And remember, people have won back-to-back WSOP's before and do they have 50 bracelets yet?

wtf this is obviously not the same.

madsen did it within ONE MONTH of having turned 21. 2 bracelets every world series translates to way more than 50. none of those other pros started that young. the kid is a genius and he is going far. far!

I'm not so sure I agree.

After keeping up this pace for even as little as a few years, he's going to be unbelievably wealthy. Factor the supplemental income from the inevitable endorsements, what's to stop him from retiring at 25? 23?

Basically, I think it's wrong to assume he will dominate for the next ten years just because he can dominate for the next ten years. And, I may be dead wrong, but I'm guessing he'll need at least 10 more years to get to 50.
