 40 or 50 dollars. This is why I think somehow, someone knew he had a pocket full of money on him. Sad that this type of crime happens but it happens every day. This time it just happened to someone well known. Sad sad sad. Be careful out there fellow members and try not to carry big amounts of CASH unless it is absolutely needed.
