at the rate he is losing maybe it is profitable to sit at his tables  |

pretty ridiculous how he think he's just on a downswing ; like 90 buy-ins downswings are standard at theses limits rofl reminds me of FGators |

reading his blog, he sounds pretty delusional about this whole affair
he's claiming he's learned more about poker than he ever thought possible during this prop bet: how the fuck do you learn when you're mass tabling a stake lower than you normally play? i've heard numerous reports from people playing against him that he's a lot easier to play against than usual, and this is no surprise. sure, you can learn how to take beats and learn how to persevere but you won't learn anything specific to the game itself: doing this requires LESS tables and indepth hand analysis
he also claims you should have a 100bi bankroll as a MINIMUM for a stake you wish to play...what the fuck? sure it might help you psychologically, but realistically the odds of going on a +50bi downswing are so unlikely for a true winner that this golden nugget of advice is laughable |

yes he is a delutional idiot if he thinks a 100bi downswing is normal, i dont know if he has an edge but i dont think its over 0.5bb/100 |

will be interesting if he gets SNE w/ time to spare and has to try to play less tables and actually focus on profiting to be able to win the bet (since profit must be > 0) |

either way ur advice is bad cuz if he played higher he would of lost more money since its apparent he can't even breakeven at 1/2 and is down 100buyins |

I thought it made sense assuming he was a winner at the higher stake but obviously can't handle so many tables even if its at a lower stake. IF he did play higher stakes maybe he could of just added 2 tables or something and played a ridiculous # of hours.
But you probably knew what I meant. |

You won't believe how many of these regulars are actually breakeven players but put in so many hands that they profit huge from rakeback/bonusses.
There's this guy on 3/6 on iPoker and he breaks even but makes 30k in rakeback + rakeraces a month :| |
