1k EUR is a lot to carry in cash. 10k is absurd. I'd guess 95% of people doing it are doing it because they're doing something illegal.

When I played a lot of poker, I would routinely carry 30k or more. A single buy-in could be 10k. The people I played with all did similar things.

Moreover there are some countries (like Germany) where people routinely use a lot of cash to (say) buy a car or a business.
